Hi Sandy! That’s the reason I had to make my heroine a panther.

Re: The Lord Of Illusion (3:50pm February 3, 2012):

Hi Rich! We must have been posting about the same time. I would have to agree with the inventions and discoveries...there's so many things we still don't know...so many possibilities!

Re: The Lord Of Illusion (3:48pm February 3, 2012):

Fascinating answer, Rachel!

We have a lot in common, Carla. :}

Hi Linda! Wow! That would cover it all, and it would be incredible

Hi Ilona! Another wonderful answer!

Hi Ntzee! I agree!

Hi Kathleen! I have the same sort of vision for Verdanthame...I think I miss my forests after living in the desert for so long.

Hi Patti! Very clever. :}

In fact, all of you ladies have given such creative answers, I'm so very impressed!

Re: The Lord Of Illusion (1:25pm February 3, 2012):

Hi Colleen! Calm a beast...that would be fascinating.

HI Debbie! Another great answer! And thanks so much, Debbie!

Re: The Lord Of Illusion (1:06pm February 3, 2012):

Hi Gayle! Finding my glasses would be handy...I'm always misplacing them...usually on my head. :}

Hi Marjorie! I absolutely agree!

Hi Audra! I would love to spend less time on the freeway! And it would be fabulous to never have to fly in a plane again.

Hi Jeanne! Insightful comment...I often deal with the issue that with great power comes great responsibility.

Hi G.! Absolutely! I keep wanting another just for fun, though. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:31pm August 4, 2011):

Hi MaryAnne Banks! Thank you for commenting!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:29pm August 4, 2011):

Short & sweet, Deb Pelletier. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:28pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Linda Hall! Reading has always been an escape for me, as well.

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:25pm August 4, 2011):

Me too, Lisa Richards! I can never match the vision in my head with the casting. I think it's because whatever I imagine is always better. ;}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:24pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Jennifer Beyer! She's one of my favorite authors, and for one of the same reasons! I'm reading Namah's Kiss right now, and loving it, of course. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:21pm August 4, 2011):

Thanks much, Robin Daily!

Then I'm glad we met, Lynn Lanzon. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:13pm August 4, 2011):

Thank you for the kind comment, Jennifer Beck!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:12pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Patricia Kasner! I have to say, this one is my very favorite. :}

That's the magic for me too, Ntzee Thao!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (4:16pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Colleen Conklin! I seem to have struck a common chord with many readers here. Thank you for commenting!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (4:15pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Patti Paonessa! I feel the same way.

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (4:14pm August 4, 2011):

Me too, Sue Farrell.

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (4:13pm August 4, 2011):

I hope I can manage to do so, Denise Boyd. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (4:12pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Ellen ONeill. Glad I could do that. There's something special about the sound of a leather saddle.

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (4:11pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Donna Newman. Thank you so much!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (4:10pm August 4, 2011):

That's so true, Cindy Olp! Thank you for sharing!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (1:35pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Tammy Sommervold! So very glad to.

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (1:35pm August 4, 2011):

Me too, Renee Brown. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (1:34pm August 4, 2011):

What a lovely compliment, Cate Sparks. Thank you kindly.

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (1:34pm August 4, 2011):

LOL, Silvana Moscato! Good to know. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (1:32pm August 4, 2011):

My pleasure, Leisa Prater. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:10pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Peggy Roberson! What a pleasure to read your comment. I haven't thought of my writing as old school, but perhaps you're right. Not much training here, just a passion for telling a story. Or living it, I guess. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:06pm August 4, 2011):

Thanks much, Wilma Frana!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:06pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Jean Patton. I try very hard to do that, especially with fantasy, since I have to make a world of magic somehow believable. I hope I manage to do that with you. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:04pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Anthonia Sharp. Magic & legend are my passions. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:03pm August 4, 2011):

Hi different Pam Howell. :} Good to hear!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:03pm August 4, 2011):

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:02pm August 4, 2011):

Glad you found it interesting, Pam Howell!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:01pm August 4, 2011):

Hi Vickie Hightower! Lovely to hear!!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (12:00pm August 4, 2011):

That's a great way of putting it, Sandra Spilecki. Thank you for sharing!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:59am August 4, 2011):

Hi Karen Gervasi! I hope I can manage to do that for you. :}

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:58am August 4, 2011):

HI Maureen Emmons. That's my definition of a good book as well. Doesn't matter what it's about, but if the author can suck me in, can make me forget my own problems for a time, I'm a loyal reader.

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:57am August 4, 2011):

Hi Lisa Garrett. No, I don't think it's weird at all, I think the author did her job. You will see your own version of the story and characters, and that's what makes reading so special.

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:55am August 4, 2011):

My pleasure, Mary Preston. Glad you enjoyed the post!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:55am August 4, 2011):

HI Sigrun Schulz! Glad to meet a new reader! I agree, your own imagination makes the book come alive for you, and makes it a personal experience. Best wishes with your writing!

