Will do!!
Thank you! Esta
sure, will get the recipe typed up and posted to you :)
HI Seanie,

Thank you! I'm so thrilled you liked the book! I have great fun with the pirates, and it's lovely to know others enjoy them, too. I've just finished the sequel (tentatively titled "Kestrel's Dance") and I'm working on a short story featuring Kestrel and her crew for an upcoming anthology. Kestrel's a busy girl!

Fair winds!

Seanie,

I know you're probably busy with packing ;-) but I'm trying to raise a bit of LT cricket awareness. I'm not sure GD is the place to do it but you're very welcome here http://www.librarything.com/topic/4134 as long as you're a good loser!
Hi Seanie, I am just pleased to know they were handed on. They have plenty to do so am not worried that I didn't hear from them.

Best wishes for your new home!! When ours was at that stage (many years ago) we went out to see it by moonlight: it looked so beautiful that my husband said, "Tell them to stop right there! We'll build another next to it!!" ~~~ Of course we didn't, but we know how exciting building can be. (We had designed it ourselves, and it sat on 10 wooded acres of an 80-acre tract.) We were the first people. Later others came, some on 5-acres, some on 10. (We did sell it and moved after retirement.)
Hi Seanie, I just wanted to say congratulations, again, on finding a new home. Be patient with the paperwork. If your community is anything like mine, it just takes time. But it feels so wonderful to have a home where you can do whatever you want. No more "Mr Landlord, please". Keep us informed on your progress. - Karen, aka Maggie1944

Hello! :) This is my first series of Robin Hobb's so it is my maiden voyage into her writing. Glad to know I picked a popular one! I just finished the first book in the Liveships set and am working on the second. So far I'm liking them quite a bit - her characters are quite good and the story clips along. I kept running into her name here and there on LT and finally got around to reading a trilogy. So far I'm not disappointed :) and am rapidly becoming a fan.

Seanie,

Keen to know what you think of weatherwitch when you finish it. I keep looking at Cecelia Dart-Thornton books and wondering... read the crowthistle chronicles - book 1 - whatever it was called.

You never seem to hear of her outside Aus. but she has beook in all the bookstores where I go to sign my small literary offering.

Dave
Thank you. I hope she likes them, or at least will get some use out of them. You can never have enough warm stuff for little ones in winter!
So, I've washed the cardigans and will post them on Monday! At long last. It took a bit longer than I wanted, but such is life!

Natalie
Nearly finished the cardis. Took a bit longer than I hoped, but there will be three there soon....
Cool. What I'll do it knit another one this week and then early next week, having washed them up so they don't have to fuss, I'll post them to you. I will let you know when I am sending them so you can keep a look out.
Cardigan no 1 is almost done. We need to come up with a solution to be able to get them to your sister's friend. Open to suggestions. Can we get it to her parents? Would it be easy to get it to your sister and get her to pass them on?
Got the wool and am about to start on some unisex garments for the baby! Will let you know when I am ready to post them.
I am a mum to three children. I don't think I need to say anymore really. My youngest is 8 months old and to have your children left with nothing, and to have been in danger is something I can't really begin to comprehend. If you can find out then do so. I am in the middle of a little vest thing for Meredith at present, so there is some time before I will begin it. If I haven't heard anything from you by then, I'll do something simple and plain. Cheers Nat
Seanie, was your sisters friends baby a boy or girl? I really want to knit he/she a nice 'something' for winter. Also, would you be prepared to give me an address so I can get it to you to get to her?
~wave~
Merry Christmas, Seanie! Been great hanging about with you in the GD this past year. Hope the holiday season is a good one for you. ~hugs~

Hi to a fellow aussie!
Hi!
I just saw your post about Camber of Culdi. I hope you find book one soon. I really did love those books.
Maybe you can cheat and borrow book one and continue to look? :)
I first read it years ago, and those characters have stayed with me. Now I continued to read
the next three Deryni books.. and did not like those nearly as well..but thats me.

Whenever you do read them, I am betting that you will love those characters

Hey, just me again
You asked a while ago for my thoughts on Kingmaker / Kingbreaker.
I finished it a few weeks ago, but just haven't got round to reviewing it until a few days ago.
My reviews are now up on the books pages. I'll put a brief summary for you here though.

Overall they were enjoyable, if a little slow to get started. Once the pace increased though it didn't let you go until the end. Which, paradoxically, I found slightly rushed - almost as if she was trying to meet the deadline for her publisher. I felt that there could have been some more meat in the ending, rather than it being over fairly fast. The rest of the book was very good though - so don't let that put you off!

So yes - that's my thoughts, Still need to pick up Assassin's Apprentice though hehe.

Hey, Seanie -

I know you were up in the air about your first review. Well, it looks like you got 5 thumbs up on it and it's now showing up on home pages as one of the ot reviews. Congrats! And keeping reviewing!

Jim
Hello,
Thanks for the recommendation - I'll certainly pick up Assassin's Apprentice next time I go to a bookshop so I can see what the actual writing is like. I usually stand in the shop and read the first few pages anyway!

I hacve only recently bought Kingmaker and i'm planning to start reading it soon - I'll let you know how it turns out =]

Thanks again for the recommendations
Hi! While I have read Vincalis, I have not read The Secret Texts trilogy. I read Vincalis first because I had never read anything by the author before, and I had been told it was her best work to date -- I didn't even know it was related to one of her other series until I after I started reading it.

Though I don't think it matters too much which way one reads it, I'd recommend reading the Secret Texts first. Vincalis is probably a more compelling book if you're already familiar with the world and curious about how it got to be the way it is in the Secret Texts.
Thanks Seanie, that's really interesting to know.
HI
I note you've got "The Accidental Sorcerer" by KE Mills, who has been combined with Karen Miller, I don't believe they are the same person? but before I seperate them I thought I'd check it wasn't a psuedoname.

thanks for your help with this.

No, there is no one website. But I try adding words to my google images searches, like "pretty cake" or "book cake" or "fairy cake."

Good luck! There are some wonderful cakes out there!!!
Group = joined. Huzzah!

You know, I think you're right -- I don't believe I posted about my own dragons. I must go back and find that thread later.
No, no sarcasm intended, mon ami. The pictures really did spruce up the thread -- in fact, it would have been nice to have seen a few more peoples' pictures. They are worth a thousand words each, you know. :)

-Danny
Thanks for posting pictures in "Dragons at Home," Seanie!
Well, I joined! I left a post full of attitude too. ;) You need to get some Terry Pratchett books so we have some books in common, or what books should I get? I'm not a huge fantasy fan. LOtR, Pratchett, some of the classic ones, that's about all I have.
