Did you know that I, too, am a member of WisRWA, even though I live on Washington's Olympic Peninsula? I finaled in the Fab Five in 2007, and my husband and I knew some people in Door County. Neither of us had ever been to Wisconsin. So we went. Had a great time. It's an outstanding RWA chapter.<BR/>Lynnette<BR/>EdieLynnette Baughmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16233315682673292517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-7845062828184899182009-02-28T21:27:00.000-05:002009-02-28T21:27:00.000-05:00the Heathcliff with a guitar would make a great st...<I>the Heathcliff with a guitar would make a great start to a blurb.</I><BR/><BR/>Sandy, that's brilliant!

I haven't watched the show, but I've heard from a CP that the only similarity is both heroines want to help dead people leave earth. There's enough difference so that it's not derivative, yet it shows there's a readership for Dead People. I hope.
