What’s in a Name?

Posted on by

Visit me over at Not Your Usual Suspects today where I have a Guest Author Spot, talking about how I choose names for characters in my books – and how book titles can take on a life of their own!

Should my new (re)release FREEMAN have been called “Romance Blossoms Between Two Very Different Men While Foiling Dastardly Plots” – and why wasn’t it?

What do you think about names? Do you like seeing unusual ones? Readers, do they turn you on or off in a book? 😉

About clarelondon

Clare London took her pen name from the city where she lives, loves, and writes. A lone, brave female in a frenetic, testosterone-fuelled family home, she juggles her writing with her other day job as an accountant. She’s written in many genres and across many settings, with award-winning novels and short stories published both online and in print. She says she likes variety in her writing while friends say she’s just fickle, but as long as both theories spawn good fiction, she’s happy. Most of her work features male/male romance and drama with a healthy serving of physical passion, as she enjoys both reading and writing about strong, sympathetic, and sexy characters. Clare currently has several novels sulking at that tricky chapter three stage and plenty of other projects in mind... she just has to find out where she left them in that frenetic, testosterone-fuelled family home.
