Saturday Thread: Don't Waste A Name

If you’re looking for something new to read this weekend, have I got a book for you.

Hi friends.

I woke up this morning with no fresh sentences in my head. But I did have a new name of a character and I will take it.

He was a minor character thus far in the thirty thousand words I had written. He had a few good lines in chapter one that were both funny and moved the story along, and then he disappeared forever. I hadn’t even known I was thinking about him. I hadn’t realized that I needed to name him. I didn’t even think he was going to show up again at any point later in the book and yet the very act of naming him fleshed him out in a brand new way in my head. I saw his clothes, his hairstyle, I heard his speaking voice.

What was his name?
