Just natural reader wanderlust and the fact I get "interrupted" when new batches of review copies come in.<br /><br />Julia, I'm sure that I will. I've been given enough raves from others about the series that I almost like it madly before even reading it.Jay Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11409350742317719903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-55469163670719474052018-10-11T17:45:43.006-04:002018-10-11T17:45:43.006-04:00Well I guess just reading every one of your books ...Well I guess just reading every one of your books more than five times isn’t enough anymore.

As for her music, it is definitely for me and I've loved her as an artist since discovering her and Chastain since the late 80's.<br /><br />When the opportunity came up for someone to do an interview with her, I gave in on my long standing reticence to do interviews (I'd only done one before, with Hank) and had the arrangements made so I could do it. One of the best 30 minutes of my life. The interview came out rather great if I do say so myself. I was prepared like you wouldn't believe. And though you'll have to take my word for it, her new album is freaking amazing!Jay Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11409350742317719903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-79036794497857885312018-10-11T16:04:25.128-04:002018-10-11T16:04:25.128-04:00Wow!

And that is pretty fantastic that your sister has been friends with her for all this time. <br /><br />Funny thing is, I didn't even know her real name until this year. I just never felt the need to know it. She was simply Leather to me. I had been looking for a Leather Leone T-shirt and Leather told me she had one in my size and I sent her the money via Paypal. As it turned out she had her real first name on her account. It struck me funny that she has such a "regular" name as opposed to her beloved stage name. <br /><br />And she is amazingly awesome. When I told her I was going to see her in concert during the interview, she asked "Where am I seeing you?" which made me chuckle because the idea of her seeing me as opposed to me seeing her was just hilarious.Jay Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11409350742317719903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-58210734972038207672018-10-11T15:10:59.393-04:002018-10-11T15:10:59.393-04:00This is the BEST!!!

You must keep us updated on their shenanigans. I'm afraid to answer your question in case I've forgotten something that someone has done for me.
