Good evening Ruta! Do you ever get super attached to characters and get sad when the book is at its end?

Hi Madison!
Oh my, yes. I get SO attached to the characters. They feel real to me. Since I write historical novels, in many cases the characters are loosely based on people I've interviewed, so they ARE real. When I finish a book the characters stay with me. That's why a character from "Between Shades of Gray" is in my novel "Salt to the Sea!" :)
Thanks again!

If I put my poems and books anywhere should it be copyright through post office or it all ready copyright online when you put it up? thanks for your help.
