An Amusing Bit About Character Names

[Brandon]

Sometimes, when I'm writing and I try to come up with a name for a character, my brain locks up. When I wrote The Card, I needed names for the three friends. I borrowed the protagonist's name from friend and fellow author J. Scott Sharp. For his friends' names, I took inspiration from the singer and guitarist of Queen, Freddie Mercury and Brian May. :-D

That is seriously awesome. I love me some Queen.

Oh yeah, Queen rocks! I think Jason got a kick out of it too.