Re: The Lady Of The Storm (11:52am August 4, 2011):

Hi Na S! What happens in the mountain is actually very important to the plot. Hope you get to 'see' my magical world. :}

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (9:23am December 9, 2010):

And one final shout out to Fresh Fiction for hosting me, and all of the fabulous support I've rec'd from them over the years. Thanks a million, with another big hug!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (9:21am December 9, 2010):

Hi Debra! You're so very sweet to stop by and let me know you enjoyed MOONS. Means more to me than I can say. Big hug!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (9:19am December 9, 2010):

My absolute pleasure, Teresa!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (9:39pm December 8, 2010):

I hope you enjoy it, Diane!

I appreciate you sharing your perspective, Stephanie. Thank you for commenting!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (9:37pm December 8, 2010):

Thank you, Clio!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (5:29pm December 8, 2010):

I've always been fond of icing, Anthonia. :}

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (5:29pm December 8, 2010):

That's often true, Mary. Thank you for commenting!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (5:28pm December 8, 2010):

Then you should enjoy B13Moons, Tabitha! Great to hear from you!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (5:26pm December 8, 2010):

Hi Maureen! Thanks so much for sharing!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (5:25pm December 8, 2010):

That's very true, Barbara! Wonderful insight!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (5:24pm December 8, 2010):

Glad you can't resist, Peggy! And hello & bravo to another love at first sight/opposites relationship!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (5:23pm December 8, 2010):

Great comment, Alyson! Oh, and I always consider speaking through comments is like talking among friends, you're allowed to stumble over your tongue, and everyone still knows what you're saying. :}

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (5:20pm December 8, 2010):

Great advice, Kimberley! Thank you so much for sharing!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (12:28pm December 8, 2010):

Thank you so much, Colleen!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (12:27pm December 8, 2010):

LOL, Joyce. Lust works for me, as long as it leads to true love in the end. :}

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (11:23am December 8, 2010):

What a lovely compliment, Alexis, thank you!
I love your story about Bob, a friend until that first kiss. Happy sigh...
Good luck in the contest!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (9:52am December 8, 2010):

Hi April! So was I...until I met my DH. :} Thx for commenting!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (9:51am December 8, 2010):

Hi Barbara! Your relationship sounds like mine. :} I think opposites help balance each other out. Good luck in the contest!

Re: Beneath The Thirteen Moons (9:49am December 8, 2010):

Hi Linda! Great to hear!

Re: The Fire Lord's Lover (9:28am July 1, 2010):

Hi Patricia! Good to hear. :}

Re: The Fire Lord's Lover (11:29pm June 30, 2010):

You are very kind, AC. Big hug.

I have to agree, Gladys. It would be like wearing a tuxedo every day...and my fellas would shudder at the thought. :}

I did work very hard on this book, Peggy, and I truly appreciate that you recognize it. Thank you so much for the kind comment.

Re: The Fire Lord's Lover (7:51pm June 30, 2010):

Colleen: My pleasure!

Hi Alyson! Gloves first sounds very nice! :}

Unsure about the ice age, S, but it is very cold in England, so they needed warm clothes.

Hey, Erin! Waving! Thanks for stopping by!

That's so great to hear, Brenda! :}

LOL, Vickie!

Thank you, Maude!

Hi Mary! Neither would I. ;}

I manage to get my characters out of them pretty quickly, Martha.

Thanks for all the great comments, ladies. You're the best!

Re: The Fire Lord's Lover (3:16pm June 30, 2010):

What a lovely wish, Nikki. Thanks so much!

Re: The Fire Lord's Lover (2:25pm June 30, 2010):

Oh, Ilona, Yes! Yes! You may absolutely try it on Dominic! ;}

Re: The Fire Lord's Lover (2:24pm June 30, 2010):

Hi Pat!
I do try very hard. I hope any mistakes I may make are small enough that they don't interrupt the story. Your comment means a lot to me...thank you so much!

Re: The Fire Lord's Lover (11:32am June 30, 2010):

Same here, Theresa. :}

Re: The Fire Lord's Lover (11:31am June 30, 2010):

Hi Jacqueline! So glad you're looking forward to it. Music to my ears. :}

Re: My Unfair Lady (12:09pm December 5, 2009):

Linda: I've started a new Georgian Fantasy romance series titled THE ELVEN LORDS. The first book, THE FIRE LORD'S LOVER is releasing July 2010 (already on pre-order on Amazon). You can read the history of the world on my website. This series is a bit more dangerous than the RELICS series...just the way my muse was going. :} Thanks so much for your interest in my books!
Debra & Audra: Wow! You ladies rock! Thanks so some for your very kind comments.

Re: My Unfair Lady (10:07pm December 4, 2009):

I think that might happen to every writer, Kai. Even multi-published ones. :}

Re: My Unfair Lady (8:45pm December 4, 2009):

Mary Anne: I think you'll find a lot of good friends in RWA.

