And if you don't have a question, you can pass on to the next person 15:55
Patty Briggs: I'm just glad there are no cameras. We wormed horses today and they shared. I have yellow wormer in my hair, on my jeans . .. and every time I think I have it off my hands I find some more. 15:55Baum Diggity joined the chat 15:55
Zealith: Poor Patty! 15:56
Jessica joined the chat 15:56
MashellyTheMagnificent: lol The less than glorious part of owning a horse. 15:56
Baum Diggity: Too bad we can't wrap it in cheese like with dogs. Not even my cat falls for that one! 15:56
Patty Briggs: The horses look worse. Yellow is not a good color on anyone. 15:56Nyx: 15:57
Baum Diggity:

ManekiNeko joined the chat 16:01
Mina: OK, now officially here! 16:01
ManekiNeko: Haha I had to do the same ^_^ 16:02
Has_mod: Sandra are you ready to ask your question? 16:02
Piper: Elle, will this go up on Hurog later? I have to leave to in a minute to get oldest from dtasc practice 16:02
sandra: As a werewolf Adam could live much longer than Mercy have you thought about using something in Mercy's "almost" daughter of coyote status making her longer lived than a normal human? 16:02sandra: Had it already typed out 16:02
sandra: sorry 16:02
Elle_mod: Piper, I'll put it up as soon as we're finished here. for sure. 16:03
Has_mod: Proudfit and CK are next up but Kkat, Mashelly, Nix need to prep theirs next 16:03
Has_mod: @Sandra No worries 16:03
Piper: Thanks!! You are the best!!! Miss your face! 16:03
Patty Briggs: This is a question that I've struggled with. I personally think the worse curse in the world would be to live forever. It is possible that Mercy might live longer -- but neither I nor she nor anyone but Coyote knows at this point. 16:04Mid_mod: And don't worry if you don't have a question ready yet. We won't tie you down and chain you 16:04

ManekiNeko: before* 16:05
Has_mod: @CK your turn hon! 16:05
Baum Diggity: Are we going to make a habit of these chats, by any chance 16:05
sandra: That point of view does come out loud and clear in your writing (living forever is a curse) 16:05
CarolKat: Jessie seems to be an advocate of Adam and Mercy having a baby, have you rethought that possibility at all? 16:05Angela Beegle joined the chat 16:05
Patty Briggs: CK I've thought about it a lot. I don't see how I can write a UF with Mercy -- and a baby. I am sure they will have kids, I'm just not sure I hate myself enough to try to put that in a book.
I am thinking about ways to do it. 16:06Elle_mod: Hi Mike 16:07

Has_mod: And Kkat, Mashelly, Nix are next up after him but I need to start prepping their questions now because they are after them 16:09
Kkat07: Gotta go for a bit, roommate needs help cooking. 16:09
Patty Briggs: @Proudfit -- I have this idea about putting them in story-time order. So they will start with the oldest occurring story (Samuel's first meeting with Ariana) and gradually work from there. But I'm not certain yet. 16:10Baum Diggity: Ooooh! 16:10
Mina: Nice! 16:10
Elle_mod: I love the idea of story-time order. sweet 16:11

Serendipity: Hi everyone! 16:16
Patty Briggs: Ben needs to . . . heal a bit before he finds true love. He is getting better -- you'll see that in his short story. But I think he has a way to go before he can be a good partner for anyone. Sadly that doesn't mean he won't try . . . 16:17Piper: 16:17
Has_mod: Hey Traci, Serendipity and Patricia! 16:17
MashellyTheMagnificent: lol 16:17
Angela Beegle: I cry every time I read that part where Ben's past comes out. Cry like sobbing. 16:17
Traci: Hey! 16:17
Patty Briggs: @Angela -- me, too. I hate that. 16:18Has_mod: Amanda you're up next for a q 16:18

Mid_mod: Ben gets more loveable with each book 16:19
Patty Briggs: Just FYI - we are having a horrendous windstorm. Sometimes that affects our Internet. So if Mike and I drop off, that's why. 16:19Patty Briggs: The joys of being in the boonies . . . 16:20Has_mod: Guys when i prompt you to prep your questions please just post them when they are done 16:20
Mike: The antenna is waving back and forth, but so far it's still picking up a signal. THe dust storm outside probably won't help internet speeds though. 16:20ManekiNeko: Okies 16:20
Nyx: Patty, are you thinking of Charles and Anna having a baby/child at all? Either through adoption, guardianship, fostercare etc.? 16:21Mina: <3 Charles & Anna 16:21
Has_mod: After WAgirl - Zealith, Saseka and Meiskha are next up so please prep your questions before your are prompted! 16:21
Patty Briggs: Anna is pretty good at getting what she wants . . . and she wants babies. I don't know how she'll manage, but I would put money on her. Poor Charles . . 16:21Mid_mod: Hehe. Go Anna! 16:22
Nyx: Yay! 16:22
Patty Briggs: Not that Charles doesn't want kids. But Anna would risk anything . . . 16:22CarolKat: Love Anna! and poor Bran! 16:22

