To check, or not to check

May 20, 2007

You guys seem to like the podcast. We’ll try to do more of them later. And I’ve heard before that my voice doesn’t match what people think it will sound like. I can do sultry, but it’s effort and it’s not my normal voice. I figure you guys would rather hear what I actually sound like for the questions and answers.
One question that someone asked on the board was that Boone was Chimera’s alter ego, so he couldn’t do plumbing in a latter book. True. I read the question as asked, and it said Boone. Like I said, new tech makes me nervous. I’m willing to believe I goofed and used the name Boone for the werebear plumber, when he should have been nameless. If I did, sorry.
Why have I not read through the book where we talk about the plumbing in Anita’s bathroom so I can check? Because I finished the read through of A LICK OF FROST yesterday. Tomorrow I just go through the sticky notes, answer the queries on them, and it’s done. If I go back and read an Anita book even to just look up something, I’m afraid I might loose the flow of FROST. There are surprisingly few sticky note queries, so I need to stay in Merry’s world, and not go visiting.
May I say that leaving the Jason piece when I had to leave it, was hard. So if I left Jason and Anita in mid-adventure so I would be able to concentrate fully on Merry, then I’m not going to risk getting distracted to check a note. Sorry.
When Merry and Frost are safely sent off to New York, I’ll check on werebear plumbers.
