Full of turkey and full of enthusiasm for the season and best of all full of excitement because the first major revision of AFDOC is coming to a close. Every day still brings surprises when I stumble on new ideas. Flannery O'Connor, among many other writers, is quick to remark that you don't know your characters until the initial draft of your book is done or for some about half-way through. It's so true. Caroline and I have been friends for years and yet this week new parts of her personality jumped out at me as I rewrote one of the most serious and poignant parts of the book. Just goes to show you really never know anyone.
Hope your holidays were special and Black Friday didn't leave you and your wallet in agony.
Keep putting those words on the page. Mahala
