#WritersCoffeeClub 16. Is there a writer who surprised you recently?
I'll be polite and not name the writer who surprised me this morning, by having a character thrown out of a casino for trying to gain an advantage by counting cards...
...at *poker*.

@klepsydra and I take it they were not attempting to establish the level of stupidity of the character ;)
@leinir No, just inadequate knowledge/research.
Like the very well respected US author who had a British character go into a chip shop, and be asked "Would you like vinegar and salt?"
Or the other very well respected US author who had her character travel on the Jubilee Line in the 1940s, and pay in decimal currency. And who got an award for that book.
