It only took a few pages for me to really, really, care what happens to, Honor, your heroine. <br /><br />In my book, the best ‘hook’ is not a cliffhanger; it’s Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12707773426729777989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098811.post-83829171102133246882012-06-11T13:41:34.869+01:002012-06-11T13:41:34.869+01:00Hi Vince,

I usually write one, plus maybe a serial or a novella, then a couple of columns a month for a writing magazine and one after most Formula 1 races.<br /><br />In spare time, I teach. And judge competitions.<br /><br />No, I'm afraid the Seagulls didn't get a mention. I hope you enjoy Love & Freedom.Sue Moorcrofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437522010690696601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098811.post-37754543904324468982012-06-10T06:27:49.061+01:002012-06-10T06:27:49.061+01:00Lovely to have you here, Sue.

Are there any shades of Susan Sontag in your Honor character? <br /><br />With all that research, you can’t write four books a year, can you?<br /><br />Do you mention the Seagulls in your book? My Foxes split with them last season. <br /><br />What is <i>Choc Lit</i>? In the USA that would be books about African Americans. <br /><br />Do you Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12707773426729777989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098811.post-5792763645886853112012-06-09T15:44:42.941+01:002012-06-09T15:44:42.941+01:00Absolutely.

I agree that you are always 'on duty' as a writer but isn't it great to live the the life you want to lead?

It's always fascinating to me to read about how other writer's novels evolve... even enlisting their hungover family members in the name of research!Chris Stovellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03741359642268813093noreply@blogger.com
