One thing I love about writing stories, is that regardless of the similar plots there, everyone has their own take on life, story, theme, etc. So many incredible VOICES in Club Book Therapy. Rachel and I spent the morning collecting all the ideas, sifting them together and trying to incorporate as many as we could to develop story ideas that we could possibly write!

I love casting my hero and heroines – it’s part of the fun! I like to see their faces, pick out their names…that’s when they really start to come to life. So….go to VOICES, and let’s CAST our Heroine and Heroine! Add your Casting suggestions to the CASTING CALL discussion. Remember, our hero is an everyday kind of guy. And if you think you have the perfect heroine for him, then go ahead and submit your suggestion! You can pick from…well, anybody! (okay, probably someone fairly well-known. Don’t suggest your husband, unless he’s Brad Pitt or Johnny Depp. *g* ) We’ll be listing some of the favorites next week as we flesh out the rest of his bio! In the meantime, don’t forget to vote for our heroine! Every Voice […]
