In reply to J.Q. Rose. Thanks for stopping by, J.Q. I did the same thing with Heather's post. I'm in editing hell right now, so I commiserated:)

Great post. I know that feeling of working a book to death. It’s all worth it in the end!

I actually was bobbing my head in agreement with your post. Sometimes I think I will throw up if I have to read another chapter in my work over again. I like that “writing is re-writing”. Aint that the truth! But it is so worth it. I have enjoyed every one of the Alvarez mysteries and looking forward to settling in with another. Best wishes!

Such a fun post. It’s always nice to hear not only about other writers’ processes but also to see that even published novelists still struggle with the things the rest of us do.

In reply to Stacy Green. Regarding the baby names, desperate times call for desperate measures. Sometimes I scan the newspaper for names or flip open the phone book. Doesn't always work, tho. Aphrodite Goldfarb? Not really the best of names. I let that one go.

That was a great post Heather. You have voiced exactly how I have felt (and my stories are much shorter) Your story sounds fabulous and I’m sure book 4 will be another best seller. So get the coffee ready and dig in (maybe some Baileys, too!)

Dang! I never thought about using the Baby Name Book for character names! I’m stealin’ that!
