		<description>So very interesting, Bonnie!  And I can&#039;t wait to read your Blaze!  I love learning about the interconnections, so is the other story one that&#039;s out, too?  Reformed bad girl?  Those make really cool heroines!</description>

		<description>The easiest characters for me to write are the ones who walk full blown onto the stage of my mind. Morgan was one of those. I had a hero do that once and he kickstarted my career again...in a way, I knew he was capable of that just by watching him move. 

He had the same kind of confidence that Morgan has. Like stage presence I suppose.

Thanks, Sam, I always love your comments,

		<description>This is such a hard question! LOL I could answer more easily I think where my heroes come from, but I think it&#039;s harder to separate out heroines for me.  They pop up in my imagination, and I feel like they are all some part of me, even the ones that are very different from me... if that makes any sense. Sometimes I may think of them physically as a celebrity of some sort, or borrow a trait or experience from a friend or from life, but largely my heroines are very organic, I think... I just sort of imagine them, and they grow.

And yes, the secondary character thing... have had that happen. Love it. :)

Morgan sounds like a handful... but I love characters like that, and I think stories that start with that grounding in character are usually the best -- and she does sound like a Blaze babe, for sure. :)

		<description>Morgan&#039;s still very much in-yer-face, which is one of the many things I like about her. She may very well say some of the things we&#039;d love to say, but don&#039;t. (H) 

Thanks!</description>
