Okay, I've been working on my WIP for some time now and I'm stuck. Can you help me go from here?
This is what I have so far:
"Jack Romano"
What next, any suggestions?

Er, I think you might have to come up with a little more than that. :)

Well I think the natural response is:
", you're hereby charged with lecherous conduct, the public display of female undergarments and abduction of countless lawn gnomes. How do you plead?"

Have him dive off a bridge just before a bomb explodes behind him.
Perhaps he's on the run from Shriners.

Hmm, this could make for a best-seller for sure. So many ways I could go with this.

It's important to recognize when a piece of art is done. Don't tamper or tinker with that beauty at the risk of ruining its essence.

Mhm...
"Jack Romano, Sex Machine For Hire, Fireman Stripper Model #10301 was accidentally called when a birthday cake candle went out of control; he arrived on the scene with his crotch panel barely masked behind a latex speedo, his fireproof coat swirling behind him, and promptly combusted."
I suppose from there you could write a seventy book saga on the mafia threatening to destroy the candle companies? I figure if they're each 10k words, and you're on cocaine, and your advances average to about $200 per book, you can make around ten thousand dollars in a week.

Jack Romano was a legend in his own mind.
Bit of a cliché, but makes one wonder...why.

Jack Romano looked at his feet, looked at the ice in his life. He had not realized he lived in a Curling Rink!

Sounds like another vampire/werewolf blood feud to me. Jack Romano: Lycanthropic P.I. Feel free to use that as your title. Heh.

Jack Romano couldn't remember why he'd felt such a need to drop his pants and unload on the new carpet.

Jack Romano dived out of the computer screen, grabbed the rather surprised author with both hands and started shaking him. "WRITE ME!" He roared. "WRIIIIIITE MEEEEEE!"

I bolded my additions, which make this title exactly the sort of story the agents are looking for. It's the next big thing.

Make him go through some extreme things.
what? That's up do you.
Doesn't the name itself give you a clue of his personality?
You think..."Jack Romano"
What traits come to mind with that name?

That's all you got? :ROFL: I'm sorry for laughing, but it struck me funny.
"Jack Romano, you get back here and be a man."

Jack Romano gazed up from his blank computer screen and read the memo he'd posted for himself:
"A writer will use any excuse to avoid writing."

Tell me the truth, this has to be a joke post. I am repressing the urge to put something vulgar here, but I'm an idjit.
Jack Romano? Is he any relation to Corky?

Jack Romano, the Cheese Master of Cheese Masters in Wisconsin, leaped out of the speeding jet liner, his parachute neutered by the knife-wound it had absorbed mere moments before.
