_originally posted by shahina daar_ janny this is soooo exciting- I can almost feel you writing! no wonder we all enjoy your books so much if just writing about writing ( does that make sense???) gives so much fun. re your covers- i have the copy of Peril's gate bought at heathrow i think- it doesn't have Arithon. something missing there for me!A late happy new year to all and i hope, a more peaceful one. ---

_originally posted by nathan_ This is way too exciting, a daily page count, from the Author herself no less! I've never felt such a sense of anticipation about a book before. I always look forward to the next instalment from you Janny but this seems different’‘special somehow. Maybe because it's the end of the arc, I don't know why but I just get the feeling that the pompous little princeling Lysaer is about to get put in his place. Dito to Blue’Go Janny, go’ Thanks for the page counts. Long may the good roll continue. ---

_originally posted by Blue_ Uh, actually, I was envisioning a sorcery powered horse named Isfarenn rather than a car, but if you want a car, why, by all means, pick one! A funny scenario for you… based on the likes and dislikes of the main characters, what do you think they would drive in the "real" world? I see Arithon as a muscle car fan, such as a GTO, while Lysaer would probably have a chaufer driven Rolls Royce. ---

_originally posted by Hunter_ I think Lysaer would commission a Popemobile where he could be seen by the adoring masses, surround himself with a coterie of celibate priests out of touch with society, deride what they don't understand and yearn to rule the world unelected… Arithon I see driving a paisley covered VW Kombi Van with a surf board on top… 😃 ---

_originally posted by wolfhunter_ OK Kam, if it was a bicycle - it would be a racer and he would be riding it Lance Armstrong style, hard and uncompromising without sparing himself. But unlike Kam, I think a vintage Ford Mustang, fast, stylish and understated. Cheers Wolfhunter ---

_originally posted by Hannah_ I don't know, judging by the fun Arithon had commandeering Eldir's racing chariots, Blue may be right about the muscle car. I think he likes horsepower. I can see the vintage Mustang, or maybe a Stingray… ooh, the hotness. Maybe an old 70s pick-up or Bronco, when he's incognito. Whatever Lysaer drove, it would be chauferred, and bullet proof. With police escorts at all time. ---

_originally posted by StarGazer72_ What about motorcycles? I could totally see Arithon on a black motorcycle. 😃 SG ---

_originally posted by Benjamin Findlater_ Hmmm, I think with Arithon it's all a matter of what vehicles YOU like, because I can imagine Arithon behind the wheel of a sleek Japanese sports car, black naturally… But like Hitler commissioned Volkswagen to make his car, I think Lysaer would do the same. But it would have to be one similar to the Pope's car, with a lovely little bulletproof glass viewing area.

Its the top two 😃 ---

Next Chapter - 6 solid pages in, the scene's set. I've got a shift in location vantage to accomplish, today. 6 pages!!! Did you think rolls last forever? (grin) Sometimes the pause to set the scene, precisely, for the next kick off takes a bit of refining thought…also… Authors with teeth need dentists, occasionally, and we had a nice surprise visit from my sister. The livingroom, meantime, is getting a paint job…while in the art studio, late evenings, there's a drawing being transferred for painting, and during phone calls or waits for husband - a sketch in the Paravia book…not mentioning, I got snagged into some backhistory stuff, but onto that later… Stormed Fortress! Roll resuming…now where was that whacked ball headed? ---

Official page count 543, and time for a brain break…halfway there on this subchapter, which will finish with 8's one liners. Could nail it all for this chapter set by the end of the weekend. Maybe…just maybe. ---
