I've been thinking. Yes, I know it's scary. Lol.
Seriously though, I've been working on my novel "The Early Years" (in the Lathal and Malan book series).
And I'd like to ask what you all think:
1. I don't know why I didn't think of this before lol but Malan's birthday is Sept. 17. Lathal has her accident in September. Would it be interesting to have Lathal's accident on Malan's birthday?
2. An element I have been kicking around:
To respond this one this may require some familarity with my character, Billy Markham, who is an actor and Malan's best friend.
I am thinking of finally having Billy marry Jena in this novel. (Jena is Billy's girlfriend, and they have been dating for at least six years.)
Some insight here: Billy's relationship with Jena is a secret from her parents. Jena's parents are incredibly rich sort. Jena has an Eyptian/Greek bloodline and her parents are well known art and antiquities dealers. Jena is not sure they'd approve of her being involved with an artist. Her parents want her to marry a lawyer or a son of a millionaire sort of guy.
I was thinking to make it interesting that Jena might be pregnant ... or not.
Am I crazy, or is this good stuff?
Please let me know what you think.
I appreciate it.
