ToriCarrington1 - Have we broken a record? We are now in here with three names.
Caffey - ah hang on Tori
moose -
Rebecca de Winter - So did I, Rebecca York. I didn't have a choice.
Cissy - Did everyone have a chance to answer O's question?
__sonya__ - lol
moose - Multiple Personalities .
Caffey - i always love looking at the # of books you post at your site. thats awesome Rebecca
Mary f - You sure know how to pack a room Tori!
BadBarb - Hey this is Barbs brother Rick
BadBarb - Hey this is Barbs brother Rick
RoxanneRustand - What inspired me to write? The wonderful writing of other romance authors--stories that made me cry, made me laugh, made me turn the pages late into the night. Such magic, in romance! I enjoyed reading so much that I wanted to try writing as well.

__sonya__ - It's a good thing you left yesterday T&L, we started having bad weather again today, snowing like crazy

Cissy - Moosehog has the next question ( O, hunt in line)
ToriCarrington1 - Definitely multiple personalities, Diana. And that also applies to O's question. I think the desire to step into someone else's shoes and lives is always appealing.
