Knowing your Secondary Characters

So I'm knee-deep in my revision of SUGAR ON SNOW right now.  I'm sitting on the sun porch with my coffee and a nice breeze from the lake, merrily checking off all the little revision jobs my editor asked me to consider in her editorial letter.  I've been moving right along, which is a good thing because the publication date for this book is likely being moved up to Fall 2010.  And I've been getting lots done this week and feeling good about the revision.  But I've just come to a screeching halt.
