Hi Jodi! Another thrilling episode in the life of Max and St Mary's, which I could not devour fast enough - thank you for another great read. Ah, Miss Lingoss - the mention of whom reminds me of her nickname, and a chuckle. From the same book, as I recall, was a reference to Carpets and Curtains - or, as I know it, Collars and Cuffs. (Amazing! All are alliterative!). Will we have to wait long for the next TP novel?

Hi Steve, Thanks for your kind message. Fear not - I'm just finishing off Killing Time now and it should go off to my publishers some time this month. To be published next year. I've also wandered off-piste a little and written the story of Smallhope and Pennyroyal. It was supposed to be a short story but I'm up to 98k words so that's me in trouble. With luck that might come out next year as well. All the best, Jodi.

Jodi Taylor:
Hello! Long time reader, first time questioner. I read your response that the surname Meiklejohn for Uncle Albert was an intentional choice. I just realized Mikey and Lady Smallhope share a first name. Might it be a family name for both of them, and possibly the same family? Also, in the US, Mikey and Adrien (or Adrienne) are names commonly used for the opposite gender. Did you consider that?

Whenever I'm in a "MOOD" I listen to your audio books. I love St. Mary's. The Time Police. The Elizabeth Cage Series. Frogmorton Farm. Are you going to create any more series that we can devour? Seriously, your books are such bright lights in such a dreary world, I listen to at least one a week to keep my spirits up. Thank you for writing them. And thank you for CONTINUING onward. I love you!
