Yay for Carrie! I remember getting her invite to join the Unusual Historicals blog, lo, these many moons ago. She’s an awesome and very cool person (ask her about gunfights of the Old West some time), and I’m so eager to read about hott Will Scarlet. (And here’s yet another vote for Ray Winstone.)

Thanks, everyone, and thanks to Jane for having me. And I’ll have be sure to tell me husband about the two Ray Winstone nods–his favorite Will Scarlet(t)!

I really enjoyed reading this — esp. the part about Ann Aguirre and you daring each other to go to RWA. And “Two bags! No stroller!” Thanks for sharing this first sale story.

Carrie, congrats on your sale! I can’t say I share the Christian Slater fascination (although he was a hottie in HEATHERS), but I love the idea of basing a story around Will Scarlett. And Stacy, thanks for the tip re: the version where Ray Winstone (I LOVE that man!) plays him in the Brit version!
