Re: The Chieftain (1:10am March 1, 2013):

Thanks again for so many great comments! Kai Wong, I enjoyed your comment about your parents trying to set you up with a husband from your community. Some aspects of family relationships transcend time & cross cultures, for sure.

I thought I'd take the opportunity to add here that I love Fresh Fiction. And not JUST because they've given me wonderful reviews. ;) Really, Fresh Fiction is a great group, & this site is well done.

Re: The Chieftain (10:47pm February 27, 2013):

I should tell you that the photo is of a faery glen on the Isle of Skye that I visited on my trip to Scotland with my daughter. It was such an amazing, magical place that I used it for a couple of key scenes in THE CHIEFTAIN. If you want to see more pictures, I made a book photo album for each of THE RETURN OF THE HIGHLANDER books & posted them on my website, www.MargaretMallory.com, on the Videos & Such page.

Thanks for all the comments! D Kenney, I can definitely relate to mom finding out what happened before you walk in the door. :)

Re: The Chieftain (3:32pm February 27, 2013):

Aww, thanks again for the lovely comments about my books! Tamra, I will be at the RWA (Romance Writers of America) conference in Atlanta this summer & can't wait to crash your party. Theresa & Ada, I'm glad you enjoy the intertwined relationships and histories of characters in small communities. :)

Re: The Chieftain (12:58pm February 27, 2013):

I'm loving the comments, thanks! And a special thank you to those who said nice things about my books. :)
I like connected stories, so I really enjoyed bringing cousins, siblings, & best friends into each others' books in this series.

Re: The Warrior (11:52pm November 1, 2012):

We are on a road trip. After riding in the car all day, it was such a treat to plug in my laptop & read all your messages. (By the way, I do love those old musicals.)

Thanks!
Margaret

Re: The Warrior (4:45pm November 1, 2012):

Re: Knight Of Passion (9:58pm July 23, 2010):

Thanks for all the congrats on my new release. :)

Re: Knight Of Passion (4:28pm July 23, 2010):

Deb, that man is something, isn't he? WAIT til you see the guy on the cover of my next series. Oh my. I'm very lucky with these covers--my publisher's art dept does a great job for me.

Re: Knight Of Passion (4:25pm July 23, 2010):

Thanks, Sara, for removing that question mark. :)

Re: Knight Of Passion (4:08pm July 23, 2010):

I want you to know that if you see a loose question mark after "I do love to hear from readers," I didn't put it there! I really do love to hear from readers.

Margaret

Re: Knight Of Passion (3:04pm July 23, 2010):

I don't think I could write a heroine who wasn't strong. And if I'm going to spend months writing a book with a man I made up, he may as well be good-looking. Very good-looking. ;)

Margaret

Re: Knight Of Passion (2:08pm July 23, 2010):

Oh my, now I have to apologize for the mistakes I made in that previous comment! I'm working on a small screen, propped up in bed with ice on my ankle, with my own hero talking to me while I'm trying to type. Sorry!

Margaret

Re: Knight Of Passion (2:03pm July 23, 2010):

Thanks so much to those of you who said you love my books & to those who said they want to try them out! I'm glad to hear you like don't mind the heroine driving the hero a bit mad. ;)

Re: Lake Magic (12:33pm March 2, 2010):

I love hearing the road-to-publication stories of other authors. As Lucy says, writing isn't for wimps!
Great blog. :)
