CONTACT C.S. FRIEDMAN
Celia loves hearing from fans, though her writing schedule does not allow her to answer mail as often as she would like. Because many fans ask her the same questions, she has tried to provide the answers on this web site, and on her fan site www.merentha.org.
Soooo…..If you have questions to ask, please read through the material on both those sites (especially the FAQ) before writing! Hopefully the information you are looking for is there.
You can contact the author using the form below.
