If your protagonist and her love interest and/or antagonist are the meat and potatoes that go in a hearty stew, then your secondary characters are the ingredients that make it truly delish. Maybe they add a little subtle favor, or maybe they give it a fiery hot kick. Maybe they make your meal unforgettable - beef stew with molasses and raisins anyone?
Who could ever forget Shazzer from the Bridget Jones books? Or Becky Sharp from Vanity Fair? Or Grandma Mazur from the Stephanie Plum books?
Let's blog about secondary characters. Tell us what you love about the sidekicks in your book or a fabulous secondary character from another novel. Or both! Have fun with it.
If you'd like to participate, please be prepared to offer a prize to one lucky guest hopper. Apart from that, you can do whatever you want regarding the giveaway (have your guests answer a particular question, follow your blog or whatnot).
Everyone is welcome to participate - authors (both published and not-published-yet), bloggers and reviewers are welcome too. Anyone who loves books and has something to say about secondary characters, I'd love to have you!
Please let me know if you have any questions - feel free to post 'em below. I'll be sending out more detailed instructions once the sign up link is closed.
Hope to see you at the hop!
Love,

Awesome, and thanks for sharing. I will offer my book (The Fall of the Misanthrope) and its irritating character Ellen Semple. :)
