13:46 😢 playgrounds need more chalk, rainbows and acceptance and less judgement 💜📚

Sad I was asleep for this, but the replay brought me endless amounts of joy!! Congrats on hitting this milestone, and even more congrats on getting settled back home!! I had only caught little glimpses of the entire situation, but gosh... that sounds horrifying and exhausting. Glad you are in a better place now, it can only go up from here! Can't wait to see what you have in store for us, I am excited for it all 🥰🥰

Esmay, I felt like I was living under a cursed star for a bit there... As you say though, I'm home now, and I'm feeling good - so fingers crossed I can get some content from my head to the screen!

4:38 - oh my goodness Deri!!! I had no idea you were having to deal with so many upheavals. You are a superstar and I am so sorry you ate going through such instability 💜💜💜🫂

Thanks Angela, it's lovely to share my addiction and love of these books! Though I'm going to try and squeeze in more 'non'-❤️Hobb❤️this year.

16:00 - I'm his mother and I say yes to hugs and lots of dog walks and no to slaps and unsupervised drinking and diplomatic discussions!!!

Just finished this. Wonderfull conversation. Sad I missed the live. Congratulations Derri. You created niche of 2 very good series, so don't be surprised. You deserve many more subs. Missed you. Glad you're back. ❤

Thanks Vero, hopefully this year I'll succeed in sharing more NON-❤️Hobb❤️content on top of all the RoTE discussions. For all my love of the series, I do read other things too! That reminds me, I need to talk to Jimmy Nutts about ASOIAF collab!

@@derrisreaditbefore That sounds great! Still need to read ASOIAF. So many books. Sometimes I wished I didn’t like so many genres! 😂 Still watching your recording while getting ready. We have 4 dogs, but we have lost 3 in the past and I totally agree about what you said about their love. We did have a cat for 20years and she was the devil incarnate 🤣 Oh and I look forward to your Jeopardy!

Congratulations Derri ♥️

Dear Derri - Hello from South Africa I'd never seen your channel before this very moment - it's 16:47 as write this - but I felt the urge to come on over, and say congratulations on your milestone. 500 subscribers may not seem like a lot in comparison to other channels, but it is five times more than one - which is already one more than nothing. I have saved your stream, and I'll be sure to return to it as soon as I can. To a 500 more subscribers and many more. Cheers!

AWW Thank you Jonathan! It's flattering you stopped to check out the livestream, and even more so that you plan to watch the rest of it. Welcome to my wee world 😊

Hi derri is there a way to message you directly? I have some questions I'd love to discuss about ROTE with you.

Hiya, if you have a discord account, that's probably the easiest way - I can be found in the ❤️Hobb❤️ or Pratchett threads at Library of Allenxandria, Mikes Book Reviews, or The Fireside. My username is easy peasy, Derri - loves Queen Hobb. I'm always happy to talk RoTE, so if I'm live, ask anything you like in the chat - I'll answer! In fact, this is tempting me to do an open Q&A livestream... 🤔
