It seems as though you've put so much effort in to the sowing of the seed that a decent harvest is inevitable. Becky told me of your book so i thought id find it. We got in to quite a convosation, be it one sided however. The familiar rambles of hubris, flawed heros and grandfather Aristotle. From reading this blog i can see exactly what she was talking of; holes and falling. I've now came to the conclusion that this has to be so, its human and its normal. A book without this would be far to surreal and even Sci-Fi, and i dont read Sci-Fi :) Any way good luck, hopefully speak soon blessed be Im sure your book will do wonderfully well.

Thanks, Andrew

Narrative device sounds much better than ‘my characters are rude bunch’ – I have enjoyed blogging, actually.

Using your characters' responses to a story is an ingenious device to bring out their attitudes and prejudices. Andrew Hi Gisela
I’ve been enjoying your blog and its mix of family history, poetry, mythology, comments on place, and also your characters – who I’m looking forward to hating and loving! Using your characters’ responses to a story is an ingenious device to bring out their attitudes and prejudices.

They were very independent creature. And if I am totally honest, I probably wouldn't want them any other way! Thanks for your patient reading! Dear Caroline

Whereby the writer does not have full control over their lifes but has to follow what the personality of the character would do in a given situation. I never thought about this before. Interesting!
