		<description><![CDATA[Portland author Laini Taylor this week unveiled the title of the sequel to her wonderful fantasy novel, DAUGHTER OF SMOKE AND BONE. As a fan of Taylor’s writing, this is sanguine news for me. Remember, please, that “sanguine” means both “hopeful” and “bloody.” I think that pretty much sums up my emotions about her 2011 [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dana-haynes.com&amp;blog=6484825&amp;post=1563&amp;subd=danahaynes&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I currently am madly in love with “Justified” on the FX channel (although I admit I watch it on Netflix and thus am a full season behind).

		<description><![CDATA[The best film casting for a mystery – ever! – was Alec Guinness in the 1979 BBC mini-series adaption of John Le Carré’s “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.” I say “the best” because I had read the novel, “Tinker, Tailor,” first, and as always, I constructed a visual avatar in my head for the primary characters.

I wrote a scene for an upcoming novel that was action-oriented but which also obscured an important &#8220;reveal&#8221; to spring on the reader later in the book. The first draft was OK but no great shakes. The second draft was better but &#8230; dunno, still missing something. It wasn&#8217;t the characters.
