He inspired my code name at work, which is Mindy Vin - most people think I'm saying Vihn (lol). <BR/><BR/>And I'm a Riddock Fan through and Through. Who did I lend my copies to? Who do I have to beat up for not returning them? <BR/><BR/>I usually find an actor that closely resembles some aspect of my character and then find a movie they played in and study their expressions, dialogue, quirks, etc. Thats how I use movies in my writing.<BR/><BR/>MindyMindy Blanchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10107389797979691315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2029022256494899254.post-43364640433900880432009-03-03T06:39:00.000-08:002009-03-03T06:39:00.000-08:00Thanks Gina!

Scenes that "do it" for me: The dialogue between Harry and Sally on New Year's Eve at the end of "When Harry Met Sally," the quick wit between Benedick and Beatrice in "Much Ado About Nothing," Quint talking about the shark attack on the men of the USS Indianapolis...<BR/>You get the idea.<BR/>Great topic, Judy!Gina Ardito aka Katherine Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02973801443194349928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2029022256494899254.post-48042390731010890972009-03-02T19:32:00.000-08:002009-03-02T19:32:00.000-08:00The Diesel has a lot of potential for juicy roles....The Diesel has a lot of potential for juicy roles.<BR/><BR/>While writing I tend to divide myself between romantic suspense like Romancing the Stone, RomCom like Practical Magic, and character-driven films like The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood.<BR/><BR/>I wonder if I can weave all those elements into a single book?Sandra Cormierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00231342310371529022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2029022256494899254.post-77094372882038648682009-03-02T15:31:00.000-08:002009-03-02T15:31:00.000-08:00I love that movie!!!
