I especially love the Michael Weston/Jesse reference, but you already knew I would, didn't you?<br /><br />I don't add a lot of betrayal to my novels, and you've inspired me! Especially with one particular relationship...Now I've got to rewrite Earth's Gate one more time. Dangit. :)Melanie Crousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10353025724182677932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561827139818452407.post-55694135272022975872012-03-14T19:45:27.894-07:002012-03-14T19:45:27.894-07:00Great post!!

There is nothing like a little betrayal to add some drama, and the points of how to handle it responsibly are pure gold.<br /><br />I think it is the glossing over of the betrayal or unseemly behavior in some books is the real problem. Honestly, I don't know why a writer wouldn't want to show the consequences of the those actions. It's just more conflict and tension and all that good stuff that you want in books but not in real life. <br /><br />I'm glad you didn't give up on your novel cause I want to read it. Hurry up and get that book published, so I can hunt you down to get you to sign my copy. :)MaryAnn Popehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08618345950149423623noreply@blogger.com
