Yes, they are. I hope you enjoyed the book. Goodreads very rarely sends me questions, I just got yours --
Catherine Coulter
Pamela, I'm very sorry, but Goodreads very rarely notifies me of questions, so I'm just now seeing yours, which I'm very sure you've long forgotten. Nope, they're not continued. I can't remember the name of the Regency historical, I mention the de Morton's as being a 300-year dynasty
Catherine Coulter
Sorry I just now got your question from Goodreads -- they almost never notify when there is a question. What happened was Mom got lots ot therapy and had a big turnaround, took about 2-3 years. If you want to contact me, I'd really suggest ReadMoi@gmail.com
Catherine Coulter
First of all, forgive me but I just now got your question. Isn't that amazing? Rarely Goodreads notifies me -- No, I do not know of such a list, but that's a great idea. About 10 or more FBI thrillers ago, I made the decision, no more cursing no more Christ or Jesus or anything like that. I haven't regretted it.

I'm currently writing DEADLOCK, the 24th FBI -- it will be out end of July -- I think it will --
Catherine Coulter
Actually, no. tell me why you ask.
Catherine Coulter
YES, YES, YES, AND YES -- WORKING WITH J.T. IS ALWAYS FUN -- AND THE IDEAS WE BAT AROUND AND DEVELOP -- THE ENDING NEVER RESEMBLES THE BEGINNING -- IT'S ALL A FANTASTIC TRIP -- EACH AND EVERY BOOK.

WE CAN TALK ABOUT MEXICAN FOOD IF YOU LIKE -- OF COURSE WE'LL TALK ABOUT ANY AND ALL OF MY BOOKS, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO KNOW DO PUT YOURSELF IN CONTEXT WHEN WE MEET, OKAY?
Catherine Coulter
TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST HERE, I DO NOT BELIEVE IN WRITER'S BLOCK. WHAT I BELIEVE IN IS A BAD PLOT IDEA -- YOU HIT A BRICK WALL, IT'S NOTHING SICK IN YOUR BRAIN, IT'S THE PLOT. YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO TRUST THERE'S THE RIGHT PLOT READY TO DRIVE OUT OF THE PARKING LOT IN YOUR BRAIN --
Catherine Coulter
THE MAIL! YOU SIMPLY NEVER KNOW WHAT GOODIES CAN BE WAITING IN THE MAIL BOX -- A SALE TO SPAIN, A ROYALTY CHECK FOR A BOOK YOU WROTE TWENTY YEARS AGO, AN INVITE TO THE WHITE HOUSE, A LETTER FROM A PRODUCER FOR A SERIES -- CAN YOU GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS?
Catherine Coulter
SIT YOUR BUTT AT YOUR COMPUTER FOR THE SAME TIME EVERY DAY, 5 DAYS A WEEK AND WRITE -- DOESN'T MATTER IF WHAT YOU WRITE ISN'T GREAT -- THERE'S SOMETHING THERE SO YOUR WRITER'S BRAIN CAN TAKE OFF -- YOU KNOW, I'VE NEVER MANAGED TO EDIT A BLANK SHEET OF PAPER
Catherine Coulter
I JUST SENT OFF YESTERDAY ENIGMA -- THE 21ST FBI THRILLER, OUT THIS SEPTEMBER 12TH --
Catherine Coulter
ANYTHING CAN PUT AN IDEA IN YOUR HEAD -- LIKE I READ THE DATING OF THE VOYNICH PAPERS WAS THE FID-FIFTEENTH CENTURY AND IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT VLAD THE IMPALER1 THIS IS THE NEXT BRIT IN THE FBI THRILLER -- WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
Catherine Coulter
i HATE TO ADMIT THIS, BUT I'VE GOT TO THINK ABOUT THAT; WHAT USUALLY HAPPENS IS J.T. AND I HAVE SOME 'COOL IDEA, BUT NOTHING MORE AND WE BRAINSTORM FROM THERE. AS I RECALL, WE WANTED TO STEAL MOSES'S STAFF FROM THE TOPKAPI PALACE IN ISTAMBUL AND WHO WOULD DO THAT? KITSUNE AN WE WERE OFF. WHAT IS FASCINATING ABOUT THIS BOOK IS HOW SO MUCH OF IT IS BASED ON FACTS THAT JUST FELL INTO OUR LAPS. I HOPE YOU LIKE TDT -- DO LET ME KNOW --
