I ran across and interesting idea the other day. It made me ponder about the essence of my future books. I want to know what you all think about it. Basically it surrounds one question...
Is there one thing you will ALWAYS include in your novel(s)?
This is what I'd like to know. Let me know what your answer is in the comments!

Side-note: I found this shirt design earlier and am dying (almost literally) to get my hands on one. Perfect, no?
Go here to get your hands on a t-shirt.

One of my friends also has chocolate mentioned in hers. And her mc's always seemed to be obsessed with the stuff for one scene.
Because I'm physically active, my mc are always fit (even though I wasn't as a teen). There's always a scene or two (though usually more) that involves their activity of choice. With the book I'm querying and my current wip, the activity was an important part of the plot. ;)
This is a really interesting question! Uhm hmm. I'm not sure I have an answer right now. I don't think I have a common anything in all my books right now, but it would be fun to go back through and add something, as kind of an Easter Egg. Now I'm going to think about what I COULD include in all of them :)
There always seems to be a book in each of my novels. It's weird. It must be subconscious. =)
I never really thought of this. Besides a cute boy, there's not really a common thing in my WiPs.
Hmmmm . . . good question. I'll have to think about that. Love the t-shirt. :-)
I've never really thought about that - good question. There is a secret of some sort in each of my books, but I'll have to think if there are any other things that are alike.
What a fun idea! It makes me think of the Little Critter books and how there is always a mouse and/or spider in each picture. Now I'm going to think of something!

I just stumbled upon your blog and I have to say its awesome!
When I write, the main character is usually always writing something or another. Never really realized it till now.
I love the idea of an author leaving an 'easter egg' as Amalia called it, a little wink and a nod to loyal readers - a signature of sorts. Painters, film makers, and other artists do it, and I bet authors do to, for those paying enough attention to catch it.
For me, I didn't do it on purpose, but everything I've ever written has a character named "Maggie" in it. Apparently, I really like that name.
I'm with Shannon: love the shirt, have to think about the question.
