I do love the mountains. I would love to visit Ireland one day. I'm always glad to discover a new author, especially a Canadian one.

It's like a Canadian opportunist city LOL. And YES!! I always miss the Us in books when I read them too! x) I find it so weird how they're different here than in the US!<br /><br />Amazing interview, you two! :) I'm absolutely in love with this Canadian feature and I can't wait to find out about more awesome Canadian authors like C.K.! <3Mimi Valentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04241457025232914551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-79797560218416299892012-03-05T21:50:39.333-05:002012-03-05T21:50:39.333-05:00C.K. is a Canadian author I haven't read any b...C.K. is a Canadian author I haven't read any books from yet so I will have to try one of her books.

That sounds right up my alley. <br /><br />And how cool to have a Jane Austen action figure close by for inspiration. <br /><br />P.S.

I've only read three of her books but my favorite is still "I Know It's Over". That book blew me away.Rummanah Aasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119402559076729383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-54650903778043247472012-03-05T09:42:21.481-05:002012-03-05T09:42:21.481-05:00Great interview!

I really appreciate authors who try to dabble in other genres, going outside their comfort zone, and I'm sure this will play out wonderfully for Martin.<br /><br />Thanks for starting this new feature.
