Oops ! Commenting Is Fixed
P.S. I was so disappointed SH didn't have an update

Joel  Erik

So,  I have this nifty software that tells me some of the ages of people who leave comments on Cobalt blogs. I felt as if I set a bad example by going ALL CAPS on Joel and Erik on Shawna's blog. I overreacted and should have just ignored them because I very quickly realized that their words literally mean nothing to me. We at Cobalt love hearing what great things readers have to say in person and online, I think we have seen a tweet pic of Erik's face when someone admits they have read his books. A nice comment goes along way.

- I swear this isn't a PR stunt (;

Updated Editor

As you can probably tell I updated my blogger editor and it was messing severely with the template so I had to change it.

Twist, Maybe ? Cop-Out, no

Somewhere in the middle of HOF (chapter 4 maybe ?), I had the prologue of DSI stuck in my mind. It was just a fun thought but once I had the plot I had to make it happen. Sure, maybe I originally wanted to kill of Mr. Fierro because it logically made sense as the only way Lucie would stop haunting Clara.

I was adamant about defying my own logic and not killing him off and was one of the reasons I had hard time with HOF. It was never really about him dying it was about him choosing to die choosing to leave Clara that really mattered. In other words having free will and not acting on it.

So, In HOF something happens discretely in the last chapter.

When Clara is in the police station and runs into Emile she notices

I noticed Emile's shoes were covered in dirt and snow and I realized he had been digging.

Clara assumes he was burying Mr. Fierro's body back (*shudder*) in his grave.

She assumes he was burying a body and he was. In the previous Chapter Addison begins to dig up his own grave but stops.


What Emile actually did was take the body of the Reverend (remember him) and buries him in the open grave. Now because Martin is insisting that he met a man who died 50 years ago Sheriff Rainer digs up the grave which leads to this line.

Sheriff Rainer had driven herself mad after where they found the body of a reverend.

Which was one of the reasons I focused on Rainer in the end. She could possible put the pieces together about Roger and Lucie killing Mr. Fierro.

Missed Music Moment of Awesome

I truly loved the choice of Hey Ya for the last chapter of HOF, however the other option was Where You Are by Josh Groban. But I don't entirely like the song. . . It's a little cheesy.
