An interesting thought de jour. Must one like the lead character? Well, I suppose one has to a bit otherwise you'll not wish to read on. Of course what I was doing with my character in WN was attempting to make the reader think. "Hey, what the hell did he do that for?" yet understand that they might very well have made the same mistake and feel sorry for the man. It's always satisfying when someone one gets to hate in a novel gets his just deserts. And I certainly give it to Dermot in spades. And it's great when the characters we get to like don't end up dead. I try to do that. Hmmmm.
Sold out at Borders Century City. They are re-ordering. Hey-ho! Can this be happening all over the U S of A? Let's hope.
AMAZED that one can buy a dozen eggs for 99 cents at the 99 Cent Store. That's breakfast for a family of six for a dollar!
It's off to the Big Apple soon to visit Book Expo America. Can't wait to eat junk food at all the various carts. And Zabar's.... And the Russian Tea Rooms.... and Tiffany's opposite the Plaza.... And the Plaza.....And the Jazz.... And the Tribecca Grill (who knows, Bobby might just be there on the day...)
