Thanks, Judith! I’d never really thought of the story behind the cover story until Boo got in touch with me. It’s fun uncovering the layers within layers.

I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on A City of Broken Glass! It’s my favorite (don’t tell the other books).

Thanks, Jeff! Boo has some great Hannah-ish elements, doesn’t she?

An entire story behind the cover story. Fascinating. I’m never going to be able to look at a cover photo and not imagine that there is some separate life of its own quite separate from the book even while it represents the contents of that book also. A bit surreal, actually. I do love Game of Lies. Congrats on another great book, Rebecca.

Casting:

Mads Mikkelsen, a Danish actor, for Boris
as seen in After the Wedding, he has that chiseled look and
the right coloring
Clifton Collins, Jr., an American actor, for Lars
as seen in Sunshine Cleaning and Extract
he has those intense dark eyes and the smaller frame

Isn’t it frustrating when things don’t come out of your head absolutely perfect the first time? I cut swathes of stuff last week myself because no one outside of my skull understood them.

Best of luck! *hands a napkin*

So true!

After a hiatus caused by family illness, I’m back at the Mac, and a culling is overdue.
You know those bits you think you’ve explained well.. and no-one else understands? My novel has ‘em. Yep, they have to go..

Here’s to a New Start.. (wipes off latte mustache.. Ahem)
Thanks for the permission!

Cheers.

Thanks, Scott! They say that the villain drives the story,and it can only be as good as he/she is, so that’s definitely an important person to keep in mind during the writing process. Best of luck in 2012 to you too!

Dead right, Rebecca – if you don’t read, how can you write? As to the nature of evil, I think one needs to understand how the ‘bad’ guy’ thinks in a novel as well as (if not more than) the good guy/girl. If the reader understands the motivation behind an evil mind (however warped) it helps them identifiy with ALL the characters. All the best for 2012 and your writing (and reading!).

Chace Crawford is PERFECT! I need to watch more TV. Can he sing?

Nicholas Hoult is perfect too (how can that be?). Can he sing?

Thanks for the suggestions!
