Now, that's cool. I would need help, too, choosing footwear for a six-foot five transvestite, though I might just ask Donna's advice.<br />

The Millions is new to me, Margot. Holy moly, more reason to whip out the credit card.<br />

I just discovered Random House's <a href="http://www.randomhouse.biz/webservices/insight/widget/userguide">Book Widgets</a>. I'd heard of them, but didn't realize you could actually embed a bit of java code in your website and make books full-text browsable! Better than…

I just discovered a new site: Street Peeper. Snapshots of people on the street in various American cities. Their clothing and accessories are described. I'm not real knowledgeable about female clothing, so this helps to dress my characters. Just put a six-foot five transvestite in "ballet flats" thanks to the site. :)

Neat! I use SYKM for checking series, but never thought of checking against it for character names. The name site I often use is from the <a href="http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/">US Social Security Administration</a> because you can see popular names by year of birth and also by state. Don't know if there's a Canadian equivalent.

<a href="http://www.stopyourekillingme.com/">STOP,</a> You're Killing Me is one I check, mainly to make sure names aren't overused. You can't be absolutely certain nobody else is using a surname, but for my protagonists I like to check.<br />
<br />
I also refer to a few Baby Names sites (one of which keeps historical information so that you can pick appropriate names depending on the age of the characters).<br />
<br />
There are a few blogs I'm pretty addicted to. I guess I'd have to say Crimespot is very helpful in…
