Yep, fantasy lover here as well! 😀

Did I already say that…

Hey now, if you can’t become a successful author with an O’…” name, nobody can.

Thanks! @kate-flournoy

@adry_grace, thanks for the tips! 🙂

@adry_grace: Hehe, I’m as distracted as they come. 😉 Yeah, LOTR is a pretty hard read (my dad read it out loud to my siblings and me the first time). But it’s really worth it. Yes! Tolkien is the geniusest genius of all the geniuses. 😛

@rolena-hatfield and @bluejay:

Did someone say theater? I LOVE theater!!! And musicals…and…and…all of it. @rolena-hatfield, you do community theater???? Okay, we need to talk! I do community theater, too! *suddenly remembers to breathe* This is so exciting! Who were you in the shows you listed, @rolena-hatfield?

Oh, okay. Thanks for the ideas and help @Daeus! 🙂

@gretald
Mostly intuition and mostly as I go. When I first make a character, I get a feel for them. It’s not really a set definition of who they are, it’s more about how they make me feel. When I’m writing them in a scene, I try to bring out that feeling in concrete character qualities. Sometimes I emphasise character qualities I have already…[Read more]

Yep, well there it is! 😉 And I’ll be happy to answer any further questions you have, of course, provided I KNOW the answers. 😉 😀
I just figured you should see if any of your questions had already been answered before we went over it again. 😛

@gretald

Hehe, thanks @ingridrd

@kate-flournoy: Hehe, I was looking for that topic, but I couldn’t remember where it was. 🙂

@Daeus: Thanks! So how do you develop characters?

Honestly, I don’t develop my character’s that way. Don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad. If you like to ask questions though, try these:
Does this character keep tend to keep their thought to themselves, or express them openly?
How do their general life circumstances affect their disposition?
How do they respond to praise?

Allow me to redirect you. 🙂 To that place in the link right there. 🙂

Oh! And Zar’roc, if you remember it— Brom’s sword from ‘Eragon’. Pretty cool.

Sting. Anduril. Excalibur. Orcrist. Glamdring.

Mirlon. Navrilnon.

Just kidding about those last two— they’re mine. 😉 😛

I’ll let you know if I think of any more.

Wow, nothing but the whole nine yards for your work, eh Chloe?

And I must say that’s quite a bit of… fandomness! 😉 I’m a Hobbit/LotR fangirl as well. And the Princess Bride! Love that movie!
I’m afraid my list of fandoms is not nearly so impressive as yours, but I think that’s because I’m too picky for my own good… 😛 😉

Oh no! Not an English kid!

😉

Actually no, there’s nothing wrong with being an English kid. In fact, it gives you a significant advantage over… people like me.

I still hate English with every bone in my body. 😛

But a love for English is a very good way to start off your career.
