LOL Just kidding :) That said, even though I may be silent at times, I want you to know I'm always cheering you on.

A few of us there were entertaining the crowds through some circus-curiosity-like acts: one gentleman was using Styrofoam cups for his puppet show; I was swallowing flaming potato chips, much like a sword swallower in a circus does and for which I'd been trained to do before ever having attempted; and my hubby. . . .well, he definitely wouldn't appreciate my sharing his very silly act (nothing obscene, I assure you). So, let me just say, sparks flew (pardon the pun) between us, and we knew we were tailored for each other like a glove for its hand (as Jana says about her and Keeley in Sweet Glory). P.S. The beauty of it all is that no drugs or alcohol were involved as inducements for our follies. And I'm darn proud of it!<br /><br />Oddly enough, my hubby and I have grown very shy about being the center of attention at any gathering--even private. Yet, we thrive on speaking to large crowds in our occupations. But. . .we'll always LOVE silly and being silly--that'll never change!!!Lisa Potocarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10406604885947630274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6507548911400837437.post-62709622814313897872014-12-10T13:18:14.770-07:002014-12-10T13:18:14.770-07:00Loved the interview Lisa, it was awesome.Loved the interview Lisa, it was awesome.Douglas Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16167715815790882062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6507548911400837437.post-5195751745742486602014-12-10T12:15:04.242-07:002014-12-10T12:15:04.242-07:00Hi, Theresa!

Leslie Ann does indeed ask some fun questions, and I hope to read an interview of you here real soon. <br /><br />To answer your one question, I'm STILL working on polishing Sweet Glory's sequel for which I've had too many brief starts and long sputters in my creative momentum while I've dealt with, and am still dealing with, a few family tragedies that struck throughout 2014. Though, I'm still very much enjoying writing this story. It's turning out better than I had expected; it's just taking longer to get to market than I had planned--SIGH. But. . .the bright spot in my writing career for this past year: I packed in numerous lectures on "Women Soldiers in the American Civil War". What fun!!<br /><br />Thanks for your interest.
