    looking for an “easy” name

    Hi guys. The current book is out already. No deaf characters. But the novella I am working on right now that features a deaf character will probably be available in October or November 2008. It will be an anthology with a supernatural twist (i.e. vampires and shapeshifters and such). I’m...

    looking for an “easy” name

    And the winners are ... Chase and authentic. My kids fished your names out of a basket with everyone's name in it. So if you are interested, let me know and I'll mail you a copy of THE PROTECTOR, a gay romantic suspense novel. Thanks to everyone who participated. :ty:

    Snow in which states?

    No snow on O'ahu, Hawaii. But we have an active volcano on the Big Island that's spewing ash and bubbling lava right now.

    Would you rather....

    I'll take the cruise ship. You can sleep and walk and eat and have some fun. I hate flying, because it's so uncomfortable. And airports are such a hassle now. Would you rather go through school again (and be a teenager) or learn a new job (and be an adult)?

    looking for an “easy” name

    Okay, Bob is out. I still like Nic a lot. I overhear some mom on the playground yelling after her son. The poor kid's name was Copernicus. I was immediately intrigued. And the name shortens nicely to Nic. But I haven't made up my mind yet and names can change when editors get a book in...

    looking for an “easy” name

    Thanks, guys, for helping me out with this. As promised I am going to raffle away two copies of my book. Right now, all nine of you are in the pot: Buffalo, webexplorer, authentic, Anij, Chase, PowerON, Kaelei, and SkullChick. I’ll pick someone by the end of the week. I'm just waiting to...

    Would you rather....

    Snakes! I hate spiders and things that crawl. I have touched snakes before; I imagine they feel better against my skin than hairy spiders. Would you rather spend four months in one of those Antarctic science stations or on a Space station orbiting the moon? (It's up to you whether there are...

    looking for an “easy” name

    You guys had a few great suggestions. I'm still mulling things over. I really liked Tom, but my brother-in-law is a Tom and he would hate for me to use his name. I also liked Cam (Camden) and that's still in the running. I also like Eric and Matt. What about Nic? :ty:

    looking for an “easy” name

    Hi. I have a question. I’m working on a novella with a deaf character and I need to name his love interest. My deaf character is not very oral, so I’m looking for a male name that’s fairly easy to say for someone who doesn’t use his speech a lot. I haven’t decided yet whether my character...

    Facts About Deafness

    I like the idea behind your FAQ. It's obvious people keep asking the same questions. Your answers are insightful and to the point. They could probably be edited a bit for grammar, but I don’t think it’s embarrassing. You might want to add an unusual question or a funny anecdote or something...

    For Hearies Only

    Chase, that's awesome. I've been looking for books with deaf protagonists and haven't really found anything. I would love to read a deaf amateur detective. Keep looking for a sale, please. Good luck with that.

    For Hearies Only

    I came across a short story with a deaf character. There were only a few paragraphs, but I was immediately fascinated. I’d never come across a deaf character before. When I was asked to write a novella for a vampire anthology, I decided that I wanted to include a deaf character, for two...
