Many writers (and this isn't to say it's a bad thing necessarily) leave out or skirt around complicated topics people disagree on.<br /><br />Now I want to read your book! :)<br /><br /><br />The Golden Eagle<br /><a href="http://thegoldeneaglesblog.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Eagle's Aerial Perspective</a>Golden Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08721520451194318436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5143063627221963599.post-66432735529529742052012-04-20T06:08:50.424-07:002012-04-20T06:08:50.424-07:00Wow.

Fantastic questions--well done Yvonne for tackling them! Just wanted to add that Black River is genre busting--at times a romance, a thriller, a mystery, a family saga. I fell in love with the characters and the world they inhabit, while at the same time pulling my hair out for the shit that goes down.

It’s not about wearing the flag backwards on your sleeve. It’s about flying the flag on a pole and taking it down at night. It’s about welcoming strangers."Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5143063627221963599.post-26392181195129016952012-04-18T18:31:34.294-07:002012-04-18T18:31:34.294-07:00You asked some tough questions, Ethan!

In laboring over the answers, I discovered something about myself and my novel; why it is important to me and what drove me to write it in the first place. I hope others enjoy the interview as much as I enjoyed answering your questions.<br /> <br />I will also take this opportunity to thank you for your thorough analysis of my manuscript and the insightful comments you gave me. You are an amazing new talent and I would highly recommend your services to any writer in need of a little editing help.Yvonne Osbornehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18212188414972694795noreply@blogger.com
