I think vile is hard to do -- especially in romance, where you mainly want to lift people's spirits and give them a feel good read.Barbara Hannayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03077064170686768953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33374572.post-1168432968552240142007-01-10T04:42:00.000-08:002007-01-10T04:42:00.000-08:00Barb.

I had to turn a character from funny-yet-irritating to thoroughly vile a few months ago and I found I got quite upset at having to do it. I just hope I've made her vile enough for my ed!Phillipahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06327571607067476569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33374572.post-1168043065463439062007-01-05T16:24:00.000-08:002007-01-05T16:24:00.000-08:00Lucky you to have a cleaner, Melissa -- and lovely...Lucky you to have a cleaner, Melissa -- and lovely to have you drop by, too.<BR/>I've tried cleaners at different times, but I'm not good at bossing people and they never do a very good job for me and also, as I sit at my desk all day, I've decided that housework is useful physiotherapy. <BR/>Not that I enjoy it, mind you.Barbara Hannayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03077064170686768953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33374572.post-1167949977540496492007-01-04T14:32:00.000-08:002007-01-04T14:32:00.000-08:00I've tried Flylady, all sorts of different methods...I've tried Flylady, all sorts of different methods. None worked for me. But I finally after many years of frustration discovered the secret to a clean house. Hire a weekly housecleaner. Even hubby agrees now that it's worth it! Huge sigh of relief. <BR/><BR/>I'm really looking forward to that upcoming trilogy. Sounds like a great idea.<BR/><BR/>Have fun with your current characters. I know they'll overcome whatever you toss their way, however devastating!Melissa McClonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16715664439441831529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33374572.post-1167818063436367462007-01-03T01:54:00.000-08:002007-01-03T01:54:00.000-08:00It's only a local mag, 2paw.

How exciting being in a magazine. I don't buy the weekly magazines( well, maybe the English Women's Weekly!!! It has nice knitting) So I will keep an eye out for your coiffed and beauteous self. <BR/>Good luck with Sophie and Mark. Authors remind me of the gods in Terry Pratchett's books: playing fast and loose with the lives of mere mortals!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
