Hi, Katariina — I’m so glad you enjoyed SURRENDER and RIDE THE FIRE! I love the new cover for SURRENDER, too, if for no other reason than because it’s historically accurate. The original cover showed Alp-like mountains that couldn’t possibly be in upstate NY, along with a village of tipis. I had specifically asked them NOT to put any tipis because they weren’t used by Eastern Woodlands nations. I just about screamed when I saw it.

But it’s all better now. 🙂

Hi, Bonnie — I recall someone joking about it resembling Captain Kirk’s chair or something. It sure was expensive! Too bad I rarely make use of it. But yes the fireplace and laptop are wonderful in the winter. Maybe that’s why I prefer winter to summer.

So good to see you here!

Thank you, Lina! I appreciate that. Being able to sleep at night makes so much difference.

I have read two books of your historicals: Surrender and Ride the Fire. Love the Surrender’s new cover, one of the favorites of all. I haven’t yet read your contemporarys.

Pamela, I remember your chair when we came to visit. I’m glad most of your pain is gone, but it’s horrible that you still get it when you sit. The laptop and the fireplace sound nice on a cold winter night!

Oh my, Pamela,talk about a dedicated writer to keep going through that kind of pain. I guess if we’ve got the bug, nothing will stop us. Glad to hear you’re feeling somewhat better. Nice office!

Hi, Barbara —

Chronic pain is no fun. It’s life-wrecking, in fact. Thanks for caring. I’m glad to be on this side of that ordeal, though I don’t think things are necessarily going to be easy. Once you have a fake neck, you’ve crossed a line.

I’m glad you’re able to have things that hold meaning for you near, too.

Thank you!

The place really needs dusting at the moment…

Wait till you meet Marc Hunter. 😉

Hi, Renee-Ann,

My parents have a gas fireplace, too. The advantage? They don’t have to haul, split, stack, and carry wood — or clean up all the mess it makes. And it’s still nice and cozy-warm. That’s a lot of work for the nice scent and the crackle.

I’m glad you enjoyed the post.
