Indeed. We thank you! (Also, the cat is likely to eat me if she doesn't get fed, so a certain amount of income does indeed keep me writing...)

Snacking, folks, snacking. I don't know where you got any other ideas, and frankly I'm not sure I want to know =)

I was wondering why 8 episodes per season and not the traditional 13?

Ours run longer. *g*
(In the US, a standard season is 22-24 episodes, though networks will sometimes hedge their bets and commit to a series 13 episodes or fewer at a time. In Britain, the standard is more like 6 episodes, I believe. I guess this boils down to, "standard" is kind of, um, non-standard.)

Season 1 ends at the end of May. (Which means there are two more episodes, and interstitial material.)
However, we are working on plans to give you guys a new toy to play with over the summer. Amanda may have an announcement by the end of the month.

I figure the Celts believe that anyone who speaks your name gets power over you.  |

It's okay. I can't pronounce most of them either. It's why I'm a writer, not an actor. Though Murchaud pronounces his as though it were French, not Gaelic. |
