Hi, Barbara,
I see we are in for a new treat. The questions you posted are great - but I can't help but wonder if it wouldn't be better for the reader to discover the major plot points?
To me, that is half the fun in starting a new book - can I see where the thing is going? Can I ascertain who the main players are? AND, can I determine what the writer wants me to learn?
Looking forward to the new book,
~patty~

Comment from Nina Dorman
Hi there,
I think this is a very good book idea with a lot of tension and conflict just from these notes. It'd be interesting to see how much college or official training McKenzie has and whether this affects her work. (Was she ready to take over the business on her own? Will there be someone or something that helps her improve quickly? I.E. a journal, friend, book, or love interest) I'm very interested to read how you present the characters, tone, and settings. Best of luck with your book!

Comment from Cole King
Seems like an enjoyable setting and characters. I like the choice to have Mac own dogs since she has trust issues. Dogs are extremely loyal so it would seem she does want companionship, but only from those she knows will not betray her. I am wondering if the dog breeds were picked for their utility? Also, maybe add to the background information something about a threat, or a note, or some kind of sign that the same killer that killed her parents is after Mac. Overall, seems really good.

Hey Barbara, I look forward to reading this story. Sorry about your illness and hope you feel better. Only one minor nit. In your notes for Mac, you said: She will over compensate to hide those issues. Overcompensate is one word.

This looks like an interesting book to read. I look forward to reading the chapters. It seems when someone has a murder affect them they become a cop or PI. Very well done.
