There are characters who stay with you long after you have finished reading about them in their debut novel. Clem is one such character. She goes by several aliases in the course of this adventure, but you never lose sight of her. There is something about her that makes her unique, and I won’t reveal what it is, but there is more than that. She is real. I don’t say that about too many characters. It is my desire and professional goal to create such characters, as you probably have realized from my posts. I believe the goal of all of us who write is to go beyond memorable. Clem is someone I want to meet and talk to. That’s beyond memorable.

Oh Bill, you’ve made me tear up! Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback. There’s a whole lot of me in Clem so the fact that the character resonated so well means the world! I still think of Sylvie myself 😇
