There is a reply to my initial message to the author on page 1, but so far I haven't recieved a reply to my second message explaining what LG15, and CiW are, and pointing her to different videos and threads.

Has anyone emailed Miles or Mesh?
I have been contemplating firing off an e-mail to them also, but I am unsure about all of the copyright issues and stuff, so I would rather wait and let the author reply again, after having more information.

Remember that it takes 12-18 months for a novel to be published by a publishing house (meaning not one of those self-publishing or vanity press deals).
This link from some romance writer's site (I am not a big fan of romances) gives a good outline of how long the publishing process takes. It seems like this is a pretty cool coincidence to me.

CASSANDRA
Gender: Feminine
Usage: English, Greek Mythology (Latinized)
Pronounced: ka-SAN-dra [key]
From the Greek Κασσανδρα (Kassandra), which possibly meant "shining upon man", derived from κεκασμαι (kekasmai) "to shine" and ανηρ (aner) "man" (genitive ανδρος). In Greek myth Cassandra was a Trojan princess, the daughter of Priam and Hecuba. She was given the gift of prophecy by Apollo, but when she spurned his advances he cursed her so nobody would believe her prophecies.

I dont think there will be. The stories are totally different.
