Mary Lynn Hansel posted a blog postAnatomy of a Novel - The Sarran Plague, A Moral Dilemma

The type of conflict I chose was a moral dilemma.All of the known humanoid races in the Milky Way Galaxy mate in pairs Sarran biology, although humanoid in origin,…See More

Tory Richards left a comment for Mary Lynn Hansel"Watermellon Ranch? I've never heard of it. Is it a shelter for cats?"
"Seems that everyone of my story had one of those supposingly surporting actors."
Judith commented on Mary Lynn Hansel's blog post Hero in Waiting"So very true about the supporting actors and actresses in our books. Thanks for sharing the excerpt. Looks great!."
Mary Lynn Hansel posted a blog postHero in Waiting
In vaudvillethey called him the Second Banana, in Hollywood--the supporting actor, on Broadway--the understudy. Who is he? In romance he is the hero's best friend, or the guy he just met who helps him out of a tight spot, in reality -- this is the guy hanging out for a book of his own. When you write a novel it naturally flows that the hero(s) and the heroine are the stars of the show. Yet,…See More
Mary Lynn Hansel posted a blog postTigger Speaks!
One of the most interesting characters in The Sarran Plague is Tigger, Dr. Anya Forrester's orange and white striped tiger cat.People never notice the cat. The have conversations, they share secrets, they even speak treason in front of the cat. What would happen if the cat was sentient? No Earthen would believe he was and the Earthen would tell anyone who would listen that the cat was a pet, not a person. Yet, what if the cat were sentient and just chose not to speak. What if the cat were…See More

Many thanks for the link up, Mary. I’m looking at ways where we can help each other promote our material and ourselves. I suppose it begins with good communication. Did you have anything in mind in addition to this? I'm not that experienced in writing but I have a wealth of knowledge about people. This is the cover to my co-written book. You’d be welcome to post yours in my comments box or to the text facility on my page. All you have to do is ask :-)
