Flying High Interview Questions

I'd mentioned a while back that although I didn't have energy for an Adrien English Christmas story this year, I would probably go ahead and do an interview with Adrien and Jake -- something on the lines of Slippery When Wet.

So, in conjunction with Jessewave Reviews, I'm going to be collecting questions for a few days for the interview that will run the next to last week of December. 

Now, guessing from the number of questions that popped up for Will and Taylor's interview, I think I'd better caution people right now that I probably won't use everything and there will be a lot of consolidating as there was for the earlier AE interviews. I won't be using the same format Wave uses.  

If you have a question for Adrien or Jake, go ahead and put it in the comment section below.

  1. What a wonderful holiday gift!! And the picture above is gorgeous - reminds me of home! But down to it - my questions. (1) What happened after the Argyle shooting? Josh left you being followed by a "dark tide", did that turn out to be an omen for more heartache? (2)If you did move into the Porter Ranch house together, how's that working out? What are each of you like as a room mate?

  2. I just want to know if there's any furniture left after the combined attentions of Scout and Tomkins :).

  3. I agree, what a nice Holiday present for all the fans...I miss Adrien & Jake!
    I would like to know how was Paris, and what is a typical day/night like in the Adrien/Jake household?
    (Love the winter picture also!)

  5. There speaks someone who has raised kittens and puppies. :-D

  6. Paris. PARIS? You're going to make me read that darned last book, aren't you? I don't remember Paris!

  7. Poor Josh - too many details - so little time!!!

    It was actually London - Lisa asked Jake what he thought about Christmas in London when he and Adrien were with her in the car/suv...It was right before Adrien threatened to throw himself out of the car and into the oncoming traffic - or something like that... :D

    God, I miss his snark!

  8. My bad! I meant London! ...
    I wrote the question at work and went from memory... :)
    It's the part in TDT where Lisa asks Jake if he has ever been to London (no) and she says they are thinking of spending Christmas in London; and I have a feeling what Lisa wants, Lisa gets.

  9. Thanks, Mary. Thanks, Rdafan. LONDON I remember. :-D

  10. Now that Jake is self-employed, he can frequent his fave S&M bars out in the open. With Adrien's health no longer so delicate, have they thought about indulging some of Jake's rougher tastes in their own "master" bedroom? Prying eyes want to know... ;D

    ReplyDelete
  11. Probably not the most romantic questions... :-P

    Has the post-coming-out situation been improved between Jake and his family? If not, is Jake slowly adopting Adrien's new family? Or driven mad by Lisa and the sisters? :-)

    does Jake feel intimidated by Adrien's "wealth"? Now that he's living in Adrien's house and in the not-so-stable-income PI profession.

    Is Adrien keeping in touch with Guy? Are we going to see a stare down between Jake and Captain Crunch?

  12. So excited for another interview with Jake and Adrien!

    Here are a couple of questions that I haven't seen yet:

    1. Have they had anymore run-ins with Alonzo?

    2. Are Angus and Natalie still both working at the bookstore and, if so, how's that working out?

    3. Is the Partners in Crime group still meeting and did Murder, He Mimed ever get published?

    4. Has there been ongoing fallout from the Paul Kane arrest -- the lawsuits, trial, etc.?

    5. What are they getting each other for Christmas?

    Thanks!!!!!!

  13. Funny how many folks are curious about that aspect, Anonymous. :-D

    ReplyDelete
  14. Oh but they're goood questions all the same, TLA.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Thanks for the questions, Kate! They'll defnitely go on the list.

  16. I realize that some people have already asked about A&J having children. Rather than adoption, however, would they, instead, consider using a surrogate? For some reason, I have a little boy Jake in mind and later, a little girl Adrien.

    And, of course, if they are leaning toward having children, is a marriage or commitment ceremony in the works?

    And we know some of Adrien's hobbies/non-wrkplace activities but little, if any, about Jake's except, LOL, his S&M hobby - which I hope fervently, is now a thing of the past. So will Adrien get Jake up on a horse and will Jake do better than good old Mel did?

  17. I love how they hate these interviews! :-D

    So I thought it would be interesting to see what would each of them want to ask you about the most? That would be an interesting insight. And if they got an answer in turn, it would be awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Hi Aija! That's quite a twist. :-D The problem is characters are so much more interesting than their creators! But we'll see.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Thanks for the questions, China Blue. They'll go straight on the list. ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  20. Josh, you could ask Jake if he thinks he's interesting! :-D (see my point?) But it would be so interesting to see what would they come up with - why did you do this or that to them, or try to find out more about you, thus removing the focus from themselves?

    Either way, thanks for this opportunity! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  21. What types of things do they fight about now that they are living together? I love their verbal fencing!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Does Jake ever run into his ex-wife when he's doing investigations? Can they stand to breathe the same air?

    ReplyDelete
  23. I see what you're saying, Aija. ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Anyonmous1 and Anonymous2, those are both great questions!

    ReplyDelete
  25. I discovered your books a couple of days ago Josh, and since then I've been ploughing through them. My kindle is getting a good work out. The Adrien English series is fantastic, a real page-turner, and the sex is fantastically hot.

    Anyway, the questions...ahem...

    1. Has Adrien met Jake's family yet, and if so, what happened? Oh to be a fly on the wall in that scene...

    2. How have Jake and Adrien reacted to (or become involved with) the whole gay marriage proposition 8 thing? Jake especially - a major part of his hang-ups centre around wanting the whole suburban domestic bliss thing but thinking that this is only possible for straight couples.

    3. Is Angus going to go back to school to finish up his degree?

    4. Is Adrien ever going to top Jake?

    5. What happened to the Cross of Rouen? Was it recovered from the sea?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Thank you, Christopher!

    Those questions went on the ever-expanding list.

  27. Fantastic! I can't wait (by the way, I've just downloaded the 15th of your books so far - and I only discovered you last Thursday!).

    I'm currently a 33 year old unemployed lawyer and in between desperately filling out application forms and sending off CVs (sorry, resumes for you Americans) your books are all that is keeping me sane. Thank you! ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Hey, Christopher! Nice to hear from you. Very happy to do what I can to promote health and sanity this holiday season. ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  29. I would be interested in hearing if Jake and/or Adrien ever run into Kate also. Seems like that might be something for 'the next book'????

    ReplyDelete
  30. I'm with Pauline! There is nothing wrong with being an optimist - especially in the season of Christmas miracles! *g* (This is mernetha13, for some reason I couldn't post with my lj ID!)

  31. Josh, Where and when on the Jake and Adrien interview?

    ReplyDelete
  32. Some questions that i've been thinking about...

    1. What are Jake and Adrien getting each other for Christmas?

    2. Has Adrien ever taken Jake horseback riding?

    3. Are their pets getting along?

    4. Do they have any fears about their future together?

    5. Where would they go if they ever get married and go on a honeymoon?

    anxiously awaiting responses... haha :) happy holidays!!

  33. Just downloaded the interview Flying High, and I wanted to say it was all kinds of wonderful getting a glimpse of Adrien and Jake being together as a couple. I just fell in love with them all over again; thanks for giving us this chance to catch up to how they're doing. Wishing you and yours the best this holiday season. :)

  34. I'm very glad! Thank you -- and the same good wishes to you and yours.
