…

I’m wondering if I even want to read your book anymore.  It sounds depressing. 😛

Please tell me it has a happy ending! 😉

@rochellaine @seekjustice

My first thought was: What other thought would a person have when they wake up in the morning apart from, “I want more sleep”?

But OK, I’ll try to take my character’s perspective and provide a more insightful response. 😛

I suppose when Myeongwol gets up, she would look out of her window and be greeted by the beautiful…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Yilla–various prosaic things about the sunrise and the state of the world around her. Courageous–“[insert various made up swear words] I have to talk to people”. High-Praise–various complaints about various things in various ways.

@valtmy @seekjustice

Okay: What is the first thing your character thinks of when he/she wakes up in the morning?

@rochellaine

Very good 🙂

@rochellaine

Yep 🙂

Now what’s the question you want to ask us? (Or our characters?)

@valtmy @seekjustice Sorry, that took a bit longer than I expected.

…and I got distracted chatting with my mom. 😉

Okay, Valtmy’s question: Bathshua would most likely tell a lie to prevent people from finding out who her father was.  Or she would tell a lie to protect her family.

SeekJustice’s question: Bathshua is interested in getting…[Read more]

@valtmy

I did answer it, but the forum hasn’t been working flawlessly for me, so maybe it did disappear.

The gist was that Yilla would lie to keep her family safe. Courageous would lie to protect himself. High-Praise would lie to get what she wanted.

@seekjustice

I don’t think I saw your answer to my question? The forum has been acting funny. Did it disappear?

My answer: Myeongwol adores romance. Obviously. She wants a romantic relationship like a fairytale (or in her case, a drama). At least, the pre-time skip Myeongwol does. Post-time skip Myeongwol is a cynical sack of bitterness and…[Read more]

@valtmy @Rochellaine

Ah,yes, my question:

How does your character feel about romantic relationships?

@rochellaine

Hi, glad you can join us 😀 Basically, we take turns asking questions about our characters and answer them. You can skim through our earlier posts to get an idea.

The last question was asked by me (the lying one) so I’ll wait for your answers. Then it’ll be @seekjustice‘s turn to ask a question.

@seekjustice Uh, that sounds interesting. 😛

I’ve got to send an email for the family ministry, but then I’d love to join!  How is it played? 😀

@rochellaine

Would you like to join in the Crazy Character Game?

@seekjustice

I think you have a pretty good idea as to the most embarrassing situation Myeongwol has ever been in (hint: it’s in the first chapter). In case you haven’t noticed, I tend to put my characters in lots of awkward and embarrassing situations. 😛 That’s because I have always been puzzled as to why so many writers can allow their MCs to…[Read more]

@valtmy

Her culture is loosely based on general Australian Aboriginal culture. Horses are a very recent addition to real world Australia and the real life Aborigines had little to do with them. Aborigines also, for the most part lived hunter-gatherer lifestyles and didn’t really keep animals, so I can’t really steal from real life when it comes…[Read more]

@valtmy

Yilla would say to take away someone’s freedom. Courageous would say to take their dignity. High-Praise would say would say their privilege/inheritence/dues.

Or maybe their hot chocolate, who knows?

What is the most embarrassing situation they have ever been in?

@seekjustice

On a completely random note, you know how I asked what beverage your character would like to drink and you answered that Yilla would probably have only ever drank water before her entrance to the palace? Well, do you think Yilla would drink mare milk? Or milk from whatever other animals her family has?

I’m not sure what culture you…[Read more]

@seekjustice

All right. Here’s my question:

What do your characters think is the worst thing that can be done to a person?

@jenwriter17

Its not even lunch time *moans*

@valtmy

Most certainly. Since Jen is gone, would you like to ask a question?

@jenwriter17

All right then. Have a good rest!

@seekjustice

Do you want to continue the game?
