Congratulations on the success of LA VIDA VAMPIRE!<BR/><BR/>And casual is the order of the day here as far as my buddy, Tressa Jayne, goes. For Tressa, it's all about the boots! (Oh, and the short denim skirts, too!)<BR/><BR/>As for characters being at my beck and call: DON'T I WISH! When they're being stubborn, I toss 'em in the shower (okay, so I take a shower) and for some reason that seems to help. I also take my characters for walks or sit on the patio with them and we have a nice heart to heart.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again, Nancy, for kicking it with the dangerous divas of Dorchester!<BR/><BR/>~Kathy a/k/a Bullet Hole Bacus~Kathy Bacushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07549844839816876766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-46186800871188300782008-04-26T16:09:00.000-05:002008-04-26T16:09:00.000-05:00Hi Nancy, Your new book sounds great!
