You three had something to do with that, writing a fabulous book and all. Although, CBs buying a billion books when we invaded Dayton may have helped.

It’s the perfect symbiotic relationship. We want good books, you guys write good books. Then we buy the good books so that you can write more so that we can buy them!

Wonderful book. Thank you!!! excellent ending. You put in everything and made it perfect. ( I did miss Pia).
Burp. If there ever was a question that you wanted to ask Jenny, Anne, or Lani now is your chance.

Dunno if anyone is still looking at this, but I had a question that really makes more sense to ask here.
I just re-read D&G and actually remembered to ask: I noticed (or possibly re-noticed, I forget) the Peg/ Daisy name thing. Does Humusi also mean something similar, or is it made up?
Diane - first, apologies for being absent for so long. I thought people had lost interest, and forgot to check the SPAMMED folder. I was in the guts of the blog this morning and saw all these spammed comments and felt really bad - so I’m going to try to answer now!
Humusi is a real Mesopotamian goddess name. Jenny gave us a list, and I picked Humusi because I had a hummus joke that ended up getting cut anyway. There’s no real meaning aside from that - I wanted a cheap laugh.

Thanks, Lani - it wasn’t clear that it was an appropriate question to ask on your blog or Argh, Ink (in the absence of a recent D&G post), but I was vaguely wondering.
I appreciate your answer - obviously some of the urgency had worn off, since it took me as long to notice your answer as it did you to make it, but it probably would’ve bugged me the next time I read the book, so it’s good to know.
Bummer on the hummus joke - although hummus is a sort of inherently funny word, so it’s had its effect anyway in giving me a laugh today.

Thank you all so much.
I miss Pia, too. Except now I live with her and her name’s Veronica.
Jenny, Anne, and Lani are going to be discussing D&G on the Cherry Forums Book Club starting tomorrow
