Characters need their own voice
But make sure the editor remembers, without you, these characters would not have a voice at all.

Like young cops - too much respect for the rulebook, without looking at the meaning of the content.

I had to take a lot of the Australian coloquialism from "Tom Ugly" so people could understand it but as you know I kept some ther to keep the authentic flavour...give my story some reality juice.

Re: Pat,
I will be fine, as long as the editor listens to me, and respects that it is my story.
