Please join me in welcoming author Gabrille Bisset today! She’s here to give us the goods on the heroes she’s written, and fell in love with. Below is a blurb from Blood Avenged, first in her new series The Sons Of Navarus. This month, my review of Blood Avenged will go up on March  21 at GraveTells.com. Stop by and check it out. I can tell you now, you really want to read this book!   Buy Blood Avenged (Sons of Navarus) by Gabrielle Bisset at Amazon I’ve written a number of characters who stay with me more than others.  My one villain turned hero, Amon Kalins, will forever be my first author-character love.  I fell in love with him as soon as he hit the page (I hand write everything, so the idea literally came out on a piece of paper).  And as soon as he entered the story, he threatened to take up all the air in … Continue reading →

A few weeks ago, in A Hero To Die For, I talked about the things that go into good Heroes. While I focused on the Romance, or Paranormal Romance, novel Hero, many of those characteristics will fit the protagonist for any genre. I’d intended to talk about the Heroine the following week, but ended up with Who IS This? Making Minor Characters Useful instead. Then life intervened and I’m just now getting back to the series.
