Jaunty ‘jacks the Blog
Written by Jaunty Quills in News
Hello all you Quills out there! It’s me, Jaunty P. Quills, Porcupine Extraordinaire. Once again, I have taken over the blog (Did you notice my title? I said it that way because I’m hip. Yeah, baby!)
It seemed to me that lately the Jaunty Quills have been blogging about really boring stuff, i.e. stuff not about me. So let’s talk a bit about me.
I’m handsome.
I’m smart.
I’m sexy.
I’m…oh, I could go on and on. And I will, except that I wanted to make sure everyone knows the dirt I’ve got on the Jaunties. Shhh. This is just between us.
Robyn DeHart must be working for the CIA or something because she’s being awfully secretive about what’s going on in her office. I even tried bribing her with chocolates, but she’s not budging. She did mumble something about making a big announcement sometime in the future.
Shana Galen is working on a new proposal. She tried to hide it, but I have a feeling she just doesn’t want to admit that I’m the hero. She’s also getting ready for a romantic date on her second wedding anniversary. She doesn’t yet know that I’ll be tagging along!
Shirley Karr is taking care of little Daniel Jaunty Karr. I think there’s been something about his paternity she’s been wanting to reveal. Hint, hint. Look at the middle name…
Cindy Kirk is still recovering from her broken hand. And don’t look at me like that! I had almost nothing to do with that!
Margo Maguire is working her fingers to the bone on a new book with a really wild premise, entitled … WILD. How ironic (heh heh). She is working diligently in order to finish before taking a lovely, romantic trip to Paris with her husband. OK, maybe not that romantic, since he has to go for work. But Margo is planning on some wild, romantic fun. April in Paris! Yay! (I’m going along with her, too!)
Anne Mallory is working on a new book and eagerly anticipating her May release, Three Nights of Sin. I think one of those nights is about me.
But enough about them and more about me!
I’m suave and charming and conceited…hey! Wait a minute! Don’t help, Margo!
Sigh. Just let me tell you about the guest bloggers I’ve scheduled.
Victoria Alexander will be blogging with us on Saturday. You know you want to stop by for that.
My veeery good friend Sophie Jordan writes her monthy guest blog on Tuesday.
Kick-butt author Sandra K. Moore joins us March 12, and right after her is Delores Fossen. Two guests in a row! See how awesome I am?
Let’s see. Oh! Judy Duarte will be here March 24 and Christie Craig stops by March 28. Christie is hilarious, by the way.
I rounded out the month with Jan Kenney on March 29 and Julianne MacLean on March 31.
And we ever have a sneak preview for April! Gayle Callen will be here on April 3rd and Lisa Plumley is here April 17.

Jane Says:
Hi Jaunty,
I’m so glad you’re sharing all this great info with us, what would we do without you?
Danny Says:
Hi Jaunty,
thanks for the information. Sounds that we have a lot of fun ahead of us
Robyn DeHart Says:
Now Jaunty, you said all those pesky questions you were asking me were for taxes. I didn’t realize you were spying on us. Naughty, naughty little porcupine.
And really, Shana, must you encourage him by writing him into one of your books?
Margo Maguire Says:
Will somebody please tell Jaunty that he cannot come to Paris with me? No no no porcupines allowed!
Anne Mallory Says:
We will attempt the industrial-strength, porcupine-approved, duct tape, Margo, but you know how that pokey little rat is…he’ll probably get into your suitcase and spear your linens anyway.
Shana Galen Says:
My hero? Keep dreaming, Jaunty.
Fedora Says:
Wow, thanks for the extremely thorough update, Jaunty–clearly some porcupine’s been pretty busy…
Margo, you probably needed worry about a certain someone coming along to Paris–aren’t there quarantine rules or something?
Fedora Says:
What I meant to type was “you probably needn’t worry”–sorry!
Amy Says:
Hello Jaunty!!!
I’m super excited for the line up and Thank you for letting us in on it.
Amy
Helen Says:
Jaunty thanks for all that information I will certainly be here.
Have Fun
Helen
Haven Rich Says:
Oh sounds like an exciting time around here.
And Robyn, just so you know, the more secretive you are, the more curious we are (umm, by we I mean ME!).
Mary M Says:
Jaunty, thanks for the news! Now, you’ve told us about women who are smitten with you but you still haven’t told us, who flattens your quills?
Jaunty P. Quills Says:
Well, Mary, let’s just say I had a fabulous Valentine’s Day down under with a certain romance author…initials A.C. You can see my picture on her website now
