My book would be called “The Book About Colin”

LOL! Gee, how long did it take you to come up with that? But you should put an adjective in front of your name, something that sets you apart from all the other Colin’s. 🙂

Nope! “Colin” says all that is necessary!

Well it would be an interesting book for sure! None like it of course. I think mine would be called “Under the Emerald Blue Sky!” It may spark curiosity.🙂

Gee, Carolyn, I hope you’re not coming down with something … bad cough you’ve got there!
We suggested … ahem … that there would need to be an addendum to the “Conclusion”, for the conclusion was not conclusive! No, I didn’t see Jason’s prequel … I shall go look for it in a few minutes … no doubt it’s a winner! Which post is it on … the conclusion (the one that wasn’t conclusive)?

Indeed it does. The questions now are “Where did Anna go?” “Is she really under that white cross?” “How do the Gnus, Unicorns, Gnunicorns and Unignus fit into the plot?” “Is the author simply nuts?”
LikeLiked by 1 person
As if it isn’t complicated enough, now you bring Gnuicorns and Unignus into the plot! Care to explain what a Gnuicorn and a Unignu is?
As far as your question about the author goes … well …. “no comment!”

A Gnunicorn is a cross between a Unicorn and a Gnu where the Gnu is the dominant species. A Unignu is a cross between a Unicorn and a Gnu where the Unicorn is the dominant species. Simple really, and I am surprised that you had to ask.
