How in the world am I ever going to write all these ideas?<br /><br />Stephanie, too true!<br /><br />Robert, I'm glad you were surprised too! <br /><br />Elizabeth, there are quite a few minor characters, aren't there? I suppose that can happen after 3 books.<br /><br />Lyn! I think we all probably would like that ability, but you know, there may be some people who would hate having the responsibility it brings. I imagine the brain may get slightly muddled with multiple time streams.Crystal Collierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03912469552483168148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040914078355130442.post-14517876400788809712016-11-14T22:30:37.254+00:002016-11-14T22:30:37.254+00:00I'm seeing you everywhere, Crystal!!

Unless you wanted to pull them into the modern era. My goodness, they'd die of bliss for the variety. I do compare their personalities to cheese in the doppelganger quiz though.
