Logan Black–main character (hero)
Gabriella Kamiyama–secondary character (good guy, daughter of Yukio btw)
Blake Aricson–secondary character: antihero
Daren Azimalik–villain
Jonah Cnatonus–secondary character (hero)
Yukio Kamiyama–villain (big baddie)Interesting how you came to similar, but different conclusions.

@ethryndal That’s alright. You see that I melted no chairs.
It depends on how you pronounce Slua comparted to Sluagh. Slua is pronounced Slew-a, right? At first glance, Sluagh is read to me Slow, not Sluagh as in Cow. -

Of course I don’t mind. Everybody’s entitled to their own opinion. 🙂

@rolena-hatfield: Hey, thanks for the welcome! 😀
Oh, okay. I was just amazed to see a forum with no activity for a year. XD
I do read a bit, although probably not as much as I should. 😛 I don’t think have a specific favorite book, but I’m currently reading P.G. Wodehouse at the moment, and I enjoy his books.
Baking and singing! 😀 I like…[Read more]

As for violin, I have been taking lessons by the best teacher ever! (She’s actually from the States) We do it in her home (now, not at first) and we all have such a good time we usually go over half an hour. She’s picky, especially about me playing loud, but I…[Read more] -

@ethryndal WAIAIAIAIAIT!!!! Ahem. A dragon is never late. They arrive precisely when they meant to. Now. I prefer………slua. *nods head* My work here is done. 😛

Definitely Slua hands down. I normally wouldn’t choose it, but the names of your creatures sound like they would work well with Slua.
If you have any more questions, please let me know!

@ethryndal, @jess, @kate-flournoy That’s interesting insight you had. Really interesting.
The actual alignment of these characters are:
James Manning: Hero
Pandora Flynn: Hero
Amadeus Janssen: Villain
Marcus Coleman: Villain
Jackson Levi: Hero
It was interesting hearing your opinions on their names. 😀

@ethryndal Yep! Actually I was going to guess Princess Bride, Count Rugen to Wesley on your quote, but I guess that’s not it.
How about, “Oh, look! The princess has a powder room!” (Bonus points to whoever guesses that one.) -

@ethryndal Oh! Big Hero 6. Baymax said that about ten times in a row to Hiro.

So this is a fun game my brother and I play a lot at home. One person says a random line from a movie or book and another person has to ‘quote it’ or give the source of the quote. The person who gets it right gets to do their own. So here’s the first one.

@kate-flournoy This is kind of like, really cool to be on at the same time as someone else. It’s like I’m having a real conversation.
Everyone else, is there anyone in your family that you have based a character off of? My only one would be my cousin’s cousin, Hans, who is 15. He’s a guy who would try and jump a fence to see if he could and end…[Read more]

Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 5 months ago
@ethryndal I just realized that when you said it. One day I was pretty mad at things that had prevented things that I’d wanted to do (like go to the library and read outside and talk to my friend) and that day I wrote the angriest conversation I’ve ever had in a book.

Jess replied to the topic The Mind of a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 5 months ago
@Ethryndal, Yes, I do that. I don’t like experiencing feelings, (INTJ here) so I’ll just hand it off to one of my characters. It makes them quite realistic. 😉
@Kate-Flournoy, I freak myself out on purpose all the time. My imagination is going to be the death of me, I’m sure.
