		Dixon is being held.” Neither Boyette nor any representative of the Union or NALC received a response to the letter.
		In sum, we find that the information requested by the Union regarding the Respondent’s denial of Dixon’s transfer request was relevant and necessary to a determination by the Union of whether the Respondent’s denial of the transfer request was for legitimate reasons, or whether the denial was discriminatorily motivated.

	ALL ABOUT ROMANCE (novels) reviews Bad to the Bone by Debra Dixon (Site not responding. Last check: )
		According to Dixon's intro, her story might have been aptly subtitled Goldilocks and the Three Hitmen.
		Dixon does an excellent job of establishing credible attraction and sexual chemistry from the start, with Sully musing that Jessica's "legs were a shade longer than the Texas legal limit" and that she has the look of a woman who is easily able to bring a man, gladly, to his knees.
		She's an enigma to him, supremely confident but occasionally showing subtle signs of fear when his questions are too probing: a brassy boldness offset by a hint of carnal innocence.

	Conflictarticle (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Debra Dixon (Goal, Motivation, and Conflict) defines conflict variously as “a struggle against someone or something in which the outcome is in doubt,” or “conflict is two dogs and one bone,” or “conflict is friction, tension, opposition.” Alicia Rasley in her pamphlet Conflict Without Combat says that conflict is about resolution.
		Or the external conflict may pit the hero or heroine against a villain such as a scheming ex-wife or an antagonist such as the hero’s matchmaking mother (Too Wicked to Love) or a greedy banker (Stranger in a Small Town).
		So as you revise, here are some questions to ask yourself as you examine your plot, your characters, and their goals, motivation, and conflict.
