Goodreads asked Joyce Wheeler:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Joyce Wheeler I'm in control of the story. If I don't like someone, I can (nicely) get rid of them, or put them in their place, or, in some instances, make them likable. Which is exactly what happened in My Lady. Dexter DeLange was supposed to be deplorable and have only a brief and ugly part of the book. The rascal became so likable that I really felt bad when......oh well, read My Lady and see what happens to the handsome Dexter DeLange.
