YUM!"

Holy crow, he's PERFECT. Those eyes? Yes, please! Can't you just see them ringed in green, and markings creeping up around his neck and shoulders???

Well done, Miss Chris!

I have a major crush on Karl Urban...

...and my Alex Pettyfer knowledge begins and ends with Magic Mike. *blush*

In early March, Lena Corazon posted this piece (http://lenacorazon.com/2013/03/04/cas...) casting Hollywood actors as the characters in The Shrilugh Saga.

What do you think? Do you have hotties (aka actors) or divas (aka actresses) in mind when you read the books!

Do share! Inquiring minds want to know!

...with some fava beans and a glass of Chianti. *grin* Totally joking, of course!!

Yes. It's tres important.

OH MY GOSH, I can't wait!

It's awful hard not to like Opal. She's 100% sweet. <3

Chris wrote: "YES Mostly sort of... couldn't you have given us more time between pages LOL... I mean look at the paragraph before ;-)"

I know. It was sort of cruel. But it had to be done. :)

Chris wrote: "no way!!! It was at least a year since Merryn looked at me strangely and said... "Yes. Rein left. Didn't he tell you?" *sigh*"

LOL. Einstein thought time was relative, right?

Chris wrote: "better be!!! ;-D I thought waiting a year for more Rein was hard enough!"

SIX months, Chris!! Maybe it FELT like a year, but it was only six months...

*grin*

Chris wrote: "So is "white hair" and "husband" the same man or should we continue to wonder? :-D


The floors were covered in wide planks of dark wood that met with white walls abundant with family photographs. ..."

Sorry to be totally un-mysterious, but yep, 'white hair' and 'husband' are the same dude. :)

Chris wrote: "Sometimes the best parts are where you want to club the author over the head.... This one did a fine job of that young lady...


Two days’ journey from the honeymooner’s tent under the ancient Shr..."

*grin* Up to that point were you still in denial about Brig being alive?

Suma wrote: "How long did it take for you to write book 1 and book 2?"

Oh my goodness - a long time. These two books started out as one rough draft; it went through several metamorphoses. From start to finish, for these two, it took about four years. During that time, however, I completed the rough drafts for books 3 and 4, so hopefully my turnaround time on those titles will be much, much faster!

Oh my gosh, I had so much fun writing those horseback scenes. :) Cocky much, Rein?

:)

Chris wrote: "I stick by my assumptions, Leo was a lucky man...

She walked to him, completely unafraid, patting his arm as she looked him up and down, finally resting those eerie blue eyes on his own. He looked..."

Rein, given his position with the Guard, has some knowledge about the Ancient Abominations. Even though Rein had been to Brig's world once before, he'd not encountered any humans. So to finally see those strangely colored eyes - it was unnerving. And doubly so when he finds himself taken in, so to speak, by a woman who (in the right circumstances) could potentially become a Truly Awful Thing.

*grin* Love you too, girlie! <3

Chris wrote: "I am gathering that ... her and Briggs eye color sure seems to be a heavier topic in 1 then I noticed the first time around... but I feel that way about Daniel Creigs eyes too LOL"

Oh man. His eyes are Stop You Dead In Your Tracks blue!

I adore Grandma Opal. She has a very humble, but very important role to play in book three!

Chris wrote: "Super Fan, Stalker both start with "S" LOL (really it is a joke...) Liz calls it Street Team... but yes, I very much like the world you made. Kudos!"

I love that term, Street Team!

And for those of you who don't know, Chris is talking about Liz Schulte, another FABULOUS indie author. You should definitely check her out!
