A Road Trip with Dad and My Novel Characters. Have You Taken Your Characters Out, Recently?

Yes, I am taking the characters of my novel The Harvest out on a weekend trip.  It is Father's Day Weekend, but any time in a hotel writing and revising, while the kids are swimming, is gold.  You may think spending a weekend with your characters or at least having a long cocktail with them is excessive, but when you have been spending years with them, and you need to get to know them better, there's nothing like a weekend road trip.  Maybe, I'll just validate what I already knew about them, and that is fine. 

Have you taken your characters out on a date recently?  They probably miss you or could surprise you!

On the author front, you may have noticed I added a new section to my page:  Books.  I am posting links to the forums where my book are going on sale like Smashwords and Amazon.  (This morning I got invited to post to a new forum.  I will have to check it out.)  Let me tell you what a learning curve that was, a joyful one.  For now, I am running a promo through my Facebook author page or comments below.  The first five people to buy my short will get a signed copy of The Long Walk.  You can email me details.  I also am selling the Kindle version for a dollar if you buy the print version. 

I mean come on?  What else can you get for such a great deal these days that is so awesome?

Well, I am off to pack.  Oh, I should pack for my characters too!  It's a metaphor.  I don't have any guns or "shit suits",  environmental protection suits from my novel.  That would just be weird.

Take your characters out and immerse yourself in them.  Buy my book.  #Resist
