It really is phenomenal. The scene where Louisa falls is amazing, too, I agree. 🙂 Do you read much Jane Austen?

These snippets describe the personality of one of my favorite characters pretty well, if I do say so myself. 😉
His hair was a disheveled mess, and it took only a glance to perceive that he was positively irate. “Duxus!” he snapped. “Do you realize what time it is?”
“Yes, sir, I do…”
“It’s moonhigh! Midnight!”
“I know that, sir…”
“And you…

Ooo I love humorous stories!!
One way I embarrassed myself? Once, I was playing with a little girl. We climbed up the slide and she raced down it, so I followed. However, I was going down slowly so I pushed myself forward and–
–tumbled head-over-heels down the slide, where I promptly landed at my crush’s feet.
I was mortified.

Gotcha. (Hope we didn’t spoil anything for you… *cringes*) He’s such an iconic character… What would the series be without him…

@madelyn XD Yep! It’s both very exciting and slightly terrifying at the same time.
Let me know what you think when you do! And most definitely agreed.

Oh, goodness. XD Whoops.
*GASPETH* THAT’S BRILLIANT! WHOA, THAT’S SO COOL. 😍
Heheh, yep, drawing parallels is so much fun. The wolf in mind is the brother of Maid Marian, and since the girl’s name is Scarlet I had Will Scarlet play around with different last names before finally settling on Hunter and filling that role. . .…[Read more]

Aww, thank you! And I will. XP Planning to get it professionally edited next year. . . still not sure if I’ll be pursuing publication with it, but I haven’t ruled the idea out yet.

@trahia-the-minstrel XD I’m much more comfortable with most accents due to being bilingual, but then I accidentally throw something in there and my readers just go “WHOA WAIT WHAT”.

Awww, thank you! The connection was actually pointed out by a friend, and I latched onto it at once. I’m almost done outlining (just need to run it by some friends and get the chapters sketched out), and then I’ll plunge into the first draft. 😀
Mhm! I feel like I’ve read something recently that had to do with Rumpelstiltskin, but I’m…[Read more]
