Welcome! This week I asked my fellow authors – How do you choose your character’s names? Do you have a system, a book, an app or is it random? I personally usually start with a name that has some meaning. Like in the book I’m writing now the heroin’s name is Esme. Esme means esteemed. It worked for the character and the story because Esme is a truly good person, and her name needed to reflect that. The Hero’s name is William. I liked this because he’s a reluctant war hero, and I just loved the sound of Sir William. … Continue reading →

This week’s topic came from me! – Father’s day is this coming Sunday. Do you have a great dad memory? If not, can you make one up? We’re writers after all. My dad was a character. He was the guy with a joke, and they weren’t always “dad” jokes. He was fun and loud. Six feet three inches tall and always the life of the party. He was the middle son of three, but never suffered from middle child syndrome. We always had a good time when my dad was around. He worked in NYC when I was a kid, … Continue reading →

Welcome back. This week our topic comes from Brenda Margriet – Do you have a pet? Or have a special pet memory? Please share – and photos welcome! This is Molly Dog. She was so named because she was a rescue and came to us with the name Molly. Our cat was already named Molly, and so they became Molly Cat and Molly Dog. We lost our Molly Dog two and a half years ago, and I’m still choked up talking about this sweet loving pup. She had been the neighborhood dog and abandoned many times in Texas before she … Continue reading →
