  1. Dickmobile. This is one of the best commentaries on their relationship I've seen.

    Thanks for the review! I think you'll find that Will is as surprised that no one stuck for him as you are, and he'll explain it to the others in his normal, calm way. :-)

    Brad and Jeanine aren't married. I really think that Will is just being a teenager. It's really up to Evan and Shane to worry about that, and the impact. But you'll see that Will does care.

    I think JJ will definitely invite Will back. I think part of the dynamic is that Will serves as JJ's whipping boy. Besides, I think that if Will wants to go, there's not much JJ can do to stop him.

    So many interesting points that you make. And they could happen. I think Will's smart enough to dodge his whacked-out mother.

    Well, not every encounter is mutually fulfilling. Will ended up with two hook-ups to have one complete one.

    Smile.
  8. I suspect there may be multiple reasons for why JJ is pissed off at Will. The biggest issue, though, is attention. JJ wants everyone to be focused on him, so when Will goes off and sleeps with guys, it steals his limelight. Even JJ would see that was a little to vain to say, so he's probably couching it in terms of being 'embarrassed.' I'm not allowed to be rainbows and sunshine, not when my editor is the Queen of the Dark Side. That's one possible parallel. Another is Janice/Brad and Jeanine/Will. Another possibility is there's no parallel at all. Please do not bother Jeremy with facts.
  9. I see them doing it. It can be pretty vivid; like I'm there.

    November 1, 2000 Hamar, Norway Will I got back to the condo and headed straight to my room. It was really cool, because it had a big window that opened up at street level, so if I wanted to sneak out with no one seeing me that was an option. I noticed that Jeff had brought all of my stuff over and unpacked it for me, even to the point of organizing my toiletries. I went out to the kitchen and Jeff was there, snacking on some Doritos. “Dude, thanks for moving all my stuff o
  11. 50 years ago today, Telstar, the first telecommunications satellite, was launched The Tornados ( the lead singer was gay) wrote a song about it:
  12. Happy Birthday Big Guy! Can I post those shirtless pics of you to celebrate?
  13. I really enjoyed reading this interview. Andy's an awesome writer, so what a treat it was for him to let us inside his mind (the relatively clean part) and see how he thinks. These sentences fascinated me: I contrasted that to how I usually visualize a story, and for me, I usually see an interaction, a dialog of sorts between two characters. It's great to see how other authors get their inspirations!
  14. Here's a chance for you guys to decide the direction of this storyline. Take a second and vote to tell me whether Senator Danfield should be re-elected (vote "yes") or not (vote "no"). This one ends real fast, so vote now! Note: This is NOT a public poll, so no one can see your vote.

    In CAP, Wade is usually portrayed as being similar to JP, which he is, but I think that in reality, Wade and George are much more alike.

    "it would be just too ironic and potentially explosive if he were the pick to replace Bertie!" And I'd never do that. ;-)

    Your confidence is well-placed. It wouldn't be interesting if we just sailed away from England without laying all the groundwork.

    Well, George does usually wander out of things alright, but he's definitely had his challenges.

    I'm glad you enjoyed it. No connection with Tobias and Winchelsea. Maidstone is a hard-core, wealthy merchant...a businessman. Think: Rupert Murdoch.

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts! JP's not supposed to be really likable in this story, because he's a very stunted person (emotionally). He gets better as the stories unfold.

    Chapter 15

    I'm glad you liked it. This is a pretty raw story, but it sets the stage for JP to ultimately address his demons.
  22. I can definitely see Will getting jaded and cynical.
  23. My hair was never that long. Back then, I was a Republican. Good call.
  24. I'm doubtful about that. Besides, it would be much better for Granger to get back and tour it when it's all finished.
