Now that I reflect upon it, mine drink beer, Diet Coke, and coffee. But only in one book. I can't recall anybody drinking in the other two books I've written. Oh, wait, one character and her "associates" do drink beer as well as Jack and Coke. Nobody else does. In the fourth book, currently stalled midway, some drink but most don't. Sounds like there's a drought in most cases. Hmm. Now that I reflect upon it, mine drink beer, Diet Coke, and coffee. But only in one book.

I think I only have coffee drinking in one of my mss. But my characters eat *a lot*. Steaks, pot roast, prime rib... Hmm. I think my characters are definitely carnivores. And now I'm hungry. LOL!

On the other hand, that is probably why having someone read an author's completed manuscript is such a helpful thing. You get a fresh eye to look over the story and wording. This made me laugh!
