Robert Crais has written an essay about his characters, Elvis Cole and Joe Pike. Well, it's really about Joe Pike, but you can't have one without the other. Both Elvis and Joe are on my Fictional Boyfriend list. It is fascinating to me to hear how an author sees his own creation, how much history a character has that we don't even know about.
New Joe Pike novel coming January 2010. The only problem with Robert Crais is he does not write fast enough!

I've given you an award.
