I believe Tolkien wrote Sam as the central protagonist in a book with many other MCs. Frodo and Sam are the two most important, and the hobbits are the focus characters. Other MCs are Pippin, Merry, Aragon, ect.

I actually wrote a research argument paper over this question for college. It was quite interesting to dig into.

Uh oh, I…[Read more]

Yes! I love Men of Iron! The characters are so beautifully complex, the settingis very well researched–one of the best of it’s time–, and the writing itself is just a joy to read.

@starofthenorth

That is funny. I’m more of an introvert, but I am one of those who don’t mind people, and want one or two close friends. That bleeds over into my characters a lot. =|

Hmm. I have an interesting range.

Zlatan in an introvert of sorts. He’s a very intense character who needs time alone but is also a strong leader.

Vulkasin is a complete extrovert, who has a thousand acquaintances and only a few close friends. (Somewhat due to circumstances)

Wilkins is an I. He needs one or two close friends, and a little time…[Read more]

So I was just reading through y’all’s conversation, and you talked so much about Sam and Frodo…

Ahhhh!!!! Those two are my absolute favorite favorite characters of LotR. Admittedly I’ve only read the books, but that means I have a closer appreciation for what the author intended, right?

Sam is so wonderful, and I…[Read more]

It’s beautiful, and slightly foreboding. I love it!

@felicity, the thing that Len gave to Amidala is definitely important. Sometimes I actually forget to mention it in future chapters 😅, but it will play a big role in the future! 😏

Next two chapters! (I already have like twenty written, so that’s why I’m getting the…[Read more]

@sarafini @godlyfantasy12

Yeah. I was just thinking Ev would try to make her jealous, but now that I think about it, they’d then have to have a conversation about it. That may kind of ruin the whole dynamic in my head for the actual book. 😅
I may just have him act like that with any girl, cause I’m playing around with that facet of his…[Read more]

@felicity

I know right? Sam is the absolute hero!!!!! (I mean, I guess Frodo went through a lot, so, I’ll give him a little credit.

Yes!! He is! “I can’t carry it for you…but I can carry you!” I LOVE that part. So sweet😢🥰. Yeah, I’m sorry Frodo, you went through a lot too😅😭.

Now THAT is one of the best parts ever! Gimli and Legolas having a co…

Girl!!! That looks so good!!!!! I ❤️ it!!

@felicity

I didn’t find myself confused at all bc you had the character’s names at the start of each chapter. I write in two POVs all the time. The way I signal it’s someone different it by starting each first sentence of the chapter with their name. (Well, at least most of the time)

Thanks for the feedback! 😀

Yep! You’re welcome!!

@felicity

Not a problem! And if you come across anything you’d like to share, I’m just a beginner myself so I’d appreciate it.

@sarafini

It may work better if you do change Jasmine’s age. 😅 But it’s up to you. I have my characters work around it.

@felicity

I love it so far!! I can really feel the characters’ personalities. And you’re doing a great job writing in present tense. Like, I’ve tried it before, and I just can’t do it right. 😅 So, awesome job! I can’t wait to read more!!

@felicity @lightoverdarkness

Lol! I don’t remember those parts in the movies.

In the movies, I didn’t really like Frodo either. (I’ve also only read the first LotR book, so maybe he actually is a great character 😅)

@koshka

Great idea for a topic!! I’ll definitely be on this thread as I research more my Civil War idea!

@felicity @freedomwriter76

Thanks!!

@felicity

I got all the links in, although I had to submit them one at a time.

@mineralizedwritings

*Gasp* In our world? I did not see that coming. =O XD

Pop in whenever you want! We all need to do research, even if it’s not needed. =)
