Have you ever seen the video on youtube of this kid from Conestoga riding around Paoli in a convertible and he's singing "Goin' to Paoli" like Will Smith's "Miami"? It's absolutely hilarious. <br /><br />Good to have you here!

I am also from Malvern / Paoli area.

I do my best work (as if I have a right to refer to this as "work" LOL) when I'm annoyed at something in the books. If I were an actor, I'd do much better being the crazies than the normal people; that is for sure. <br /><br />Welcome Jeanie and Frances. I'm always so happy to have new readers and commentary. Frances - I have no affiliation with Ohio - just PA. You might know - was it Anthony Wayne who was buried and dug up and re-buried because there was a family fight about his remains or something? I may have made that up in my head (yeah - as I said - I'd play a good crazy - wouldn't be too far off!) I'll have to look it up. Good luck with the book!Purgatory Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04206226666250028550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-30100219975335178812010-04-26T12:47:23.749-04:002010-04-26T12:47:23.749-04:00Hey, found your blog a few days ago, and I have to...Hey, found your blog a few days ago, and I have to say I love it. It is just too funny.<br />I am re-reading the series, and I am currently on Breath of Snow and Ashes, trying to catch up with you guys. <br />Just read about Lamaze class with Fergus, I know how much you loooove that scene, Carol, and couldn't help laughing when I saw you commenting about it on your You Tube video...<br />Oh, before I forget, just stopped by DG's YT channel, and wanted to also congratulate you guys on being the ONLY website she subscribes to. I am sure she gets a kick out of you...Jeanienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-86204619023301214442010-04-26T11:09:30.528-04:002010-04-26T11:09:30.528-04:00Hilarious post!

I mean, for God's sake, get on with it. <br /><br />I found your post, though, through the Anthony Wayne reference. Do you have any connection to Cincinnati? My new book, The Fairest Portion of the Globe, features Wayne as a major character, commanding the Legion of the United States (as the Army was then called), at Fort Washington in the Ohio country. The main story line concerns his two young subordinates -- by the names of Lewis & Clark -- but Wayne was a crude, profane, and yet somehow noble character whom I just loved writing about!Frances Hunterhttp://franceshunter.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-75920763391697528872010-04-26T10:06:55.693-04:002010-04-26T10:06:55.693-04:00Yay!

She does it in just the right way w/o making it boring or too Bill and Ted's excellent adventure.<br /><br />I love Ian because I really do feel that we get a glimpse of what Jamie was like at that young age. A little wild, rebellious, a little lost, but serious, heart of gold, etc... Except, of course, way more Jamie-esque. <br />Carol, hope your daughter's first communion was wonderful!Sirenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07622232908141767076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-47682688080543712782010-04-25T19:39:07.608-04:002010-04-25T19:39:07.608-04:00I'm uploading a new vid as we speak--and will ...I'm uploading a new vid as we speak--and will be creating part 2 as soon as that's done.

I don't like my Ian being GONE - the DRUMS flashbacks are just to much. I like my Ian right where he belongs.<br /><br />Tracey - loved your comments as well - you're just as freaking funny. :) And you're so right about Ian - I think that's what I love about him so much.<br /><br />I can only imagine how cool it must be to read about people/places that you're so connected to.

Ian is the most FASCINATING character to me in that he can make me literally weep in one sentence and provoke mind-numbing rage in the next. What you described is exactly how I felt during Malva period of ABOSAA--here I was all crying over Ian and his lost love and lost babies and tormented soul, and then a few chapters later he was like, "yeah I couldn't keep it in my pants and I might have knocked up Malva." OCH he is such the juxtaposition of old soul and frat boy. <br /><br />• OMG I knew Carol would be loving the Anthony Wayne references!!! I squeeeed like a schoolgirl when I started hitting those. (Apologies to all you readers who must put up with Carol's and my recollections of Philadelphia-area Revolutionary War haunts we have visited. For us, Valley Forge was like Central Park--just a place to go to hang out.) This book has totally made me want to revisit our old stomping ground (which I haven't done since our parents sold the house in Paoli nearly 10 years ago) and check out the Anthony Wayne movie theater and Paoli historical marker and all that jazz...<br /><br />• Yes, it's true--I can beat all comers at "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon." I was in Taps with Tom Cruise, who was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon. Top that, lasses. ;-)<br /><br />• Just b/c I know Carol got to this part--I have been waiting for four books to have the characters start to meet famous Revolutionary War figures, so how freaking AWESOME was it for my bestie LJ to walk in and be introduced to a NEKKID BEN FRANKLIN?!?!?! Loved that so!Tracey R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06775331935448970772noreply@blogger.com
