Characters answering surveys: Maureen McGrail.


Have you ever gotten an internet survey?  It has strange questions like your favorite foods, and flavors, that sort of thing.



Ever wondered what would happen if you had a novel character answer one of those?



I decided to have a little fun this week, so I decided to fill one of them out .... as my character Maureen McGrail -- Irish Interpol Agent, and registered lethal weapon.  I haven't mentioned her in a while, so she's due.
