They both hate Peron, who knew?

I thought I would dedicate this blog to those Eureka Moments that occur when your neurons suddenly collide and open up a new understanding of the problem you are working on. This experience is what I most love about the creative process - whether in business or in the arts.

One of my favorite EM's came while writing Dead on Her Feet, in which an Argentine psychoanayst and an American paleontologist become friends. In developing their back stories, I discovered that each had reason to hate Peron. So now I know they'll eventually discover this and become fast friends. It was a woo-oo moment for me!

I will post when I think I have something useful to contribute, which may not be very often, and welcome your comments.
