I'm so glad you enjoyed the codas. I missed writing them last year. :-)
They're a surprising amount of work though, in that I have to go back and read where the characters were last in their journey, and try to re-immerse myself in their world.
It's very satisfying when I feel I've got the exact mood and moment. ;-)

Also, the previous blog post re the Green Glass Beads audiobook release (not on Audible). I bought mine from iTunes last night. :)

Did you know that next year is the 20th Anniversary of the original publication of Fatal Shadows? Hooray, Josh, Adrien and Jake! How would you want to see it celebrated?

So far the main idea seems to be I write something new. :-D And THAT I could have thought of myself.

Did you really expect anything different? You know we'll never have enough of Adrien and Jake. :D
My idea was a collection of all the shorts in print plus a few new ones, but nothing as much as a new book. I mean, of course I'd love a new book, but it would take time to write and is it necessary for the plot line to have a whole book? I don't want this to go too far, at the same time I do. lol. So, a shorts and coda collection is my thinking.
A dedicated page on your website with covers and dates for all the editions of A Dangerous Thing? :)

I think most of the shorts are now collected in the print collection of So This is Christmas? Or maybe that's just the IngramSpark edition? But yes, collecting everything is very doable.

Definitely some giveaways! :-)

Oh crud, you’re right I think. I’m not gonna go get it off the shelf and look, but now I’m remembering them at the end. Poo. There goes my idea.

Oops, I think I meant Fatal Shadows, but I’d love to see a page with the covers of the whole series. :)

Thank you for posting this. I would have missed the great interview!
And Josh will be in Paris in March 2020! *nudge nudge, wink wink*

Is that so? *makes big eyes* *pulls up calendar* Now, what do I have planned for March 2020... :D

I made a more detailed comment under «Planning Meetings, Parties...».
Le Salon du Livre is 20-23 March 2020.
I loved the interview, and loved finding out about Livres Gay. Happy to hear that Josh will be visiting Paris, one of my favorite places.

I'm glad to hear this, because in my enthusiasm I didn't think about asking your opinion in advance ;-).

This made me belly laugh. I startled my mom.

I can't sign in to blogspot anymore. That is, I can, but when try to I go back to Josh's page I'm signed out again. It always was a little tricky to get signed on, but I could do it after a couple of tries; not so anymore.
I can live with it now, but I'll be sad if I can only comment anonymously during the advent season.
Is anyone else having a problem? I'm thinking maybe, because there are far fewer comments than there used to be.

I added a comment the other day as "anonymous" and it said it needed to be approved first. So, I guess it's still waiting for that? I rarely ever post comments to the blog because of login issues.

It's the same for me. For a few months now I haven't been able to comment on Josh's blog for the same reasons you mentioned.

I think that just means that Josh reads your comment first before she'll approves it to be seen in public.

Yes, I assumed that's what that meant.

I've got it on moderated status now because the amount of spam messages is UNREAL. I try to go through a couple of times a week and release all the legit posts, so it's possible you got caught in the filter?