Has_mod: Ok danishwolf, pinktiff, sarahbb we need to prep your questions then 16:23
DanishWolf: Hi Patty, will you write the Mercy + Alpha & Omega series as long as you have the interest and ideas for new books, or do you have an end already that you work towards? (kind of number of books planned) 16:24Patty Briggs: While we're getting questions -- Night Broken -- the fae want their walking stick . . . just saying. 16:24Has_mod: And Jessica, camille, mina are up next 16:24

Meishka: lol @ Mike 16:26
ManekiNeko: Lol!! Mike thats funny 16:26
Zealith: Thanks for the teaser Patty. 16:27
Patty Briggs: @Mina Poor Leah is right. Why doesn't anyone see how much she has sacrificed -- SACRIFICED (Leah told me to make that all capitals) and how little appreciation she gets. 16:27big city wolf: 16:27
Mid_mod: I loved mercy's reaction to Asil in FB. 16:27

Baum Diggity: I like your Leah voice 16:28

Mid_mod: danishwolf, pinktiff, sarahbb do you have any questions? If not, you can pass 16:29
DanishWolf: Baum.. but that would require the library to have the book. It doesn't yet. 16:29
Angela Beegle: Don't you just hate it when characters talk inside your head? (no, that's not my question) 16:29Baum Diggity: true.... 16:29
DanishWolf: I just asked my question? 16:29
Baum Diggity: sorry dw! 16:29

pinktiff1989: I asked mine.....but I can do another 16:30

Has_mod: guys Im clearing the room 16:32
Mina: Um, how do I get out? *eep* 16:32
Has_mod cleared the room 16:32
Mike: I want that feature for my house, Has. Poof. Spotless! 16:32Angela Beegle: Aaaiiiiieee! That's what you meant by 'clear'! 16:32
Elle_mod: lol 16:32
Traci: me too! 16:32
Serendipity: be vewy vewy quiet. We're hunting werewolves! 16:32
MashellyTheMagnificent: @Mike Don't we all! 16:32
Has_mod: Just to repeat - if I prompt you please post your question when its ready if not please say pass. and if the room is lagging shout it out so we can have a clear room

16:32
CarolKat: On Facebook, there is a promise of a Charles and Anna story, when will that be happening and where will it be posted? 16:33Serendipity: How can we tell if the room is lagging? It just freezes and then BAM 20 tells? 16:33
Jessica: Thanks! 16:33
Serendipity: ooo good question. 16:33
Mid_mod: Ohh yes! The sneaky bribe for the DABWAHA contest 16:34
Traci: did the wind get them? 16:34
Patty Briggs: @CK -- I forgot!! My bad. Yes. I'll get that done this weekend and we'll post it on the blog -- and cross post in Facebook. 16:34Has_mod: Guys we will be changing the questions into a free for all - if that's better it will help with the flow of the chat if it gets too busy we will tone it down a bit. 16:35
Mid_mod: The only time when bribing is actively encourgaed 16:35
Serendipity: *cheers* 16:35

Patty Briggs: @proudfit -- yes. More Tom and Mora 16:35
Patty Briggs: Moira 16:35Baum Diggity: Alrighty, Has - mine's a little wordy, bear with me: Alright, so I was listening to Billy Joel the other day - We Didn't Start the Fire (trust me...this is going somewhere), and it made me wonder - how would history have changed with the fae being outed? How would our society and media have been changed by such revelations? 16:36Angela Beegle: Does thatmean it's my turn? 16:36
CarolKat: @Angela yes 16:36
Has_mod: Angela yes! 16:36
Angela Beegle: Actually, I don't have a question. I just want to give Patty a big virtual ((((hug)))) and tell her I discovered her graphic novels the other day. WOO HOO! 16:37
Patty Briggs: Depends upon when they were outed. In Mercy's world that happened in the 1980s -- and the fae (even in our world) were out in the middle ages . . . 16:37Nyx: random question, I can't seem to find the previous chats on the forum, can someone point me in the right direction? 16:37<< Earlier Posts672698 – 692771Later Posts >>
