“Tony, do you think the family will ever get over it—the gay thing?” I asked[...]
Tony took a sip of his coffee, then said. “You know that the family doesn’t approve of me, but that’s no great loss. Hell, their disapproval is as steady and consistent as love. It’s something I’ve always been able to count on.”
Now how was I going to take this conversation seriously when the dude was named Tiger? How, I ask you?

Wait. Tiger is a person? 😲 I was thinking it was a pet's name. I don't know if I can handle this.

Is this further than you got on your first try?

Way further. I only made it to 3% last time. Changing the name was a huge help.
Funny how a thing like that can make such a difference. I plan to do the same with a book whose MC is named "Lucky," because that name is a dealbreaker for me. Maybe Luke would work instead? Or Chuck? Or maybe every MC with an unacceptable name should just be renamed Tony. :)
You can't go wrong with Tony. 😂
Now there's a character named Jeep. WTH, Jay Quinn? 😁
I guess he likes nicknames. Sneaky of him to spring it on you so late in the book, though. :)
He was mentioned in passing earlier but I didn't think I'd have to spend time with him. 😂
You can take Frank, Mymymble.
