Of course, I was WRONG about two George Martin tales in the anthology. I was glancing through the TOC too quickly, and saw his name by the introduction and jumped to the wrong conclusion. March is my stay at home and work very hard month this year. I hope to get my garden off to a good start as well as my new book! Robin Hi Nadine!

Jackie is the amazing artist for the current UK covers for my books. If you've never visited her site, follow the link in her post above. And take a bit of time to explore her passion for ginger cats! It's well worth it. Robin Jackie, thank you so much for dropping by!

I am a bit impatient, I'll admit, for Brandon Sanderson to tie up things at the Wheel of Time and get back to writing in his own worlds!!! Spoiled me with those first books, he did! Robin Hi Mike!

If I can come up with an absolutely wonderful tale, one that fits my characters and world and one that I think my readers would love, then I'd go back. But until then, I'd rather leave it as it is.

I took a lot of Latin in high school, and of course that meant studying a lot of Roman history. Someday, I do want to see what remains of that time; it seems so real to me and so significant to the world. Write and blog. Well, the blogging is dangerous to the writing hours. So I try to stay on a schedule and say, "This much time, and no more!" The best, of course, is to write my pages every day before I venture out on the Internet.

I have already re-read the books about FitzChivalry and the Fool/Beloved/Lord Golden. You are my new favorite fantasy author. Do you have any interest in returning to that series so we can get to know the Fool more completely? I confess that I was very unsatisified with the ending of Fool's Fate. Given that those with the Skill could extend their lives beyond normal human years, I was truly hoping that Fitz and the Fool would form a bond, as the Fool was truly not human. Their story touched me and left me hungry for more. Robin, I just came across your books about 2 months ago, and finished three of your series.

Getting into his writing was one of the greatest discoveries of these past few years......truly awe-inspiriing talent. For me, WOT is the greatest series I've EVER come across.........live in that world all day.....lol. Of course, Brandon recommended Robin, so now I frequent this site as well!

I have to say that I am looking forward to reading both Dragon books again when Dragon's Haven comes out, and for those that haven't yet got their hands on Dragon's Haven it is even better than the first. So loved it. Beautiful day here and I have the warmest fire burning. Have one more painting to do and then will have finished another book and then I have a tantalising manuscript waiting for me to loose myself in. Such a treat. Can't wait, but have to get the art done for this picture book first. best wishes to you and all your felines from me and mine. Jackie Hi Robin

Can you believe it will be the Tenth anniversary for the festival? Seeing you there would be great. Curling up in blankets and reading sounds great. I'm midway through a Patricia Briggs werewolf tale and wish that finishing it was my task for the day! I made a mistake and started with the second book, but I'm still enjoying her story. Today is gray and going to rain here, but I still have to go outside and get some work done at our old place. We need to move a big pile of unsplit firewood. I'm going to be wet, muddy and cold before we are done! But at least it will be finished, and we will be one step closer to being able to put in some rhododendrons.
