Why do you insist on using the word clip as a short for magazine? Despite your in depth research. Anyone trained in use of firearms will use Mag as a short/ nickname. Even those mildly trained in armed security. The room on a ship or locker holding any type of ammunition is referred to as a magazine as well. Hence the use of " I am out... you got an extra Mag?" "I will meet you in the magazine. ". I had to ask this.

Yes, you had to ask. And you should! Every time you catch me. LOL
This issue is the bane of my existence.
I actually do know the difference. I really do. And I have primary sources who have explained in detail. But, there's something about when I write that my brain just inserts "clip" and just keeps going. Sometimes I catch it during edits. Sometimes I don't.
My primary resources will call me up and say "Christine, you did it again!"
I'm always trying to be better and will be so happy when I finally fix this in my head!

Happy Thursday Christine, I have loved you books since I discovered since '09. They have inspired me over the years to become a writer and keep at it, but I was wondering if I could pick your brain about your love-making scenes. How do you go about writing them? I would to hear your process on how you have a perfect balance of detail and emotion.

I've been wondering more about the South American part of the Dark series. Will we see more stories set at the De La Cruz ranches, and will Marguerita ever regain her ability to talk? Will Dax and Riley Parker--and the Old One reappear in the Dark Series? Also, I keep wondering how the evil Mitro Daratrazanoff is related to Gregori, and if there are any hero male jaguars--like Luiz--that could save the jaguar species?
