Hi Susan:

My name is Jay Bates. I host a podcast (recorded live as well as in a studio) that is published once a month. We cover Pacific Northwest writers and musicians. I was curious if you might be interested in writing a blog about our program. Garth Stein–a recent guest on our show–led me to your blog. Feel free to contact me at jayabates@hotmail.com

Thanks,

Jay Bates

Susan,

I’ve “just found you” this summer, as well as some of the readers here. I’ve always been a strongly devoted Nora Roberts fan and have read most everything of hers. Lately, I’ve been leaning toward your books.

I’m exhaused as I write this from staying up until 3 AM reading Summer by the Sea. Last week, it was all three Lakeside Cronicles. I love the characters and can always picture them clearly in my head. I love the sweet men in your stories and the hint of sex without the minute by minute graphic image.

Carry on, and thank you for sharing your talent. I’ve now read all of the contemporary novels as I do not like the historial romance fiction as well. Some readers do, but I prefer modern days. Thanks for the sleepless night. You are a very gifted writer.

I love your books. I have trouble putting them down once I start them. I do have a question for though. Do you plan on writing a book about Daisy Bellamy and her friend Julian Gastineaux? I truely do hope so! Well thank you for writing these amazing books.

“At three minutes and four seconds after 2 AM on the 6th of May this year, the time and date will be 02:03:04 05/06/07. This will never happen again. So I’m setting the time stamp for this post for that moment. Enjoy the moment!”

Not true. This time and date has occurred every 100 years since the year 0007.

I have had the opportunity to share Summer by the Sea, with my new neighbor down the street, and Table for Five with another teacher at my school. They both LOVED the books, and had never “read you” before. I am going to continue to loan, (not give), your books to my young friends
(they each have 3 kids, the younger ones being pre-schoolers). I want these young women to learn the life lessons that seem to be in each one of your books.

Susan,

I am working on my first novel, and I have been surveying every author I meet with about the issue of representation. Should my first stop along the road to publication be finding a good agent? I am hearing conflicting opinions. What do you think? Is it best to send your first manuscript out to publishers or to agents?

I’ve just discovered you. I’m reading “The Winter Lodge” and totally loving it. I have a feeling that The Lakeshore Chronicles will become one of my favorite series of books.

Puget Sound is beautiful! I like in Oregon and love taking the train because I get to see the Sound on my way to a Seattle Mariners game!

Thanks for creating such amazing characters in your stories!
