I better write faster. Problem is I'm also juggling a couple of other stories. Maybe I should avoid the wine tastings...
-
I'm willing to suffer for my art!

I'm turning my attention to Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian vinos for that story. The French will be represented by Veuve Clicquot which will be consumed by the gallon that week. And I'm thinking of having daily, sunset happy hours with a different martini each day. Not that I'm turning the boys into lushes or anything.

"Black Lives Matter," the opening chapter of Thiago's story took place in June 2020. The new one picks up the story a year later as he arrives in Atlanta.

I was going to wait until after I roped you into reading Coral Castles to spring this one on you, but since the cat's out of the bag... Interested? It won't be for a bit, still working on it.
-
The sacrifices we make in the interest of art... Oy vey! CDMX doesn't have a lot of 'real' wines mentioned but I know one's coming up next chapter. However, I'm working on the wine list for a future book and will be sampling vintages to include. The cheap ones. I think I want to have them sample a Vega Sicilia bottle or two, but if I recall correctly, it was pricey. I'm hitting a liquor store sometime this week.

I mean, it's an official US holiday now...

I don't know, isn't writing CJ stories similar to rocket science? Ritch! Where are you? We need an expert's opinion here.
-
One thing I've noticed is I fret less about things than I did when younger. I'm still high strung, but I've started worrying less about things I can't control.
-
We threw a part in 2020.
-
It is... In the United States. Can't say more right now.
-
We can offer him up a sacrificial lamb.
-
Nah... a high colonic flush with jalapeno water since they're in Mexico. He's too full of it.

Just wait until they win an Oscar and CJ takes it into the office! We know he said that was his plan (in Ranger.) I've tried to show CJ doing things because they're right and not for any publicity or monetary reasons. Some of it is based on someone I knew. An heir to a Midwest family, founders of a famous American brand. With all his money, a Duke education, and a law degree, he moved to South Florida to work for American Friends Committee helping immigrants. Peter chose a life of helping others instead of becoming a spoiled rich brat. I see a lot of the same in CJ.
-
I watched season 2 over the holidays and can't wait for the next one! Nice show. Alex is like CJ in some ways, advanced for his age.
-
Have I mentioned this before? I love playing with my characters!!! Recent changes in GA about how to assign genres and tags to a story confirmed mine don't fit into any of them well. I'm writing for my enjoyment and the readers' and not for literary critics. This is popular fiction designed to entertain.
-
I got a craving for Anita Baker while plotting/writing the chapter (can't recall exactly) and she led to listening to Ella singing Cole Porter. It seemed like a perfect soundtrack for a Sunday afternoon wine tasting. Badu and the others ended up on a temporary playlist here. Glad you approve of the music choice. Can't wait for CJ to spank the Russian. LOL
-
Liebe affects CJ and Owen's life and mine. I have to take her into account for plenty of scenes even if it's just to note the guys went out and left the kid with a sitter.
-
Kids! Happy belated 59th.
-
Whenever someone binges the entire series (three at this moment) I end up reading portions of old chapters and comments. You're absolutely right: they're a story upon themselves. There may be one or two other multiple-posting weekends. I have a specific date I'd like to finish CDMX posting, so y'all may have to suffer. I want to post a different story on 6/19/22. At least let's print some labels and slap them on wines we like.

Never been to Cancun, but it seems it's a popular destination for politicians when the temperature drops.
-
I think readers have become accustomed to me getting rid of idiots quickly...
-
Come on! We need an antagonist to hate!
-
I think the dislike's a general feeling. He doesn't show good people skills with CJ, but he's probably not as bad with others and he's probably efficient at his job. I have a feeling before the end of the book CJ will tell him to fuck off.

Those big thighs in tight shorts...
