As to the Spanish, I'm having a Spanish-speaking friend go over it with me to set all that right--I'm not even sure how to make some of those symbols in my fonts, but I'll indicate it in the fonts or something. Thanks for the input! <br /><br />P.S. And yes, it was HARD to write from an unstructured person's POV. That's so not me. :-) (She probably drifts toward structured toward the end.)Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15745389922246602752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498449.post-39738496870638442132012-05-28T15:10:15.219-04:002012-05-28T15:10:15.219-04:00I'm too distracted to give this a good, though...I'm too distracted to give this a good, thoughtful read right this second, but I can tell you that it's interesting to be getting the story from the kind of irresponsible person's point of view, because in some of your past novels with a conflict between a structured and unstructured person, I'd say the p.o.v. leans slightly more towards focusing on the structured person learning to be patient with unstructured people or learning to become less rigid e.g. Payton McGruder from The Note, Ginger from FAoI, Emma Rose Howard from The Debt. <br />Also, I'm not sure if you're going to bother with accents, but since you are using the upside-down question mark anyway, just in case you need it, in the question to Claude, it should be accented like "Cómo estás". Love the pink flip-flops, too! I am really looking forward to reading this when it's all said and done! :) <br />KatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498449.post-28086364981448985422012-05-27T18:37:31.716-04:002012-05-27T18:37:31.716-04:00Curious customer in that second chapter! : ) May...Curious customer in that second chapter! : ) Maybe a 'blessing' in that first chapter will lessen the 'stress'--a found 4 leaf clover, a ray of sunshine, a moment of grace.

Felt exhausted just reading. But if it gets toned down a little I think the story line would work. I'm already thinking she'll somehow get the job and that could reveal some interesting plot developments. Maybe there needs to be a "calmer" chapter between the rush of getting ready for the interview and the "hoopla" of the store? But I always love your stories, so know you'll come up with another great book!Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14651925397656495577noreply@blogger.com
