I’m happy I’m not the only broken record on here. You just like what you like you know? XD
I don’t think I’ve heard of the Casson Family series before, but from the little you said about it, it sounds really interesting. Do you have a favorite book and character from the series?
I’ve yet to read Six of…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin
Ah yes. Character who have the same hair color as you. A topic, I fear, is frankly not discussed enough!
Although I have never been a blonde hair user as yourself, (I’m a brunette you see), I understand your struggle to relate to characters whose hair color doesn’t match yours.
Like when I read about a blonde…[Read more]

“What’s your favorite Backstory?”
I’m going to risk sounding like a broken record and say Zuko from ATLA.(I seriously need to expand my consumption of fiction so I can find a new favorite and use something else as answers.)
I really love backstories that have direct consequences on the main plot and also help you understand why the character…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic What's your favorite type of villain? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 5 months ago
As much as I love complex backstories, I totally understand what you mean by big-bad-powerful villains. They feel so strong and powerful like if they say they rule the world, you’d believe it.
Because they are so much more memorable. And it forces the protagonist to grow and become stronger to defeat them.
I love what…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic What's your favorite type of villain? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 5 months ago
So much yes on character who don’t feel like they were solely made for the plot! Those are my favorite kind characters whether they are a villains or any other type of character.

What’s your favorite type of antagonist? Dark lord, mastermind, monster, criminal, etc.
My favorite is the reflection villain.A villain who is one, personally connected in some way with the main character, and who has a lot of similarities with the main character.
Like the villain is the image of what would happen to the main character they…[Read more]

Such a sweet story! It’s kinda cool how something that can be such a hassle for one person can be a dream come true for another.
He sounds like such a cool character!
Although it doesn’t happened all the time, I love it when I see or meet someone who seems straight out of a fictional world. Everything about them is so…[Read more]

Oh, wow. What kind of car was that? If you do end up writing this into a story I bet you could make up some really cool explanation, like… alien car, fairy car, super-high-tech-rich-guy’s car, I don’t know. XD
But I can imagine it being a really fun scene.
Haha! It would would be really fun to write about a…[Read more]

Yeah, I get what you mean. Almost anything can be easier or harder depending on the situation.
Have you ever based characters on other people in your life?

Camille can make you spill all your secrets and publish them? Woah, she’s on a another level. Not necessarily a higher one but definitely a different one. XD
It’s cool how you modeled Tess after yourself! It would be very interesting going to brunch with someone very similar to yourself.

Those sound like really interesting books! But I only think I’ve heard of Pride and Prejudice and The Chronicles of Narnia. About Pride and Prejudice, I’ve heard a lot of mixed opinions about it. Some people I know love it and some people I know hate it. Why do you like it? Just curious, I’ve been wanting to read it for awhile now and I…[Read more]

From your character descriptions, Tell Me No Lies makes me feel like it’s a story filled with mystery, secrets, betrayal, and characters that you don’t know whether or not to love or bolt the opposite direction from. I may be wrong, but that’s the just the feeling I got and I love it. XD

Woah, your ruthless! Just joking, but poor Fulke! Would you try to get him out of prison or would you just skedaddle? I mean from your description, he does kinda sound like someone who might deserve to be there. But it’s quite a unusual and tragic ending to die because of “Security camera ignorance”.
Yes! I absolutely love…[Read more]
