A Little Characterization, Anyone?

Click on over to Book'd Out at http://bookdout.wordpress.com/2011/04/19/giveaway-guest-post-yvonne-navarro-author-of-dark-redemption-series/ for a book giveaway, a review of HIGHBORN, and a guest blog about characterization.  This one goes a bit deeper into the parts of herself that a novelist tucks into her writing, willingly or unwillingly.  Check it out!

Method Writing...

Discussed at the International Thriller Writers/THE BIG THRILL roundtable by yours truly, Yvonne! Technically the topic is "How do you separate yourself from the characters you write?" http://tinyurl.com/4rbhrxm 

 Come on over and weigh in.  Comments are always appreciated!

FANTASTIC REVIEW OF HIGHBORN!

Where?  Right HERE, at Hellnotes.

Most startling quote: 

"Author Yvonne Navarro leaps onto a popular theme, and rides it like a seasoned jockey on a thoroughbred."

And here I've always been intimidated by horses!
