We have whole new worlds to explore in books 7, 8, and 9 when I ever get them written. I'll be dealing with the cultures of some of the new characters Jan-nell meets in Verses and Refrain.

Yours sounds so interesting, Janie, and I hope (lol) that your write faster than Ms. Auel. And I'm anxious to learn about the time period you chose and studied.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296793847863721845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564025564094573899.post-21583367979048522652013-05-23T17:02:54.475-04:002013-05-23T17:02:54.475-04:00Thank you, Lorrie, for having me pop by today!
M...Thank you, Lorrie, for having me pop by today!<br /><br /><br />Marva, I'm very excited about this saga. There will be at least three more books I have in mind for these characters.... Everyone has a story to tell....We'll see what the future holds for them....Someone complemented me on the first three books, saying that they were a lot like the detail in Jean Auel's Earth Children books. I can't say that that's exactly true...since hers deal with prehistoric peoples, but I feel grounded in Jan-nell's world, and it continues to unfold for me book by book.<br /><br />Janie Franzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15766180005083244058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564025564094573899.post-27064602778124582152013-05-23T15:19:56.471-04:002013-05-23T15:19:56.471-04:00The description shows your anthropology roots.
