    I can’t wait to read Wicked Hot! *g*

    Great list!

  2. Charli says:

    Thanks, NJ. I love the background/setting research. Books are great for armchair travel!

  3. LA Day says:

    Loved Dylan from a Wolf in Cheap Clothing!

  4. Erin the Innocent says:

    Have you been to all these places too? (well except for Hell *s*)

  5. Charli says:

    Thank you, LA! I loved Dylan myself. He was fun to write.

    Erin, most of them. The ones I haven’t been to in person I did research overkill to compensate. Haven’t been to Hedeby Noor or the English/Scottish border, especially not in Viking or Medieval times, so I really went nutso on the research for those two. I actually studied artist’s renderings of Hedeby during the Viking age, what it would have looked like. My husband and I did a motorcycle ride along the High Plains Desert route Drake and Melinda rode, and I also rode on a Ducati Monster. *g* Authenticity! I haven’t been to Hell, but I’m pretty sure Barry Manilow music really does play there, and you can’t turn it off. *eg*

  7. Nicole Austin says:

    Oooh, great list! Can’t wait to read your alien stories and Wicket Hot!!!

  8. Charli says:

    Thanks, Nic. Aliens are fun! So are demons. ; )

  9. Erin the Innocent says:

    LMAO! Dakota Cassidy would think that Barry Manilow music played in heaven not hell *g* The soundtrack would alternate between him and Tom Jones.

    I loved your response!

  10. Charli says:

    Ah, well, heaven and hell are so individual. *ggg*

  11. Amelia June says:

    Ooh, great TT (I might have to thieve it one of these days…)

  12. Shannon says:

    That’s so cool! I might rip this idea off for a future TT. *g*

    And I go to Franklin every day. )

  13. Charli says:

    Amelia, glad I gave you an idea.

  14. Charli says:

    Shan, Franklin is a neat town, isn’t it? Rip away, you’ve got some cool settings.
