#WritersCoffeeClub Feb 26:
Does your current WIP have an antagonist? Why or why not?

Of course. I write romantic suspense - there's gotta be a bad guy r the story doesn't work. Also, I've found if you don't have some sort of conflict to work against/around, the story is boring. I like external conflicts besides the characters being afraid to talk about their issues, so always some sort of bad guy. Current WIP is a #LGBTQIA #RomanticSuspsense
in a #SmallTownRomance setting.
