By keeping that stuff in, the speedometer of the novel was dropping toward zero. And lose a reader in this interconnected world, and you might not get them back...

It looks just like the Tanna in my head :-) And I've been waiting for these stories for a long time. For anyone who hasn't "met" this couple yet, I can assure you, you're going to love them. Huzzah!

I don't care if other people find it crazy or not. Lancelot will always be in that beautiful silver armor, and Nigel Terry is and always will be King Arthur. I can't even begin to discuss the jaw-dropping gorgeousness of the sword rising from the lake. This is the quintessential King Arthur movie. I don’t care if other people find it crazy or not.

I've been waiting for your Eddie LaCrosse pirate book for a couple of summers, now. My favorite is a rogue-of-all-trades, Woodes Rogers. He fought with and against "the real pirates of the Caribbean." He was an adventurer, a seagoing entrepreneur, a privateer, and a colonial governor. I'm at johne.cook@gmail.com. Ooh!

I love that he used to set his beard on fire to scare the living crap out of folks! That is awesome. I am sure he looked like something straight from the Pitts of hell. Many just gave up without even fighting. I am sure he saved many lives by doing that. Mine would have to be Blackbeard.

He married a British woman and they had a lot of children. I don't want to say anymore as I may write a fictional book about him. I LOVE PIRATES!
