You have such a good grasp of the mountain ways and that, coupled with your wonderful way of telling a story could make for many many books to come.<br /><br />I suspect that anytime an author makes a series of books, it becomes a bit more difficult for the latest one. Those of us familiar with Elizabeth will grab the book the minute it comes out. Others might hesitate because they haven't read the others yet.<br /><br />Whatever direction you are going blogger buddy, I'll be going along right behind, waiting for the next new book.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-90590159311977863642010-10-16T13:11:35.024-04:002010-10-16T13:11:35.024-04:00Just back from listening to a fun conversation bet...Just back from listening to a fun conversation between Rhys Bowen, Deborah Crombie, and Louise Penny -- three very good writers.<br /><br />I'm not saying that the next book will be the last Elizabeth book. But you may be sure that after that dread cliffhanger in IN A DARK SEASON, UNDER THE SKIN ends with outstanding business resolved. There are a few tantalizing questions still hanging but not what you'd call a cliffhanger.<br /><br />The direction Herself is nudging me in is good -- and something I've been thinking about. I'm certainly not through with Elizabeth but I don't mind giving her a stress-free, murder-free vacation while I pursue this new avenue.<br /><br />And rest assured, there will be a strong, independent woman in the new book -- maybe even a widow, Joan. <br /><br />That first photo is a goodie, isn't it? It's a hanging curtain of lights and the edge of a globe sculpture.Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-18707055767710240432010-10-16T12:25:52.199-04:002010-10-16T12:25:52.199-04:00Vicki - I'm enjoying your updates!

(but oh how I miss being there this year!).<br /><br />I'm going to be interested in hearing how things go with your Elizabeth series, but you know what - I'm also pretty excited to hear you're thinking of another OR an additional avenue of interest. This could, I would imagine, be very exciting for you.Kaye Wilkinson Barley - Meanderings and Museshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07486129009717476920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-32113688978956329962010-10-16T12:08:14.367-04:002010-10-16T12:08:14.367-04:00As the others have said your writing is great enou...As the others have said your writing is great enough to continue on in other venues, and I shall certainly read your future work. However, it's just a shame that a character like Elizabeth--who is hardworking, independent, and well, real in a sense many women characters aren't--will possibly be nixed for future books. It's pretty hard to find normal women doing normal things (plus a little abnormal mystery work!) in todays fiction. I'll be hoping that the next Elizabeth books is an outstanding success! Enjoy your trip to the really BIG city.<br />TammyTammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131066591477169851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-20319242523207610292010-10-16T11:46:09.768-04:002010-10-16T11:46:09.768-04:00Do I hear you saying there may be no more Elizabet...Do I hear you saying there may be no more Elizabeth books after the next one? That is most definitively in the category of NOT A GOOD THING!!<br /><br />Glad to hear that she's not nudging toward another setting, but I hope that Elizabeth can survive, especially since you've just finished the next one. If it were to be the last one, there could well be storylines 'left hanging,' never to be resolved. Ah well....life goes on and we'll no doubt enjoy whatever you write.<br /><br />Lynne in GAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-44005829698761397182010-10-16T10:19:12.070-04:002010-10-16T10:19:12.070-04:00Glad your having a good time!
