A flicker of bright news:  after setting up and editing 15 chapters of Looking for Answers, yesterday saw a record 400 hits on the tcreader website for the two books.  Yee haw!  I am hoping that we may see some new readers pop up in the Greenlea Tales main thread as a result.

Thanks, Louise.  You're right, of course.  I know it will pass.  "..in its own time" is the perfect way to put that.

Yee haw is right!  Congratulations!

Loved it! It was great watching the rhythm of that phone conversation - both of them "scoring points."  Yep, Paula should have called Ellery and asked for a meeting between the three of them.  And how funny was this:

“So yer sayin this wasn’t a personal call? You really did want ta get this deal worked out?”

Jeremy is sweet - but he needs to learn that sometimes a little bit of guile can be useful.  LOL!  Because he just set himself up for my favorite part:

Not every woman in this town is lying in wait to capture you and rescue you from an evil life of homosexuality, regardless of what your Chief Deputy may fill your head with.”

“He don’t.”

"He don.'t"  Ha!  She almost quoted Ellery word-for-word!  But even though Jeremy can sometimes be guileless, he's very smart.  He has Ellery pegged perfectly.  And he also realizes that his Chief Deputy Legs and the A.D.A. are more alike than either of them know (or would probably care to admit). 

First-rate dialogue, as usual, Louise.  Okay, now for Round 2! 

Thanks!
Marie

Yes, Marie, fortunately for us and unfortunately for all of them, there WILL be a Round 2 before they get a plea agreement with the sulky little weasel, Leon Sebastian.
