Wyshona D. Lawson asked M. Ruth Myers:

I love Maggie Sullivan! Keep writing about her, please! PS: The Whiskey Tide was REALLY GOOD! No real questions--I just wanted to let you know I enjoy your writing! It won't let me post without a question, so……What's Maggie's favorite color?

M. Ruth Myers Oh, that's a tough one, Wyshona. In fact you've kind of inspired me to do a blog post about this so I can answer more thoroughly. In the years covered by the first four books of this series, middle-class women such as Maggie still couldn't afford that many clothes. The fact Maggie is a businesswoman means she has to spend on a couple of good (though by no means top-of-the-line) items she can mix and match, so she can't really indulge in favorites.

If she could, I'd say she probably would choose blue, to match her eyes. Her one foray into fancy undies -- which ended badly -- was blue. But she also likes dark green, and the brighter pinks. And you know when it comes to hats, she'd love just about anything.

Thanks for writing, and excuse the tardy reply. I've been finishing the fourth book in the series.
