Do your family members know that they are templates for your characters? If so, how do they feel about that?
Ed Ireland
Most of the time, they don't see themselves in my characters. My wife in particular will say "I'm not the type to rush into a conflict" or something along those lines and I'll remind her of when she's done exactly that. Most of the times, people don't see the very good in themselves. My son is amazingly strong in the face of adversity, but he doesn't see it.
So far none of them are threatening to slap a lawsuit on me. The ex might if she knew my villains were her.

Hi, Ed! Ska St. Julian here. Thanks again for your support during B2B. Afraid I have a big question (or two?), though, concerning a not-for-kids novel I want to pitch, and I thought you might be able to advise. I see you're on Twitter--can I contact you there? I live at @MysteryCatSleep, with the Kitten Underground gang. Thank you! (And looking forward to reading Crime Scene to the cats...)
