Do you ever write a particular character you have trouble moving on from, like they get stuck in your head even though you're done with their story, and if so, what do you do with that?
Sandra Brown
When I was writing romances for series like Desire, Loveswept, etc. I carried over several characters when I felt they deserved a story of their own. I wrote two sequential historical romances, Sunset Embrace and Another Dawn. And the Texas!Trilogy features members of the Tyler family. The only character I carried over from one suspense novel to another is Dodge Hadley, a cynical, burned out, private investigator. He first appeared in Smash Cut. For all his cynicism, I liked him and wanted to know his history. Tough Customer reveals the event, and woman, that made him the way he is and weaves them into a present-day story.

Hi, Do you ever agree to Skype or Facetime with Book Clubs? We'd love to have you join us when we read your new book Unless you happen to be in Salt Lake City. LOL. Please let me know, thanks. PS I met you in 2011 at a writing conference in Dallas/Fort Worth. You were the Keynote speaker. However, I was already a fan. Mary
