I don't like the name Mark.
I mean, it's fine for a real person, but I don't like it for a fictional person. Any suggestions? New Orleans. ADA. Married (unhappily). Boyish charm. Any suggestions?

On Writing a Bad Novel
Madame, all stories, if continued far enough, end in death, and he is no true-story teller who would keep that from you. Ernest Hemingway

What do you think, busy lady?

I've decided on Anthony Perron. Anthony from the main character of Sartre's Nausea and Perron from the character based on Camus in deBeauvoir's The Mandarins. I want to really embrace the existential dilemma here. (That, ultimately, frees me up to have a novel that does nothing but rambles aimlessly in pontification.)
Ooooh aren't we a literary name-dropper...
: )
I love the way you think, my dear.
Absolutely. I wear the badge of the nerd proudly.
