He of the electric blue eyes and amazing voice! I STILL have a Robby Benson crush! Isn't ICE CASTLES like the best chick flick EVER? I wanted to thank all of you for having me and Hellion for inviting me! It's so lovely to discuss "our" beloved genre with people who speak the same language. Smoochies to all of you! :) Oh Santa–Robby Benson!!! He of the electric blue eyes and amazing voice! I STILL have a Robby Benson crush! Isn’t ICE CASTLES like the best chick flick EVER?

ONCE AN ANGEL and A WHISPER OF ROSES remain two of my personal favorites. I loved the music that went with them too! Morgan and Sabrina's theme from A WHISPER OF ROSES was NOVEMBER RAIN by Guns 'N' Roses and for Emily and Justin it was another Guns 'N' Roses tune--DON'T CRY. Thanks Hellion!

If anybody has trouble finding SOME LIKE IT WICKED in Wal-Mart, try this weekend or next week. Appparently there was a glitch in the Atlanta warehouse and a lot of the stores on the east coast and in the south didn't get ANY of their August books. They're supposed to come in this week and they've promised to keep them out until the end of September. Thanks Sin!

Believe me--if Jack had seen me yesterday, he would have run screaming from my bed! I wasn't able to come back here until this morning because I could barely drag myself out of it. But I'm feeling better this morning--temp down from 101 to 99.4 so I think I just might live :) (And doesn't it break your heart when you're stuck in bed sick but feel too sick to read?)

It was great to see you in San Francisco! You were just as charming and sweet as always :) And I'd still like to believe the genre has room for all sorts of fantasies, whether they be the "boy next door" or the "rogue next door". I guess I get around some of the "political correctness" by making my heroes highwayman and the like. There's just still so much power in the "taming of the beast" mythos. I think it's one of the reason I write historicals, because I can still access that primal fantasy. There are a few writers who can do it in contemps but not as many--Anne Stuart and Christina Dodd come to mind. Hi Sara Lindsey! It was great to see you in San Francisco!

I think a historical heroine can be flawed but she still has to be likable. I want her to be somebody I would enjoy having as a best friend! Oops, I hit SUBMIT too fast, Kathy!

As always, it was marvelous to see you again. What a great interview, Capt'n Jack! Isn't he an utter delight? I am saving myself for your book, Terri but try as I might I keep hearing its siren's song which means I'll probably start it tonight. Yes, I'm that weak. 'Yours Until Dawn' remains one of my all time favorite reads. I recently read 'Nobody's Darling' and fell in love all over again. I had Robby Benson (not the singer) in my head the whole time which, for me, made it an even better experience. LYG, Santa Hi Terri!!

Capt and I had a BLAST reading your books in college! Oh the memories! I love how your stories suck me right in and I can't put them down until the last page....then I'm reading it all over again the next month! I was tired for many a college course when a new book came out... I can’t believe I almost missed the day THE Teresa Medeiros was interviewed! Capt and I had a BLAST reading your books in college!
