Romance 101 - what not to name a hero
Nov. 13th, 2007 08:30 pmQuinn. It seems that every romance I read or hear about these days has a hero called Quinn!
I'm not surprised it's a popular name - it's a nice, short, glamourous name (which featured in a song?). But it's a real pain in my neck because in order to buck the trend I've had to rename one of my heroes in 'Secrets'.
So now Captain The Honourable Augustus Quinn has become Captain the Honourable Augustus Craig, which is not quite as good. Still, at least he doesn't have to share it with quite so many people.
