Cissy-moderator - welcome back, Nora
Mac - Nora - I absolutely don't plan to do a spin off series. I love Peabody and McNab, but they are, essentially, side-kicks. The series is Eve and Roarke, first and last.
BadBarb - welcome back nora
BadBarb - I love McNab too, sigh
Cissy-moderator - glad to hear it Nora - I think Peabody and MacNab are the perfect complement to Eve and Roarke
BadBarb - same here Cissy
Cissy-moderator - Celeste has the next question (Simpson, Suezq in line)
SIMPSON - AMEN Cissy...And NO BABIES!!!
Celeste - Nora, now that I know CHESAPEAKE BLUE is on sale, I'll be out of here as soon as the book stores (or Costco) open tomorrow. However, can you tell us a little about your April release, BIRTHRIGHT?
moose - Sorry . I have to go and deal with the kids . Autumn caught what I had and was sent home sick from school .
BadBarb - Mavis is pregnant though
Sara - ooh, Celeste, begging for scraps are you?
TeeMich - Now BadBard McNab is all mine!!!
Hunt4Me2 - ??
Marilyn_Reviewer - Poor Diana -- she's really had it with these viruses
Celeste - of course, Sara...I love Nora's books
BadBarb - Nope
BadBarb - McNab is mine all mine, Im greedy ask Morgan and Jane
BadBarb - I have a whole stable
Cissy-moderator - Hi Cin Welcome to our chat with Nora Roberts! We're chatting with Nora tonight about her newest release CHESAPEAKE BLUE. We're operating on protocol tonight, so if you have a question for Nora, please type ? and I'll call on you in turn
Sara -
Nora - Birthright is a romantic suspense that features a archeologist who digs up her own past as well as ancient bones when she joins a major dig in western Maryland. Murder, mystery, romance.
Cissy-moderator - Simpson has the next question (Suezq, Hunt4Me2 in line)
TeeMich - ?
Celeste - *sigh* my kind of book
SIMPSON - Hi Nora!!! Um, How's Jason? And, when are you coming to SEattle??? Can you request a city for your Birthright signings?
SIMPSON - sorry ..... took a 3 in 1
Cin - ?
SIMPSON - ?
BonnieJean Hamilton - Hi everyone..sorry I am late
Nora - Jason's fine. Pretty adorable. LOL. I have no idea if Seattle's one of my tour cities--I don't get to pick. If I did, all my cities would probably be my home town so I wouldn't have to pack and fly. <g>
BadBarb - hi bonnie
Mac - Hi, Bonnie
Hi Ol - I keep getinng knocked out
Cissy-moderator - Suezq has the next question (Hunt4Me2, TeeMich, Cin, Simpson in line)
Lydia F - Sorry! I got to go I have a drip under my bathroom sink!!
Lydia F - Bye Everyone.
BonnieJean Hamilton - ouch Lydia...been there
SIMPSON - bye
Leena - Hi Bonnie
BonnieJean Hamilton - A really big to Nora Roberts...one of my very favorite contemporary writers
Nora - Waving back atcha
BonnieJean Hamilton - ?
SIMPSON - ?
Suezq - Hello Nora - thanks for CB...it was perfect (sigh) I wonder if you look at your world and think how perfect it is. You are close to all your fans through adwoff, I assume you love what you do, and your family is close by...isn't that bliss?
Hi Ol - I am back'
SIMPSON - Oh Suezq....what a GREAT question!!!
Nora - I have to say, I feel very blessed and lucky with my life. I just had an evening visit with my gorgeous little granddaughter. Life's pretty perfect.
Suezq - thanks (blush) It is my first...I am a virgin
SIMPSON - Way to pop it!!!
Suezq - lol
Cissy-moderator - Hunt4Me2 has the next question (TeeMich, Cin, Simpson, BonnieJean, Simpson in line)
Cissy-moderator - well, we hope we've given you a craving for it, Suezq!
