I forgot to check in yesterday. I was in New York City in both of my books.

I'm revisiting a small town near Munich in Nazi Germany, 1939. Great characters and a very peculiar narrator.
My eyes are still in an alternate Montreal, still clueless about where that city block went.My ears are alternating between Africa and western Canada, fighting a drug that create lethal workaholism.
I am currently in NYC 1846 but will be leaving for Calcutta 1922 later this afternoon. Murderers everywhere!

I was a bit late to the party but I'm here in Bingtown now :-D
I'll check back into tomorrow and respond to things. It's so late it's not Sunday any more. I am in the Solomon Islands, the west in fact. But I have just been kidnapped and observed I'm going past the island of New Georgia, which is really where I don't want to be. All those killings I am supposed to be investigating are a few islands back...
I just left the Liveship Vivacia. I'm not sure where I will end up later today.My other location is London about to go on another adventure with Sherlock.
I just left Vermont, where I was jumping between 1908 and present time. Creepy. I am glad it is over.I am heading to Victorian London soon. I got a job as an undertaker.
I'm in London just before the start of WW2 trying to catch Fifth Colunists. I am also there in 1950s living a much less exciting life.
I’m still up (3:00am). I just left Emmy Lake and her friend Bunty in London of 1941. I am going to listen to a few minutes of my audiobook, where my ears will be in London, sometime in the late 1880s to 1890s, although it doesn’t say. S.H. and Dr. W. are involved along with a cast of literary monsters and “their daughters”. The banter has been entertaining me for days.
I will be fishing with Norman Maclean in the afternoon.
My eye re in the middle of nowhere Mozambique, living in a worls of my father's making.My ears are in Washington state, US, dealing with strange things like miniature zombie goats.

I thought that was my eyes as I am just zonked and about to crash, and then re-read it and realised it was exactly what I read.
I'm in two very different places.Firstly, I am in Ancient Caledonia, trying to find the lost eagle standard of the Ninth Roman Legion. My father was leading the legion when they disappeared without a trace.
The second place is an old dilapidated mansion, where I am trying to take care of an old man with a penchant for hoarding anything and everything. He is making things quite difficult for me and I get the feeling I am not entirely welcome.
I'm in North Carolina living in the swamps. The local folk call me the Marsh Girl.I'm also somewhere in space in some weird world I haven't quite figured out. I have the amazing ability to be in many places at the same time. Unfortunately, one of my bodies just had its neck broken. I don't think I'm human.

LOL... yeah... and it's not that English is a foreign language for me as well. To be honest, I did go back 30 sec on my audiobook when I heard that one. :)

Hi I am in Louisiana with my good friends Clete and Dave. A body has just been found nailed to a cross then placed in the ocean.I am hoping we will go out for some Gumbo for lunch.
Those lovely videos with jaunty baby goats hopping and bouncing around will never be the same! I cannot even fathom a miniature zombie goatI loved the fishing trips with Norman and his brother Paul. The last one was with their father too.
I'm in London, 1888 getting to know some doomed women. I'm not sure I'll stay here long.I'm also in ancient Ireland learning how to alter my appearance with glamour from my druid father.
Starting in Florida but will be moving to California quickly as I am traveling on the life journey of an actress.
I'm still in Rye, and also on Isla de los Sueños. I hope to leave both places soon and move on to better things.
I'm in San Francisco, one of the quirky residents in an apartment building owned by a marijuana smoking landlady.
I am living with a man who does not want marriage. His mother wants him married.His mother found me in the slums of Ho Chi Min city. I was happy for the opportunity to come to America. Will I find happiness here or a broken heart?
I’m in a remote cabin on a quiet lake in northern New Hampshire, and I think it’s about to get “scary-as-all-hell”.
I am in Wiltshire, UK, my hubbys birthplace (both real and fictions). It is the 17th century and I am a young bride smarting under the restrictions placed on women.
