We just get closets over here. Also, you already have such a richness to your character studies. I love to read them. <br /><br />Vijaya, it's funny, isn't it? Even when not "mystery genre," I think mystery is what keeps a good novel moving forward. I know I always have a hard time putting down the books with that pull to them.Faith Prayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09711135740295281493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4913717431702479722.post-27351594672069615982012-01-18T17:58:27.766-08:002012-01-18T17:58:27.766-08:00I didn't realize until I wrote this (my third)...I didn't realize until I wrote this (my third) novel that I always have an underlying mystery/secret. I never thought of myself as a mystery writer, but each of my novels has it.Vijayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876606729146077830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4913717431702479722.post-75843378051241927502012-01-18T11:07:40.666-08:002012-01-18T11:07:40.666-08:00I love your posts.

I used to ...I love your posts. They are inspiring. <br />I used to climb into my wardrobe and test the wall sure one day i'd get through to Narnia, always thought it might've worked if we had fur coats instead of anoraks:) I love the idea of secret rooms, doors, gardens...portals, doors into other worlds, the past, the future. <br />In my writing I was advised once to always write as if there is a secret, even if you dont know what it is:)<br />Will use those character questions ... who knows what will come out:)Words A Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04423263654771820182noreply@blogger.com
