Now we share the love of writing. The characters are so different and all sound quite interesting.

I write comic novels, and you are right on the mark, Lesley. Not only do you have to give the reader a great plot and good characterization like everyone else, but they also expect you to be just as funny (or funnier) next time around. It's an extra expectation.<br />My voice teacher used to say I made up my own operas too, but that was only in disgust.Melodie Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870938103759179132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10479189974436584.post-13628706933582887192011-11-11T11:47:53.407-05:002011-11-11T11:47:53.407-05:00Susan,

I'm sure that gives her a lot of insight into her characters' motivations, which adds another dimension to a writer's work.Patricia Gligor's Writers Forumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16801554698484928100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10479189974436584.post-86260531770295880952011-11-11T10:35:57.855-05:002011-11-11T10:35:57.855-05:00Great interview!
