| Jilly: |
Coffee? |
| bourbon: |
No, bourbon. |
| Jilly: |
Aaah – I mean –coffee, bourbon? |
| bourbon: |
Don’t mind if I do. Any excuse to sit down and talk
Crossing Jordan. |
| Jilly: |
And how long have you been talking Crossing Jordan? |
| bourbon: |
Oh, since Day 1 – but I’ve been an addict since
Season 2. |
| Jilly: |
An addict? So, define that for me! |
| bourbon: |
How’s this for size? At that time I had a newborn baby
who used to wake up for nursing in the middle of the night - |
| Jilly: |
Indeed. Been there, done that. |
| bourbon: |
and the only way she’d get back to sleep was with the
TV on, so we started watching A&E’s repeats of Crossing
Jordan. I got totally hooked. |
| Jilly: |
So hooked that you started writing … |
| bourbon: |
Since 2004 – it’s been a great creative outlet.
I love writing. |
| Jilly: |
Twenty one stories – and how many are WoJo? |
| bourbon: |
Oh, well … most of them. All of them? I’m a WoJo
shipper from way back And I do love me some angst. |
| Jilly: |
Angst, indeed! All of those difficult Woody/Jordan moments
must have left you deeply affected. |
| bourbon: |
Never! I’m a much more cheerful person than some of
those stories might lead you to think. There’s much more
going on in my life than (whispers) Crossing Jordan. |
| Jilly: |
Such as … |
| bourbon: |
Well – born and raised in the Philadelphia area. I’m
married, with two rambunctious kids – a three year old
and a five year old. And a wonderful husband – he’s
in the US Air Force … |
| Jilly: |
...overseas placement? |
| bourbon: |
Yes – and I do miss home. As much as I love Boots the
Chemist and Tesco, I miss Target and Taco Bell. But there’s
much to be said for the land of Shakespeare. I even like rain
… |
| Jilly: |
…just as well … |
| bourbon: |
I’m a lawyer – but don’t hold that against
me. I’m also an organist – play for my Church. Love
reading – Alison Weir’s a favorite. |
| Jilly: |
Love her biography of Eleanor of Aquitaine. Any other hobbies? |
| bourbon: |
Come, now! Besides VS7 and raising kids – who’s
got time for any other hobbies? |
| Jilly: |
Which brings us back to Jordan and Woody – you are going
to see that VS7 sets things right, aren’t you? |
| bourbon: |
Hmmm. You’ll just have to wait and see, won’t
you. But … hold that thought. Hold that thought. |
