It's a fun job, looking for the perfect illustrations to go with our posts.Marissa Doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11248406475808085694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7730888263639781223.post-12126726390845755332012-01-09T19:33:59.445-05:002012-01-09T19:33:59.445-05:00Marissa -- the illustrations you've chosen for...Marissa -- the illustrations you've chosen for this page are an absolute joy.

I hope you'll comment next week. <br /><br />And I thought of you when writing this post--I'm loving writing this book too, though the action in it has now moved on to the Adirondacks. The goal is to finish it by March 1...I'll keep you posted on how it fares once it's done!Marissa Doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11248406475808085694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7730888263639781223.post-66117894416707751552012-01-04T15:59:04.760-05:002012-01-04T15:59:04.760-05:00I have to read this book!

I used to love to visit Astors' Beechwood and am heartbroken they couldn't keep the living history museum running. Good luck finishing the novel and finding a publisher. <br /><br />I read both Y.S. Lee books already and am eagerly awaiting the third. Those who can't get the book can read an excerpt and deleted scene on the author's website http://yslee.com/a-spy-in-the-house/QNPoohBearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14941631487565237299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7730888263639781223.post-88045906807547725032012-01-03T19:23:23.675-05:002012-01-03T19:23:23.675-05:00I still consider it 19th too. :)I still consider it 19th too. :)LilMissMollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05847160970054624743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7730888263639781223.post-22952720304167741662012-01-03T16:26:36.796-05:002012-01-03T16:26:36.796-05:00Hee--sorry, but I couldn't resist the tease......Hee--sorry, but I couldn't resist the tease...Marissa Doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11248406475808085694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7730888263639781223.post-14478021142231682142012-01-03T14:07:04.852-05:002012-01-03T14:07:04.852-05:00What a tease!

Actuall...Oh, my heart! Smelling salts, quickly! <br /><br />Actually, you've teased me a bit before about what you've been learning, so I can't wait to hear more! After that trip to Newport, even I am tempted to try a Gilded Age novel.
