CASTING CALL: Give me your name! I’m the worst when it comes to creating characters names and I need names for the follow-up to Did Not Finish, the second in the Aidy Westlake mystery which’ll be out in 2012. I have a number of positions open from police officers to bad guys and everything in between. If you’d like to be one of the supporting cast, please leave your name. I can’t guarantee I’ll use your name, but if your name fits one of the characters in the book, I’ll use it. John and Jane Smiths need not apply.

Hi all,
Simon’s requested that I post the following message on his behalf, since he obviously can’t do it himself and he doesn’t wish to seem unresponsive. 🙂
Hi everyone,
Blogger won’t let me leave a reply on my own blog at the moment–go figure. I’m jotting names down and I’ll let everyone know whose name gets used. Thanks.
