That's half the fun. <br /><br />Great job, both of you. I read 'The Space he Filled' and enjoyed it throughly. Tom is great. His last name is overly-complicated (which speaks to bit of pretension, IMHO). ;) That's my only gripe. (Hell of a name for a reformed stutterer).JD Maderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13058074115809620653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4185973150411109117.post-91323805719021521832011-09-12T12:40:30.828-07:002011-09-12T12:40:30.828-07:00Excellent, Kat and Ton.

"To illuminate readers about the human condition" is what all good novelists aspire to do... and they do it anyway, because it's hard to escape if one is writing honestly, about real people.