Sherry: My most amazing pusblisher sponsored the contest, so I'll pass on your thanks. :}

Re: My Unfair Lady (6:03pm December 4, 2009):

Good idea, Marjorie! Sometimes it helps to rest the muse.

Re: My Unfair Lady (5:28pm December 4, 2009):

Nancy: Very cool! I wish you luck!

Barbara: Thx much!

Catherine: So great to hear that I could be helpful. Best wishes with your writing!

Colleen: My pleasure!

Theresa: Thx for commenting. :}

Rebekah: Thank you for the lovely comment.

Cherie: I keep several notebooks scattered around the house, so I know exactly what you mean. :}

Re: My Unfair Lady (11:15am December 4, 2009):

Woops. I must have missed you, Willard. No worries, as these are only suggestions, and what I do. You can use one or all, or add your own. I don't think there's any right or wrong way to create something, it's all within the writer's own vision. Thanks much for the comment!

Re: My Unfair Lady (11:11am December 4, 2009):

Jane: What a great way to get a story idea! Thanks for sharing. :}

Jill: Great new word. An 'enjoyer' of books, it is!

Gayle: Thank you for the lovely comment. I adore readers, myself. :}

Michelle: So glad you found my post interesting.

Mary Anne: Are you a member of Romance Writers of America? If not, I strongly urge you to join, including a local chapter. My group has a chairperson specifically to match up critique partners in our group. There are also on-line critque groups, where you post your work, and the members critique it. I wrote my first book without even knowing about RWA, so it's certainly possible, but, life is so much easier/more fullfilling now that I can share with other writers. I wish you the very best with your career!

Stacey: Again, I adore readers. :} Thank you for the kind post.

Pamela: I absolutely agree! Thx so much for your interest in my books.

Thanks, Jo!

Margay: Err, yes. I have to be careful with the time I spend in research...like hunting for treasure sometimes!

Thanks, GS!

Ah, Jane, we have the same advice, I see. :}

Thank you for the kind comment, Maureen.

Re: My Unfair Lady (11:58pm October 26, 2009):

I'm glad you enjoyed the letter, Rosemary. Thank you for the kind words. :}

Re: My Unfair Lady (5:43pm October 26, 2009):

I love 'loverly', Mary Anne. Thanks so much for commenting.

Re: My Unfair Lady (4:13pm October 26, 2009):

Wow! Thanks so much Stefanie...and I do hope you have a hard time putting it down. :}

Re: My Unfair Lady (2:52pm October 26, 2009):

Thank you so very much, Theresa! I hope you enjoy reading it.

Re: My Unfair Lady (1:22pm October 26, 2009):

I was hoping that readers would enjoy the letter, Brenda. Thx so much for letting me know!

Re: My Unfair Lady (1:21pm October 26, 2009):

Great to hear, Patsy. :}

Re: My Unfair Lady (12:43pm October 26, 2009):

Thanks, Kelli Jo!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Diane. Welcome home. :}

Re: My Unfair Lady (12:11pm October 26, 2009):

It's a great pleasure to be here, Penney! Thank you for the kind words.

Re: My Unfair Lady (12:10pm October 26, 2009):

Hi Armenia! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment. It is a fun story, which I hope brightens your day!

Re: Enchanting the Beast (1:06am May 2, 2009):

Thanks so much, Cathie! Great to hear you're looking forward to the book. Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting.

Re: Enchanting the Beast (9:15am April 30, 2009):

Maybe you have the next Olympic gymnast on your hands, Daun!

Re: Enchanting the Beast (7:54pm April 29, 2009):

Thanks so much for playing, Libby! You and your family sound wonderful.

Re: Enchanting the Beast (11:14am April 29, 2009):

So do I, Tammy. I think that's why my first here was a were-lion.

Re: Enchanting the Beast (12:48pm April 29, 2009):

I’m sorry I wasn’t able to comment each time someone posted, so this is a bit long. :}

You sound awesome, Tami. I wish I was a tabby cat.
Sounds kinda scary, LuAnn. :}
I did research on lions, Beverly. Wonderful creatures.
LOL, Daun. When my son was little, I swore he was half-monkey.
A jaguar sounds very cool, Rachael.
Oh, Patricia. You’ll have to let me know what kind of shape-shifters your coworkers are! Sounds like such fun!

Thank you all for stepping into my magical world with me today. Such fabulous, interesting answers!
All my best,
Kathryne

Re: Enchanting the Beast (1:37pm April 28, 2009):

Woohoo, Kelli Jo! You have a very lucky significant other!

Purrfect, Elizabeth! :}

Re: Enchanting the Beast (12:57pm April 28, 2009):

Owls are gorgeous with their large eyes and soft feathers. Nice choice!

Re: Enchanting the Beast (8:53am April 28, 2009):

It very well could be, Margay. :}
