Hi Margaret,
This is a really helpful response as otherwise we have no way of knowing what is going on across 'the pond.'
I am still glad, on balance that DG wrote the series, as those whose interest is kindled (pardon the pun) will follow up with more factual reading.
I laughed at your 'huge, fiery Scots' !! We're pretty damped down these days.
My writing is in another direction at present, but you are right - a book should be written. Possibly in the Summer - mmmh.
Kate.
Keep me posted. I'd like to read it.
