All in the name of research, of course! Whenever I go from Marshall to Hot Springs I am always struck by the difference in temperature and climate, in general. It feels as though it should be cooler in Hot Springs (the drive seems like you are climbing) yet it's humid and warm and the air feels stagnant. I guess because it's down in the bowl of the valley. I'm happy that you are enjoying the journey of this book - that's the real fun!

(Back in college when I was reading Russian novels and similarly dense works, I would make my own ingoing list inside the front cover of the book.)<br /><br />But I may chat with my editor about adding something like that. It isn't much done these days but I agree, it would be massively helpful to the reader.<br /><br />Oh dear, Pat, I'm sorry.

It must feel truly satisfying!<br /><br />I once read a book which included a compendium with a sort of CV of each character and how they were related or interconnected. I found it very helpful. Unfortunately I have forgotten which book that was and don't even remember what it was about. It must have been part of a series, I suppose. It stayed in my memory for that brilliant idea of making it easy for the reader to get acquainted with all the characters.Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.com
