You are hilarious. And actually I'm not sure that is lake louise...I think Linda said it was loch lomand or Loch ness or something like that...but there's an idea I'll hide away for then the ego gets totally out of control...all louise all the time...only something to do with 'louise' allowed in my orbit.Louise Penny Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10316557270587688970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885582611314646448.post-56486314150907816262009-02-27T08:41:00.000-08:002009-02-27T08:41:00.000-08:00Dear Lil,Ha, common sensical...I'm sure that's cor...Dear Lil,<BR/><BR/>Ha, common sensical...I'm sure that's correct but it does sound like non-sensical. <BR/><BR/>But thank you for the compliment. Do you know what I find messes most people up? a lack of gratitude. Of really knowing how lucky they are. At least, whenever I'm feeling and acting rotten that's normally at the core.<BR/><BR/>And thank you for your kind words about the Agatha. I agree about Anne Perry. Brilliant. She's actually the guest of honour at Malice Domestic this year.Louise Penny Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10316557270587688970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885582611314646448.post-8006013964302847902009-02-27T08:38:00.000-08:002009-02-27T08:38:00.000-08:00Dear Jo B.,Oh, a flock of cardinals in your redbud...Dear Jo B.,<BR/><BR/>Oh, a flock of cardinals in your redbud...what a wonderful sentence to be able to write. I wish I had both!! Red buds don't do well here, slightly too cold. And I keep looking for cardinals but they don't come to our feeders. Oh well. I'm very glad you have them - pigs and all!Louise Penny Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10316557270587688970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885582611314646448.post-68379128433087369362009-02-26T18:40:00.000-08:002009-02-26T18:40:00.000-08:00Congratulations on the nomination!

He is resisting because we are also going to Ireland in March and San Francisco at the end of May, but I can be very persuasive. :) Hope to see you there.<BR/><BR/>KarenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885582611314646448.post-39061527819395788352009-02-26T16:05:00.000-08:002009-02-26T16:05:00.000-08:00just an end-of-winter ramble from the arrogant tar...just an end-of-winter ramble from the arrogant tart.<BR/><BR/>1st, don't we all enjoy louise's slight malapropisms. Somebody else has already remarked on these. They are whimsical, endearing. Driving conditions in to montreal for yet another nerve-wracking appointment with yet another daunting coiffeuse are hairy. Close friend has a hit replacement operation.<BR/><BR/>2nd, Frozen River. Haven't seen this flic yet. Take smuggling, though. Now there's a robust Québec tradition. They smuggle everything from booze to bodies, including weapons and countless tons of plant materials mostly smokeable. Long term, how can Gamache keep himself away from such a story.<BR/><BR/>3rd, i have decided that the top photograph on your website home page (horizontal pic of lake w mountains) is really Lake Louise alberta in the foreground, plus the talented scottish webmistress has cleverly substituted a picture of the Grampians in the background instead of glacier-clad mount Victoria which in reality towers straight up from the headwaters of lake Louise. Is there a joke here, some kind of sub voce. Are there more "louise" clues embedded in the website. Louise, are you personally in on this, or did the webmistress outfox you and set these up while you weren't looking.humble_piehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01573073947464059284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885582611314646448.post-62679838317716017972009-02-25T14:29:00.000-08:002009-02-25T14:29:00.000-08:00Just catching up on your blogs. the Empire is doin...Just catching up on your blogs. the Empire is doing really well-see the Oscars, and the nominations for the book award. What a wonderful group of writers you are. but I must say you are the most personal, and very personable. I met Anne Perry at a signing some years ago, and she struck me as sheer brilliance, which of course you are as well. Truly, each of you is unique and very inspiring. I hope your party turns out well. You two seem to be a devoted and caring couple. It is wonderful to see that these days. By the way, in my other life, I'm a psychotherapist. I wish all my ladies were as common sensical (?) as you are.lil Glucksternhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09288522126331817172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885582611314646448.post-40732748400245326432009-02-25T12:10:00.000-08:002009-02-25T12:10:00.000-08:00Congratulations on your nomination!
