Character Encounters

I often wonder what it would be like if the main character from one of my novels met the main character from another. Let's see: Fran (from "Fran, The Second Time Around") is 14, feisty, and troubled. She's pretty self-involved--and who can blame her, as she struggles to recover from a devastating tragedy...and start her life over again.

Ell ("Ell," coming in June 2021) is in her 20s, an unconventional mermaid who is fiercely independent and very much alone. She's trying to blend in with humans, but she never really can. And she's being hunted by some pretty bizarre cults.

So, would Ell babysit for Fran? Probably not. Would Fran turn to Ell for advice? Hmm. Maybe. Would Ell reassure Fran that everything is going[to be OK? I wonder....
