Well, well, well indeed.
Are you happy? I think you've just made a zillion fans faint off their desk chairs. They're going to come clawing back up to their keyboards either very happy, or very desperate for more... Probably both.
(I did not faint. I already know you're tricky like this. Plus, fainting would disturb the Kippy on my lap.)
Also? Love it!

Oh! Oh! Please tell us this has a future . . . If you were just going to tuck it away again you didn't have to be so mean as to let out just that teeny little snippet. We'll come steal your roses and picket your bell-tower if you vanish it again.

Well I'll be ...
What a lovely treat. I too am eager to hear whether you are merely going to torture us with a snippet or whether, since it saw fit to creep back into view you'll put it in line for it's chance to gladden the hearts of your fans.

Robin -- I think your mischievousness must be getting away with you! Because you are going to get all your fans (including me, I must admit) into a serious tizzy with this! You, more than anyone else, must know how crazed we all are for a new Damar novel!
Hmmm ... perhaps you got the idea from a certain pair of Hellhounds...?
(To be embarrassingly honest, my reaction upon reading the first paragraph and seeing "Chapter One," was along the lines of "What? Huh? Is this--? She can't be putting this online--? Really--?" Followed by the sound of voracious inhaling of words. Which sounds like a cross between "Slurrrp" and the sound which a vacuum makes. I am proud to report, however, that I didn't faint and/or fall off my chair. But as I was reclining on the sofa, I was cheating a little!)

Oh, GOSH, Robin! That was hardly nice! I object!(but thanks!) I'd object less if this were one of the ones on it's way to being published, though...
Now I'm aching for more and there's nothing sweet in the house to take off the edge of the book-craving; we're out of chocolate and there is no ice cream and there's no bread to put the honey on... Also, I probably won't be able to read tonight because there is no way that a Dorothy Sayers can stand up to an Incomplete McKinley...

By the way, how did the duet go?

Aren't piano lessons on Friday? Another 10 hours or so to obsess, cram, dither, etc. Which is only what you deserve for being such a mean book-tease. (No, not really - I truly want you to sail through with sparkling fingers and astound Oisin with your surprise performance.)
Apropos lack-of-practice vs. nerves -- not mutually exclusive, you know. [mumble] years ago, in high school, when I was taking violin lessons, I had a long, involved dream about being at my lesson unable to play ANYTHING due to lack of practice. Fortunately I woke up from such a hideously realistic performance to discover that it was still the morning BEFORE my lesson. There was some "cramming," that day!

I just spent the whole last night going "Kirith, Kirith, that name sounds familiar, who is Kirith? Aunt Kirith sounds right to me....kirith kirith kirith...." I think the Badger and the cat thought I was off my rocker.
I finally remembered that Sabriel's aunt (from Sabriel, by Garth Nix) is also named Kirith, so really what I remembered had nothing to do with Damar or Robin at all. But I did remember! Take that, brain!

I didn't quite fall off the chair, but it was a very near thing.
