About Sonny James's scarf...
From Delsyn's Blues, just a peek:
Luki reached out, "Come walk with me."
Sonny didn't argue or delay, but neither did he speak or smile. He took Luki's hand and let himself be pulled up and got his flip-flops on, but he refused the jacket. Instead he put on a beanie the color of driftwood and a scarf woven in the pinks and muted blues of a winter sunset on the straits. He'd made them for Delsyn because after Nebraska he was always cold. Wearing them, Sonny looked both armored against grief and vulnerable to its every nuance.

Nov. 2nd—Your turn to ask the questions! Interview the characters...
I've been invited to guest on Marie Sexton and Heidi Cullinan's neat little blog called, believe it or not, Cup-o-Porn. Despite the blog name, my post will not be porn. It could, however, be sexy.
Here's your chance—
Inquire, and then read all about it on November 2nd!
Ask Luki and Sonny anything you want to know—their favorite fragrance, their favorite position, what made them fall for their man... Or, you can ask other characters for bits of gossip (maybe Margie or Kaholo). I'll get answers and post them for equiring eyes.
I can't guarantee Luki and Sonny will answer all questions, but it could be fun to find out just how far they'll go! This won't work well at all without your help, so please, give it a little thought, and send your questions—best if you leave them here in a comment but if you prefer, send them to me at lou(dot)sylvre(at)gmail(dot)com.
(I'm really looking forward to this!)
Book Wenches, 10/31—I'll be Interviewed!
Halloween, but not Spooky at all, really. Just an interview, but you can read it in costume or not. Bobby D. Whitney asked me some great, challenging questions about humor, and landscape, and the meaning of hero. And more. I really enjoyed the interview. It will be officially posted 10/31 (or maybe 10/30?), and I'll be back to post the link when it's up. I hope you'll watch for it check it out.
The Book Wenches interview is live!
You can find it here at Book Wenches should curiosity lead you. If you check it out, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
