We don't want "too much" that they take over the story, but we need the right amount to make the story be all it can be for the reader, so it doesn't feel "cardboardy".<br /><br />I always enjoy your posts and this was no exception. Description of places is hard for me. I have to work to get it just right.<br /><br />CherylCheryl Piersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18116526340220274282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409887812566625284.post-12129377584575251962014-07-18T12:08:16.289-05:002014-07-18T12:08:16.289-05:00Excellent remarks on setting the scene and doing t...Excellent remarks on setting the scene and doing the research in order to know what actually happened during an earlier time at a particular place. <br /><br />My husband is not a reader, but I read to him on long trips while he is driving. Your Jericho Quinn series sounds like something he would enjoy. I’ll have to get a copy and have it on hand for our next venture. <br />Robyn Echolshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08017977874430481013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409887812566625284.post-3969388027026425382014-07-18T10:21:54.887-05:002014-07-18T10:21:54.887-05:00I have always thought the story becomes real when ...I have always thought the story becomes real when I 'see' the area. When I think about it, the setting has always been a part of what draws me to a story, along with the time. <br />Have a safe and profitable trip.

I agree that taking in the sights of this great planet (and smells, and tastes and sounds) is the writer's version of stumbling into an open bank vault.Vonn McKeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02271500340284234767noreply@blogger.com
