Meet Sandi Shelton #1

I was introduced to:(website link) Sandi Shelton
by chance, when I won one of Angela Felstead's Adopt a Book Friday Novel Giveaway at her My Poetry and Prose Place Blog.
I became the proud winner of
'Kissing Games of the World'
Kissing Games of the World: A Novel

I loved this novel and immediately Googled the author's website.
Sandi very kindly agreed to take part in an interview, which I have decided to present as a series of three short blog posts, starting with this one. I am thrilled and honoured to present her answers here.
Today she talks about developing her characters in Kissing Games of the World:




Come back tomorrow to hear #2 more about Sandi's writing journey/process.

And to my blog readers I will ask:
Do you plan and research your novels in the same way as Sandi?
