I built in some characteristics of different people I know, to ground the character(s). I really wanted to allow the story to be the main feature of the book, with sufficient growth in the character(s) to retain reality. I wanted the characters "ordinary" enough to be believable and obtainable.(less)

It's rude to leave links to your books in comments on the threads of other authors. Do you always do this? Do you ever get negative feedback about it?

I didn't intend it to be rude. I thought I thank the person who has just befriended me, and as I have looked at their profiles in some detail, thought my profile is a bit sparse when compared to someone like yourself who has pages of books written. So I include the one book that I do have should you want to learn more about me in return. This is the first negative response I have received, and if you feel so strongly about it, I would try and remove the comment.(less)

What does Amanda look like from the outside?

This is something that I have spent an enormous amount of time on thinking about.

For the casual observer she would be just another person.

Attractive? Slightly above average with the grace that comes from formal dancing lessons.
Physical appearance? She is surprisingly short, with a lean body. Her hairstyle changes constantly, but she is articulate when she dresses and applies make-up.
Intelligent? S Read more of this blog post »
