Some of my shorter ones lean toward the 30-something age. But I do have a release in January, Honey On White Bread, that is a coming of age story. It's set in 1945 so my heroine would be elderly now - does that count?

It's also why I started liking paranormal romance where the characters are ageless.<br />Thanks<br />DebThe Reading Frenzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908245479700999445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-16117580460174472082011-08-24T09:43:00.488-04:002011-08-24T09:43:00.488-04:00thanks, Calisa!thanks, Calisa!Brenda Whitesidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04162555468154752820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-68661018865554148712011-08-24T09:19:23.365-04:002011-08-24T09:19:23.365-04:00Love the quotes, Brenda!

I happen to think it's the other 10 percent that kept them together so long." That's probably romance - a huge ten percent.Brenda Whitesidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04162555468154752820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-66456619078918064762011-08-24T06:26:48.114-04:002011-08-24T06:26:48.114-04:00Brenda,
