Hi All,
Herself was in Edmonton last nite to promote ABOSAA. And she was awesome!
This is the 2nd time that I have seen her and this time, it was up close and
in person too (was sitting in the front row)! For the first 40 min or so,
she talked about how she got into writing and how the idea of writing the
book came about. It all started with a man in a kilt, who then morphed into
a 6ft man with red hair! And that was 15 years ago that Outlander was first
published.
She assured us that there is at least one more book and possibly TWO to the
series. The books have been optioned 4 times to be made into a miniseries,
but nothing has come of the options. Then she read a few pages from the new
book, a scene with Jamie and Ian visiting an Indian village (don't worry, I
won't be saying anything more - ie a spoiler!). I'm ashamed to say that
I've only read a few pages of the wee buik and that's when I was standing in
line last nite to have the 3 books with me autographed. I also had my
picture taken with her - second time too!
I'm surprised at myself that I'm taking my time about getting into the
book - just wanting to savour it I guess.
