She's part of the tradition of fearsome female entities. H. Rider Haggard's SHE, Jack Ketchum's SHE WAKES, and my own MARLA are some other instances of this. But the antagonist in HOUSE OF SKIN is enduring, single-minded, and unstoppable, which is why I love her character so much. :-)

Jonathan Janz:
How much of a story do you map out before beginning to write a novel? Do you do extensive outlining and adhere rigidly to it, with all the major plot points calculated in advance? Also, how many drafts does a novel of yours typically take before you're satisfied, and do the rewrites usually consist of substantial structural changes, or are they more along the lines of polishing? Thanks!
