How I'm like Fabio

Have I ever mentioned that I'm a character in a historic romance novel? Well, I don't mean that in a Matrix sort of way. I mean that a romance author used my name for a character in one of her novels.

While in St. Louis, we had the romance author Bobbi Smith in the studio for an interview. During the visit, she said that she would use our names in her next novel.

Go out and grab a copy of Eden by Bobbi Smith.



Turn to page 254...

It was then that he saw the small group of Union soldiers coming his way. He tensed and pretended to ignore them.

"Adrian Forrester?" the officer leading the group asked as they stopped before him.

"Yes, I'm Adrian Forrester."

"I'm Captain Cory Berry, and I need you to come with us, please." His tone was cordial, but his hand resting on his sidearm left no doubt that he was serious.


My character didn't get to do any bodice ripping, though. *sigh*

How about that! Congrats, yo're famous! By the way, my first guess was that you were like Fabio because you had great pecs and a 6-pack. Not that that isn't the case...

Yeah, I've got a six pack of water balloons where most men would have abs.

you were going to shoot that guy!

Yes, I shot him good with my "pistol."

I said I didn't do any bodice ripping in the book, I didn't say my character didn't have a leather encounter with Adrian Forrester.

It would make the book a bit more interesting that way.

Heh, so it's not quite in a "Stranger than Fiction" way either, huh? Unless you'd noticed you knew certain details of the book before you read it...?
