Why this must be read:
I thought I’d end my month of driving the Cortina van with another great example of how it’s possible to write PWP and keep everyone beautifully in character.
Gene is a difficult character to capture in stories. Not only is there the matter of his voice, the extraordinary way he has of expressing himself but also a matter of his sense of humour. Ange is amongst the handful of writers in our fandom who nails him every time. Ahem... *g*
Excerpt: “Look. I'm too bloody old to play silly beggars. I'm pretty sure I don't look like the Milk Tray man, so don't expect me to come swinging through yer window with a box of chocolates hanging out me arse. But one of the things I can pride myself on is being honest with my team. So you need to listen carefully to me, Tyler.” He removed a cigarette packet from his pocket, took one out, threw the packet on the kitchen table. He lit up; Sam briefly considered remonstrating with Gene but could see from his demeanour this was not the time to lecture him on health issues.
