Up and Coming

I'm really excited for this coming week. One area of high conflict in the hospital surrounds the death of loved ones. At times, the hospital may approach a family and tell them their loved one is brain dead and encourage the family to withdraw life support.

But, how is brain death determined?

That is my focus all this week. Brain Death Criteria. A must know area for any novelist writing this type of scene.

In the meantime-- enjoy the trailor for Proof. Also available, the first five chapters at my website.



Have a great week!!

    Jordyn. Great blog!
    The last third of my story involves a major brain injury and the resulting damages. This part is a true story so I wrote it as how things actually happened, but I still asked a few med friends to check on the medical aspects. The constraint was that I had to be very brief as not to exceed the word limit (had to focus on the story instead of the medical explanation).

    Good luck with your book, and I'll stick around :)

      Bette,

      Of course I'm not dissapointed to hear that the trailor is influencing you to buy the book! But-- you may win so hold out a few days...

    Love your blog and great posts. What If is always a mystery/suspense question and you have posed some great what if's.
