Ashen's name was drawn first and shall be receiving a box stuffed with AAD treats, but I also found I had two more bags with a few books and promo goodies from various authors and drew two more names for them - Suzy and Gabrielle. Honestly, the bowl was shaken between each drawing, so it was freaky how it turned out. Then again, Halloween is around the corner, so the weird rules. Again, thank you all for participating - I loved the questions and shared them with others. Quite a few concered with wanting to talk with Jules Verne about his inventive mind :-)Tilly Greenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06199706690951506056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-6678820037094079692010-10-23T10:39:56.671-04:002010-10-23T10:39:56.671-04:00Jennifer, darlin', Johanna Lindsey is one of m...Jennifer, darlin', Johanna Lindsey is one of my favorite authors as well and I'm dying to know how she got started.

Guys, you have such fab questions, and all I...OMG! Guys, you have such fab questions, and all I'd like to know the answers to as well.<br /><br />The funny thing, Jane, is that my current WIP was inspired by Agatha Christie! Kid you not! Love the way the world turns.<br /><br />Mary M, I remember reading Poe back in High School, but a Linda Fairstein mystery I read traced a path of Poe and tweaked my interest in him beyond that scary reading session. Very interested.<br /><br />Hey Deb, have you read Laurie R King? I wonder if she had the same query about women in mind when she took on her series with a female partner for Holmes.<br /><br />Hiya Nicole, you know what, I must confess to never reading Gabaldon. Soon. I'll delve in soon and meet this Jamie I hear so much about :-)<br /><br />Guess what, Sherry, I have the same question for Jayne Ann Krentz! I've read all her books and love them, but often wonder what she changes to write as Quick, Castle and Krentz [and all the other pseudonyms she wrote under for Silhouette!] - they are so different! The last Foster book did not have me laughing, the paranormal ones, but I can say I've cried and laughed while writing scenes before so it would be interesting to know if others do as well :-)<br /><br />Oooo, Tracy [hugs darlin'!], Dumas is a man I could spend hours talking with because he wrote such rich books with messages that resonate today. The Three Muskateers are three men I'd love to spend time with as well.<br /><br />Ding Ding Ding, Catslady, I must know how she feels about her work being mashed. Would she find it falttering or upsetting? But I also want to pick her brain about Darcy - love that man!<br /><br />You know what Rosie, I imagine she does have input, but also realizes that things need to be twisted around to fit the medium. It would be interesting to know how much of a give and take she must endure to see what she wrote come to life.<br /><br />Like I said, fab questions guys, and I just wish we could get the answers!Tilly Greenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06199706690951506056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-37581860315853732782010-10-18T18:47:59.999-04:002010-10-18T18:47:59.999-04:00I would ask Charlaine Harris if she is happy with ...I would ask Charlaine Harris if she is happy with the actors that are portraying her characters in True Blood (meaning were they the actors she imagined) and if she had a chance to change anything, what would it be.<br /><br />rosie0512 @ hotmail . comRosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09902436240578859128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-38238508773194629002010-10-17T17:56:15.691-04:002010-10-17T17:56:15.691-04:00I would ask Jane Austin what she thinks about Prid...I would ask Jane Austin what she thinks about Pride & Predjudice being a classic and so timeless and popular and her opinion on all the variations of her book.<br /><br />catslady5(at)aol.comcatsladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375770995988927860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-42260538327213825392010-10-17T11:36:40.848-04:002010-10-17T11:36:40.848-04:00I would interview Alexendre Dumas (pere) and ask h...I would interview Alexendre Dumas (pere) and ask him who he based The Three Musketeers on, in particular, Athos, my favorite character.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Tracey D<br />booklover0226 at gmail dot combooklover0226https://www.blogger.com/profile/17837337361837154604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-78565664086745916692010-10-17T09:27:21.783-04:002010-10-17T09:27:21.783-04:00When I read Lori Foster's books I laugh my hea...When I read Lori Foster's books I laugh my head off sometimes I would like to know if she laughs to herself when she's writing them?<br /><br />sstrode@scrtc.comSherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00113368398550173018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-7451935660304646982010-10-17T09:25:44.959-04:002010-10-17T09:25:44.959-04:00I would love to ask Jayne Ann Krentz if it ever ge...I would love to ask Jayne Ann Krentz if it ever gets confusing writing under so many names and genres and if she has a favorite to read and write?<br /><br />sstrode@scrtc.comSherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00113368398550173018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-2902044610117207092010-10-17T04:26:35.546-04:002010-10-17T04:26:35.546-04:00I would ask Christine Feehan if she wantted to be ...I would ask Christine Feehan if she wantted to be A Carpathian if she had a Chance?<br />sasluvbooks(at)yahoo.comStacey Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10877466721665434680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-77657898133161639912010-10-17T01:52:18.632-04:002010-10-17T01:52:18.632-04:00whoops email: Nicole.Zoltack@gmail.comwhoops email: Nicole.Zoltack@gmail.comNicole Zoltackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464800543376449290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-77002241428452340092010-10-17T01:51:44.907-04:002010-10-17T01:51:44.907-04:00I would ask Diana Gabaldon who she based Jamie on....I would ask Diana Gabaldon who she based Jamie on.Nicole Zoltackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464800543376449290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31579657.post-79457000511777011902010-10-17T00:20:19.322-04:002010-10-17T00:20:19.322-04:00I'd ask Sir Arthur Conan Doyle- "Were She...I'd ask Sir Arthur Conan Doyle- "Were Sherlock Holmes and Watson really lovers?"
