Comment from rama devi
Ignoring what he did became easier than arguing about it.
A great line.
This has a crisp pace, fine characterization and makes a fine start to a novel. What will she do when Blair is gone? Stay tuned for next chapter? Will you continue this one? ;)
one suggestion--
More and more(,) she realized Craig was right. Blair had to go.
Good writing, as usual, dear Bob.
Blessings and Love, rd

Comment from Live2Write
I definately think you should continue with this. You established an interesting character with a story that made me want to know more. I saw no SPAGS of other errors. Excellent writing.
Good luck in the contest!

Comment from Pen&Ink
Hello Bob,
Very good beginning to a novel. Leaves the reader wondering about all that came before these clandestine, frequently tawdry events. The narration is frank enought for a guy, yet appeals to a woman's psyche by leaving much to the imagination.
Good luck in the contest.

Comment from BethShelby
Bob, I love this start to a novel. It sound like a real thriller so I do hope you'll continue it. You have make a great start a developing the characters in so few line. I've probably missed some of your work because I've been dealing with computer virus which caused my hard drive to crash. It's good to be back on line.

Hi Bob,
Good start to the story, leaving one wondering where to from here? Divorce? Murder? Combination of both? Excellent premise, now to tell the story perhaps?

The best of luck in the contest. This is really a terrific start to a real novel. I hope you give a thought to really finishing it. I'd love to know how she goes about getting rid of her lying, cheating bastard of a husband. Murder maybe?

Bob:
Nicely done! Your cliffhanger sentence at the end was the masterstroke (will the she murder him, blackmail him, or divorce him in a messy public proceeding) - Leaves the reader wanting more - excellent.

Bob,
"The Plan" was a very well written horror piece for this contest "A Novel idea..." I especially enjoyed the eerie artwork you presented.
