I think his lack of furniture is preferable to a lack of trunks, no?

Hi Lesa,

I think Jen is secretly relieved her trashy side has finally been revealed so she doesn’t have to hide it anymore!

Thanks for your nice words about the interview. I’m looking forward to Brad’s next book, too.

Hard to believe Jen actually sent me to this blog, where her reputation has been trashed. Proud of it, huh, Jen?

I’m so glad Brad “met” you before he met me. What a reputation to carry throughout the book community! (You go, Girl!)

Terrific interview, guys. Brad’s book was on my list of best books of 2009. Can’t wait for the next one.

With a smile like that, no wonder Jen gets around ~ what a beautiful photo!

Thanks for another fun interview, PCN, and yet another book for my lengthy PCN List. I’m relieved Brad wears trunks, though strangely perturbed as to his lack of furniture…

Hi Hilary! Nice to see you here. Glad I can help move up Brad’s book because he likes being on top.

And yes, Jen terrifies me with her niceness. If I’m ever in the same room as she, I’m bringing a taste-testing parrot before eating anything.

PCN — With regards to this…
“I saw Jen’s name and cell-home-work numbers on your PDA next to a number for Uncle Butch’s Motel 69. What’s THAT about?”
… I’m not saying and Uncle Butch, God love him, will never tell.

What a fantastic interview. Thanks, PCN and Brad — I had to read parts over and over since you made made me laugh out loud. I was already planning to get FACES OF THE GONE, but this just moved it way up my to-be-read list.

And about that Jen Forbus… I believe the correct term for her is femme fatale. Remember, it’s always the sweet ones…

Fortunately I was at home when I read this. Did scare my cats off the couch when I started laughing, though. I guess they’re used to a little less sensory input from me in the morning until after I’ve had my coffee.

Brad – To give due credit, it was the aforementioned loose woman’s blog (aka Jen’s Book Thoughts) that introduced me to you and made sure I put FACES OF THE GONE in my reading que. 😀

Ybnorml—thanks for saying that about my blog. If it weren’t for you, no one would depend on me for anything.

Poncho—yay! It’s always a good day when I can make you have one of your laughing fits. Just don’t do it over other people’s food.

Kaye—welcome! I think Brad knows Jen quite well. How else would he know about her, ah, indiscretions?
