(68k at this point) We see his reaction to Mark getting shot, as well as something about DB that might be surprising.

As for Wills and Theo, remember in the Christmas story how Wills mentioned Theo having a meltdown? I'd like to write about that, but we'll see. :-)(less)

Release day!

Have you heard the song, I Loved Her First by Heartland? The first time I heard it, my slashy little heart went pitta pat, and I said "Suppose it was I loved him first? And I thought about Myles, Wills and Theo's second child. And of course Wills would love all his children equally, but because Myles was biologically Theo's, Wills would love him just a little bit more.

That's how I Loved Him First Read more of this blog post »

Tinnean, No One Should Be Alone

Tinnean, Forever

“Sometime during the night, I roused enough to reach sleepily for Quinn. He’s not here, my subconscious grumbled, and I came completely awake. No shit. I want him. You had to wake me up to tell me that? Listen, he isn’t here, so go back to sleep. I want him!”
Tinnean, Not My Spook!

Y'know, I never wrote them flying together. However... They'll be on a private jet on the way home from Paris. It's going to be interesting to hear what Quinn thinks of this. ;-)

Glad to hear you had a great time at Disney World.

I actually have Book 4 done, but Dreamspinner isn't happy with it, so I'll have to see about reworking it. If I can, fine, if I can't... I may have to look for another publisher. :-(

We had a blast at Disney, and I spent the rest of the trip looking for the guy to ask him about the shirt. I never saw him again but it's a big park.

And now that I'm back home I'm about to start re-reading Spy vs Spook again, while awaiting your next installments (hint, hint, hurry !!!)

Fell well,

All my best,

Jack

Jack, that is so awesome! Maybe I'll get one of those made up myself! Now if you'd been in Savannah... I have a good friend who lives there, and this would definitely be something he'd make/wear.

Thanks so much for letting me know, and enjoy Disney World!

message 7: by Jack

Jack Tinn,

I've been in Disney world since Saturday, and I saw the strangest thing yesterday. There was a man walking thru the Magic Kingdom wearing a Polo shirt that had a Logo over the left chest that said "Huntington" and directly underneath the title "Troubleshooter". I'm not sure if this was a real company shirt or an homage to you. I wanted to take a picture of it, but by the time I got my camera out he was gone. I thought to myself "that's not what Wills looks like" (he was in his mid-fifties and a bit out of shape.). But now I want to read the books again.

Have a Happy Day !!!!

Jack

Trisha Harrington I love the spy vs spook series, I really hope there is more to come. I'm a huge fan :)


Tinnean Thanks so much! I'm glad to hear that. I'm waiting to hear back from Dreamspinner if they're interested in it.
