*** sayrah has joined #Reading_1 sanroy I loved all your books Diana, thank you for writing and sharing
them with us miss_vicki2 And doesn't Willie mess up the Fraser Prophecy anyway?
*** Lavendar2 has joined #Reading_1 brooke2 DO YOU HAVE ANY BROS OR SIS JJ2 At the time that you wrote Outlander, did you plan to have Geillis
return in Voyager? Ishie Hi sanroy Ishie Hi Bex
*** CF has left #Reading_1

think it captured all our hearts? Lavendar2 Hiya Ish
*** Sissie has left #Reading_1 dgabaldon No, I didn't plan to have Geillis return, especially. I did
know she wasn't dead, though. ga
*** highpriestess60 has joined #Reading_1 windsongj Do you desire to go back in time? brooke2 DO YOU HAVE ANY BROTHERS OR SWISTERS LadySolace Diana, not to be repetitive from the earlier Barnes and Noble
Chat, but you've said that Claire takes the story and runs. Does she ever do
anything that annoys or confounds YOU?
*** Talya has left #Reading_1 Ishie Brooke, please lose the caps SuzannefromLI Claire will be close to 60 at start of the Revolution I
hope its not a bit much for her Cameron-MacLeod Hi Diana. It is a pleasure! Diana, What plans do you
have after you finish the Outlandish series? Or is that too far ahead to think?
dgabaldon No, I had no idea I'd ever evven publish the first book, let
alone have it be so popular. As for what people like...you name it, but the
most common thing people say they like is simply the characters themselves. ga
Belle2 Is Geillis the skull found at the beginning of Voyager? Stevo1 please wait for Diana to type "ga" before posting
questions Jinx_ Bye room

*** Talya has joined #Reading_1 Ishie WB Talya Duchess Belle2 - yes she is. Lavendar2 HI talya dgabaldon No, Claire doesn't annoy me--I know _why_ she does what she
does, so it's like the French say..."Tour compredre, c'est tout pardonner." (To understand everything is to forgive everything). ga brooke2 do you ever think of writing kids books
*** LadyLeeC has joined #Reading_1 dgabaldon Yes, that's Geillis's skull at the beginning of VOYAGER. ga
Stevo1 Tell us about "The Outlandish Companion." What was it
like collecting material for the book? Was writing it harder than actually
writing an "Outlander" novel?
*** Karen___SFF has joined #Reading_1 Cameron-MacLeod Hi Diana! It is a pleasure to meet/chat with you! What
plans do you have after you finish the Outlandish books? Or is that too far

fast. You wanted to know what about Claire, Suzanne? ga brooke2 i dont know you at alll what kind of books to you write
*** kiwi has left #Reading_1 windsongj Diana, Do you want to go back in time?
*** LadyShannon has joined #Reading_1 SuzannefromLI Yes if being 60 at the start of the revolution would be a
bit to much for her? dgabaldon Steve--no, the COMPANION is--essentially--nonfiction, which is
always lots easier to write than fiction.
* Henry leaving dgabaldon I had a lot of the material already, as a result of answering
ladyelaine I would like to ask a question but I will wait my turn. dgabaldon people's quesitons for years. <g> ga brooke2 what kind of books do you write ^4C616479537069646572C2A9 I loved your first book, Outlander,
Diana....so full of facts and history. Who would have known I would have flown
to Scotland myself and gotten married to a Scot!! <g>
*** Henry has left #Reading_1
*** kiwi has joined #Reading_1 dgabaldon No, Suzanne--she isn't 60; more in her early to mid-50's. And

research--since I was writing for practice, I couldn't very well tell my
husband I had to go to Scotland to do research. <g> I've been three or
four times since then, thanks! ga Ritavz ? WordWiz okay then I won't :-) Duchess ? Stevo1 GA Ritaviz Ritavz I'd like to know if we'll ever see a "non-edited"

essential to the plot.

*** Sir_Adam has joined #Reading_1 dgabaldon Yes, Master Raymond is (I think) one of Claire's (very
distant) ancestors. I don't know for sure, but I think she might quite possibly
meet other ancestors. Won't know 'til I write it, though! ga JAMIELOVER ? LadySolace ? Stevo1 GA Ladye ladyelaine What was wrong with the original title of King, Farewell? Why
did you change it?
*** Joe_Cool has joined #Reading_1

*** sue3 has left #Reading_1 ^4C616479537069646572C2A9 How difficult was it breaking into the writing
industry? dgabaldon I haven't written the book yet, let alone formally decided on
the title! I just thought that KING, FAREWELL seemed not the best, because
people couldn't remember it. <g> Also, I quite like SONS OF LIBERTY,
because it fits the book well. But we'll see Joe_Cool hello dgabaldon what happens when I actually write it! ga Belle2 In the companion, the genealogies seem very ligitimate - are they
purely fictional, created just for your characters or do they begin with true
historical figures of those surnames - and if so, how do we tell where the
historical gives way to the fictional Stevo1 Ga ladyspider SuzannefromLI My daughter can't wait till she's old enough to read the
series she's 11 and glad to meet you too.? Ishie Hi Joe
*** LadyShannon has left #Reading_1 Stevo1 belle, if you have a q., type a "?" dgabaldon LS--It wasn't difficult to "break in," as such--I
got an agent, he sent the book to five editors, and three of them wanted to buy
it. shrug I got lucky. <g> dgabaldon ga Stevo1 Jamie next JAMIELOVER What type of books did you read at 16 years old? Stevo1 GA Jamie dgabaldon Same type I read now--everything, and lots of it. <g> ga

been dying to know ever since i can remember, and I figure you must know
something I don't. :-) Does love like that really exist, outside of books and
movies? ::blushing:: Cameron-MacLeod Thanks Ishie....don't need THAT here! :D
*** AmberofLallybroch has joined #Reading_1 dgabaldon Er...I've been with my husband for 27 years, and didn't plan
to trade him in. <g> Does that help? ga Ishie You're welcome Stevo1 GA Duchess SuzannefromLI Jamie really did a number on Bree in the cave was that so
necessary? LadyLeeC To think Snoopy would talk like that! Duchess C & J will be part of the revolution I'm sure (read Sara's
book), but what about Roger and Brianna?? Cameron-MacLeod LOl Stevo1 Suzanne, type "?" if you have a question Londubh HAHAHA,Lee! ^4C616479537069646572C2A9 This IS SO GREAT!!! I ^4C616479537069646572C2A9 oops..sorry LadyLeeC :-) dgabaldon Suz--Well, Jamie understands a whole lot more about the
experience of being raped than I do. I reckon _he_ thought it was necessary. ga

<g> ga Stevo1 type "?" if you have a question Wanderer2 hello Belle2 "?" Stevo1 Belle is next Wanderer2 edwige been in here? Ritavz Thanks! dgabaldon Belle--the genealogies are entirely factual...up to a certain
point. <g> They were done for me as a favor by an ex-member of the Royal
College of Heralds. ga lizbooks haven't seen, edwige Duchess ? Wanderer2 ok, thanks Stevo1 queue is empty Wanderer2 D?? Stevo1 ga duchess JJ2 ? Duchess C & J will be part of the revolution I'm sure (read Sara's

your characters - if so, where does the real give way to the fictional Ritavz ? LadyLeeC ? ladyelaine ? highpriestess60 ? dgabaldon I don't know how big a part Roger and Bree have in the
