I have just finished reading Wedding Ring and have Endless Chain and Lover’s Knot ready to go. I have also read Iron Lace and Rising Tides. Emilie is one of my favorite new discoveries. I am trying to get my hands on everything by her. Great work Emilie!

I am a self professed book nerd with a 5 book a week habit and I am not looking for a support group:}What I am looking for is new authors(to me) who manage to touch my soul and sow the seeds of uncertainity and moral dilemma into the fabric of my conscious soul. If Diane Chamberlain says you are a great writer, then who am I to disagree:} I am looking forward to reading your books.

Thank you, Kim. It’s always a challenge to keep readers interested long enough for the turnaround to begin. Glad I did with you.

When I first started reading One Mountain Away, I thought to myself, “Well, I really don’t care too much for Charlotte….” This feeling was unusual, because I always love the characters in Emilie’s books. But as the pages turned, Emilie revealed more detail and I found my opinion changing. You are a wonderful storyteller Emilie!

Marjorie, what a great cause I’ve just recently heard that service dogs do more than service the seeing impaired but can also sniff out other illnesses too.
Congratulations to your friend’s Granddaughter.
I know that you will enjoy Emilie’s novels (I’ve read them all)
I have only read a couple of Diane’s but they were rich and wonderful too.

Emilie, it’s been a nice conversation thank you for posting it.
see you soon

These blog posts are SO fun to read! They’re like a little peek into the thinking and planning behind each character in your book. I’ve begun to see that they’re not just characters that may or may not evolve in the book, but there’s specific reasons why you chose to change or not change that character. I love reading about the thinking behind each and every character! (=

I was just wondering (and this is a question for both of you) how you choose which characters will change, how you decide the events that lead to that change and also, (this question is really off-topic) how do you get started on a book? What makes you decide “hmm, this sounds like a good idea for a book?”

Also, to Emilie Richards, I found a few of your books on Amazon, and I’m really looking forward to getting a copy of “Whiskey Island”, and “Wedding Ring”! I also want to read One Mountain Away! (=

To Diane, I’ve read every book on the shelves at my library written by you, and I’ve started reading each one a second time. My ultimate favorite is still “The Lies We Told” though. (= I would love to read Summer’s Child! (=

Thank you both for letting us read the discussion between you two wonderful authors! (=
