heads up.  really liked Storm Born, I'm only about a third of the way through but it zings nicely.  Especially appreciated the hot sex scene in the beginning.  I like it more than Succabus Blues.  SB has a firmer place in the moment for some illusive reason, where as SB was like fresh lemonaid.  Both nice, just different.
Emphasis added
Which SB is which again?   ;D

You could always wear the cheesy vampire costume.   :D

Or the tux.   8)
  ...isn't it the same thing? 

When I referenced the tux, I was thinking of the formal tux from the shindig he went to with Susan in Death Masks.  Which would be very cool looking, but perhaps not distinctively Harry.

<snip> ...and maybe another incarnation of Harry.  Any suggestions?  I already have Harry from the end of Storm Front (sweats, cowboy boots, and the "easter" tshirt), and generic post-burned hand Harry.  I'm also working out shield bracelet 2.0.  Any other ideas?

Yes.  Yes, I do.  And this is why I'm a beta. :D
So, if we have lots of time we can be betas?

I came across the answer to the blue beetle in... the first book. Do we need the most recent? Specifics, specifics...

We dug out the specifics up to PG... and WN only referenced blue, red, yellow, and green.  Is there more in SmF?  (You'd think I'd have taken note of it, but I can't recall)

Answer:  Powder blue, white, yellow, red, green, and primer grey

I found 3 quotes for this (Thanks, Priscellie for pointing me to FM!):

Fool Moon
The Beetle wasn't really blue, not anymore.  One of the doors had been replaced with a green duplicate, the other one with white, when something with claws had shredded the originals.  The hood had been slagged by fire, and my mechanic, Mike, had replaced it with the hood from a red vehicle.

Dead Beat
The car has had various doors and panels replaced with white, yellow, red, and green.  My mechanic, Mike, had managed to pound the hood more or less back into its original condition, which I’d bent our of shape while ramming a bad guy, but I hadn’t had the money to repaint, so now the car had primer grey added to its ensemble.

Proven Guilty
It’s a jumble of different colors, as my mechanic has replaced damaged portions of the body with parts from junked Bugs, but it started off as a shade of powder blue, and that had earned it the sobriquet of the Blue Beetle.


ETA quote from PG, to clarify that the "blue" is "powder blue," 'cause it's a fine piece of trivia  :D

Hush, you! I wasn't there then, it didn't count.

But you can bet I'll be there when he's out promoting the next book! Wahooooooo!
I wanted to be there (inlaws live there).  For some reason, hubby didn't see the need for us to go to Phoenix so I could meet Jim to see his parents... I mean, just because they were coming here two weeks later...

But he never comes to Miami.  You'd think we don't exist.
Yeah, he's never come to Louisville either.


*can't hold straight face*


Ok, yeah, you got me there.

First thing I did was curse like a sailor.   :o  I actually had FREE time, time where I could PLAY and catch up on forum stuff, and instead I was forced to PRODUCTIVE things...  getting information for our upcoming vacation, cleaning out a storage room, doing laundry.  Scary stuff.  It needed doing though...

Bummer that posts were lost (I lost some PMs, too) - it looks like about 3 days' worth, maybe 4?

As long as you are "peeking" in now and then....

I'm a fan of Succabus Blues BUT wow--your preview for the new series sounds like something I'll like even more!  Your writing is always sharp, witty, exciting & fresh.   Can you get us more samples????
Wait... what?  A new series?  Oh, man, my TBR pile just grew...   :P
