I was reading 'Reinventing Fabulous' a three friends blog by Jenny Crusie, Lani Diane Rich and Anne Stuart (Krissie) which is funny and irreverent and all about female friendship. Here's the link:

It got me thinking about a friend who passed away last year and the different ways of missing people. And the ones that you laugh with hit the top of my list. A shared sense of humour is the best glue in any relationship and I love books where the hero and heroine - no matter what - have the same sly humour, the ability to glance at each other and share a private joke.
Some books that do that really well are: Georgette Heyer's "Venetia" and Susan Elizabeth Phillips "Nobody's Baby But Mine" and "Heaven, Texas." I do love a man with a sense of humor, preferably as dry as James Bond's martini.
If you have books that fit that criteria, I'd love to hear about them.
As for the book I'm writing, "His Goodbye Girl" - little humour yet but it's coming...oh yes, it's coming. One of the best things about being a writer is that unlike real life you get do-overs until the joke works. Boom Boom.