Hunt4Me2 - I think I head somewhere that when Eve gets pregnant that that is the end of the series is that true?
Suezq - ha!!! I just bought all the In Deaths and CB.....I have to hide them from my hubby
Hi Ol - Wha
Nora - I don't have any plans for a pregnancy where Eve's concerned. I imagine this will be an issue somewhere down the road. I think they'll want children, someday. But when their life settles in enough for a family, and everything's resolved, that's pretty much end of story.
Cissy-moderator - Hi hotmomma Welcome to our chat with Nora Roberts! We're chatting with Nora tonight about her newest release CHESAPEAKE BLUE. We're operating on protocol tonight, so if you have a question for Nora, please type ? and I'll call on you in turn
Cissy-moderator - TeeMich has the next question ( Cin, Simpson, BonnieJean, Simpson in line)
TeeMich - Hi Nora! Do you have any idea what your Next book with Eve will be about?
Nora - Well, yes, I do, as I've already written it. <g> Portrait In Death comes out in March. Roarke will deal with a personal crisis while Eve chases down a serial killer who likes to take images of his victims, before and after death.
Hunt4Me2 - But I can see even when she has settled down that their will always be crimes to solve and possible ciminals released again taht want revenge
SIMPSON - NO BABIES....PLEASE!!!!
Suezq - goody I have plenty of time to read them all before march
Kellybean - ?
Hunt4Me2 - sounds kewl putting the title on my TBR list
Cissy-moderator - Cin has the next question (Simpson, BonnieJean, Simpson, Kellybean in line)
Nora - On the Baby Roarke subject--my thought, at this time, is part of the appeal of the series is the developing relationships, and the layers of problems they deal with. As well as the crime. And it's tough to go out and kick ass when you're six months pregnant.
SIMPSON - RIGHT ON NORA!!! I AGREE!!!
Cin - Do you enjoy writing your books as much as we enjoy reading them?
Nora - Plus kids, bless them, really put a damper on hot monkey sex.
TeeMich - But this is Eve and your writing...it could work
Sara - *wonders, will Eve make Captain?*
Nora - I love the process of writing, even when I hate it. So yeah, I do enjoy the work.
SIMPSON - Put a damper on ANY SEX!!!
Sally00 - LOL
Cissy-moderator - ooh, good question, Sara
BadBarb - good question sara
TeeMich - Good thought Sara, but the Cpatain is not on the street much...
Suezq - yeah but monkey sex is wild
SIMPSON - So, me (mzsimpson on adwoff) and Goddessani (on adwoff) want you to come WA state so we can take you out to dinner....WILL YOU COME???
Cissy-moderator - Simpson has the next question ( BonnieJean, Simpson, Kellybean in line)
Nora - Even may eventually make Captain, just as she may, eventually, become a mother. Both events, I think, will signal the end or the winding up of the series.
Sara - *thinking Captains don't necessary kick ass but they are integral parts of the crime detection force*
Suezq - ?
Cin - I don't know with my mood swings when I was pregnant...I thought I could kick ass! LOL
Sara - yup, and a Captain could be a mommy
TeeMich - Okay Norm no baby and no Captain PLEASE
Nora - Eve is all about the street. If I make it to WA, I'll try to make it to dinner. <g>
Cissy-moderator - I think a pregnant Eve could be hilarious -- but I agree it should come near the end of the series
Celeste - oh lord, I hope she doesn't make capain or get pregnant then (greedy bitch that I am for more JD Robb books)
Cissy-moderator - and since I don't want it to end...
SIMPSON - Ok, let us know....we'll give you the Numbers..... ( I know it probably won't happen, but hey, you don't ask, you don't get!!! Right!!! )
BadBarb - I would be so upset if there were no more Robb series
Morgan - Celeste! LOL.
Cissy-moderator - BonnieJean has the next question (Simpson, Kellybean, Suezq in line)
BadBarb - Im with Celeste
BadBarb - ?
Sally00 - ?
