I once found a website that generated suggestions for a Romantic hero’s scent using two nouns and based on his name. Richard and Lydia are the ones we see most but all the usual players are there.

While we’re on the subject of minor characters, if this were the Oscars, who would get Best Supporting Actor and Actress? The reader will be thankful for that, I think. We don’t see much of Matlock and Lady Catherine. In DF, the Fitzwilliams were loveable in spite of their faults. What are they up to in Sketching Character? That aside, the Fitzwilliam family is pretty accepting of Elizabeth in the book. One of my favorite jokes in Dearest Friends is about a family prevalence for an “inner Fitzwilliam” trait of sexual awareness and appetite. We have supporting characters, but pretty much all the action centers around D&E. There are some sweet and funny moments, but overall, SC is more serious. Sketching Character is far more angsty than Dearest Friends. Thank you, Rose! I always love to hear that, especially from another author. How would you describe Sketching Character? More or less angst for our couple than your first release? I love Dearest Friends, it’s one of my go to comfort reads. Grab your coffee or tea and settle in for this interview. Now, let us attempt to sketch our author’s character. When the truth behind her deception is uncovered, will Darcy shun her as Elizabeth fears, or will his actions prove that he is the very best of men? Her doubts, along with the well-placed words of another, threaten to destroy the peace she finds in Darcy’s company and she wonders if she has again failed to correctly sketch his character. Their daily encounters in the woods surrounding Rosings soothes Elizabeth’s weathered conscience and she soon falls in love. Darcy on her journey and his gentlemanly behavior confuses, yet comforts her. She carries a secret that would ruin her family if exposed and she must deceive the ones closest to her to conceal the truth. What if a tragic event involving a beloved sister shatters Elizabeth Bennet‘s confidence in her ability to accurately judge a person’s character? When she leaves Longbourn for Kent, Elizabeth’s heart is full of worry for those she left behind. Look for it on Amazon on release day September 28th and paperback on other retailers soon afterwards!

I’m really looking forward to the release of her next novel, Sketching Character. I’m so excited to have Pamela Lynne here today! I first got to know her on a JAFF forum a few years ago and have absolutely loved her first published work, Dearest Friends.
