    Very good to hear. I was tempted after this assignment to encourage everyone to stay with these characters and use the rest of the course to finish off a 40-page story about them. Unfortunately that doesn't work for the writers who will be joining us in July and early August, but I would very much like to see some of this great character work developed more.

    I pictured the 1930s/1940s, with the whiskey and the note blowing by the window. I asked my editor friend just now and she said she had pictured as contemporary.

    Yes, that will be a challenge. But I think he's in that "between a rock and hard place" spot that a lot of people could identify with, so as long as he doesn't appear to be an abusive scumbag or something repulsive, he should be a nicely flawed character to root for.
