Amazing to read such a fresh story, interesting jobs.. a double love story (Paz and Josie are super cute), and a wild trajectory for Kesa and Shannon...

Random Trivial Things

  • Trivia – Substitute for Love’s Fascinating Math
    No math whiz, Karin spent a long time studying the milestones of mathematics to create a realistic passion for Holly Markham in Substitute for Love. Her favorite fascinating fact was how measuring sound waves electronically replaced the whack of an engineer's hammer against a train wheel to test for metal fatigue. File that under "Cool stuff writers hope some day will help them win Jeopardy!"
