I too am impressed by strong character in a person be it in a book or real life. I also am glad to see that there are others who feel like we all have a "core" of strength to draw on when we need it. Have always thought that people who can live through every bad thing that life throws at them and smile at the end of the day are quiet heroes and far more worthy to emulate than those of us who whine and go through life blaming others for all their bad choices and think only they are going through anything that hurts. I know many more of these people than the other type. I wish I knew more "quiet heroes". Okay enough soap box, I just want to say that love both the characters you have created in your books in Dante Valentine and Jill Kismet. I also can understand your statement in saying you do not always like your characters but liking them has nothing to do with writing their point of view in a book. The books are great and although have all the Jill Kismet series have yet to buy more than a few of the Saint City's with Dante, not sure why only she is truly harder to read about.... Love your blog posts and had so much fun at the BBB chat reading all the comments and your replies to all of us. Jackie B Central Texas Deep thoughts indeed, and well thought out ones too.
