Hey, a writer's got to get her inspiration from somewhere

Here's a little tidbit about the inspiration behind one character in Syphon's Song. 

Claude Hines is named in honor of Duncan Hines. 

Because I like cake. A lot.

And there's nothing that looks better to me than the picture of cake on the Devil's Food cake mix box. 

Ok, except Alexander Skarsgard in Tarzan. He looks better. 

Yum. Just yum.
