Seems like a long ways off, I know, but it's already the middle of February. (Unbelievable!)

I have five siblings myself, so I've always tried searching out characters whose families I could identify with (Sharon Creech's "Absolutely Normal Chaos" being the winner, thus far). <br /><br />So, though Dot's not present as often as I would like, I've always been very glad for her character. Most of my friends have (at most) three siblings, so know there is someone, albeit fictional, who has an understanding is something I appreciate ... even though I'm in my early 20s now (I did start reading these books during middle school though. :]).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3004974476643738026.post-89968686180727724912011-02-09T20:13:23.910-08:002011-02-09T20:13:23.910-08:00I cannot wait to see/read about Dot again!

I know what you mean about keeping the characters cut back to save the dialogue. I've run into that problem with a story that has nine main characters...silly, but true. Anyway, the Sinter Klaus (I probably spelt that wrong) sounds amazing. Happy writing!

But I am glad you are already preparing yourself for them!<br /><br />I love that you insert these tidbits from your life. For me it adds a whole new dimension to the story that somehow makes me feel closer to home! <br /><br />I didn't comment on last week's post about you and Mark, but thank you for writing it! Today is my seventh anniversary and marrying D is still the best thing I have ever done! Unwavering support is a truly amazing thing and should be recognized more!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17224350290704387356noreply@blogger.com
