As for me, Shelley, this was a perfect post. I, too, need to be meaner to my characters and give them more of a workout. Mallory has it dead on…mercury retrograde.

Hubby's too. :mrgreen: Mallory - you think? Anything is possible with that pesky Mercury Retrograde. :wink: Jennifer - yeah, it's funny now. Not so much at the time. Scotty is currently sitting in her new basket. Dexter is gonna have to fight her for it if he wants it back! Amy – the plot certainly held my attention. Hubby’s too.

Mon, 12 Jan 2009 21:48:10 +0000 http://www.shelleymunro.com/blog/?p=1221#comment-8402 Wel, as strictly a reader and not an author I thought it was riveting as a story. I was hooked and can't wait for the conclusion to appear in another couple of days. LOL! I have no problem with tension and more tension, my problem is when it takes forever to get there. Too much set-up and description of the "unknown" back story. I love those books who just throw you into a situation or problem that the main character is having/going through. Bring it on I say! But don't leave me hanging (Shelley!) Or I may go insane and take you off my list of authors because while I'm all for big mysteries taking place over several books or a series but most of the little ones need to be resolved and wrapped up in a pretty bow by the end of the book. Oh, and yes a book is boring if there's not enough tension, I have been known to throw them across the room in cases like that. Hugs, -Amy P.S. I hope he gets to keep his "new" basket and that the carpet is perfectly ok. Wel, as strictly a reader and not an author I thought it was riveting as a story.

She took to this basket immediately and somehow I don't think she's going to give it up easily. :mrgreen: The verdict is still out on the carpet. Leah - that's what I thought. If I wrote all that in a book, no one would believe it. Scotty still has possession of Dexter’s basket. She took to this basket immediately and somehow I don’t think she’s going to give it up easily.
