I imagine Yilla had in mind a quiet life, getting married, having children and doing all the other things expected of her. Courageous wasn’t imagining anything other than Not King. High-Praise was going for flattery, admiration from all the world and a rather sugary sweet romance.

None of them really got what they wanted.

Do your…[Read more]

@valtmy

Who would your character trust with their deepest secret?

@valtmy

Of course they would 😛

High-Praise’s father is dead and she never knew him, but she loves her mother’s wisdom. The thing she hates would be the fact that her mother sold her off as a child bride. Which would probably be a relationship dampener for anyone.

Yilla loves her father and stepmother’s love for each other and their family. She…[Read more]

@valtmy

😀 Yilla would be one of those super practical people whose email address is YillaGaegonal. Courageous would stay well away from the internet and High-Praise would go with TheMostAwesomeQueen or something like that.

What is your characters favourite type of chocolate?

@valtmy

What would your characters be like if they had made a different decision at a major turning point in their lives?

@valtmy

Oh, interesting. I think Yilla would fear losing her family the most, as much of what she does is to protect them. I think Courageous fears losing just about everything so its hard to say what he fears most. High-Praise would start off fearing losing her position and privilege and finishes off fearing losing her children.

@valtmy

Ensuring it sounds even more ominous.

Ah, yes. Where would your character like to be in five years?

@valtmy

I don’t imagine so. Revolutionaries don’t tend to put their disposed kings in luxury prisons.

Well, its true that I have a general abhorrence for royalty, but he sounds quite interesting, and I do admire the fact that he kicks his brothers onto the street.

I’m not sure if I should admire that, but I do.

The question was open to…[Read more]

@valtmy

A relaxing soak with your phone?

Unfortunately for Courageous, he ends up as a homeless commoner anyway. Though he isn’t technically homeless, since he at least gets to live in prison.

I like this character of yours, though it seems like you can’t win with him.

Ah, sorry. I was distracted by suggested wordcounts for YA, and by w…[Read more]

@valtmy

But I’m not sure I see the point of going to the pool if you’re going to spend all your time on the net 😛

Well, we could argue about that till the cows come home. But at least homeless commoners don’t have to make royal addresses 😀

@jenwriter17

WHAT????

Bye 🙂

@valtmy

Ooh, a swim sounds lovely. I haven’t been swimming in ages.

Being king keeps Courageous up at night. I don’t know what would keep Yilla up at night but it would have to be something very, very terrible. Homesickness and/or loneliness would keep High-Praise awake.

Shu Juqing sounds quite interesting. And I…[Read more]

@seekjustice @valtmy

I’m going to have to leave now. I am super tired and my brothers wanted to watch a movie before we go to bed. I might not really be on for a while, because I’ll be pretty busy with school next week and my family’s taking a trip. But I’ll be on November 1st! 😀

Bye! The character questioning was fun. 😉

@valtmy

I was just thinking that Shu Juqing sounded quite nice. Maybe I misinterpreted everything 😛

@jenwriter17

It’s a great traditional delicacy and was particularly popular before the colonisation

@valtmy

I don’t know if Yilla is charismatic enough to do really well at running fot president, but if she did she’d be a great president. Courageous and High-Praise wouldn’t get far at all, which is unfortunate, seeing as they actually are…[Read more]

@valtmy

Ooh, that’s a hard one too…

If Rin ran for president, she would try her best, cuz that’s just what she does with most things. But actually being president, she’d probably miss her normal life too much. Jax would be a good level-headed person, but he’s pretty soft-spoken and might get overwhelmed with all the responsibilities. Vega and…[Read more]

@valtmy

I like that answer 🙂 Does this Crown prince have a name?

@jenwriter17

High-Praise: chocolate. Courageous: Vegetables? Yilla: kangaroo.

@seekjustice @valtmy

I think Uma might enjoy corresponding with Danni from my novella. They both have sweet kind personalities, though Danni’s over-the-top nature might make Uma nervous.

my question: What’s your character’s favorite food?

@valtmy  @jenwriter17

I think Yilla would study either agricultural or horticulture, probably agriculture. I can see her loving learning about soil types and growing things and such like. Courageous would probably go for…dramatic arts? I don’t know. And High-Praise has the attention span of a gnat, so even if she went to university I doubt…[Read more]

@valtmy

Mm, that’s actually a really hard question!

Rin…it’s hard to say for her; she might not even be interested in going (have you no ambition, Rin?!). Uma and Vega would probably want to major in something that involved helping a lot of people. Nym would want to go into computers or something like that. And Jax might want to join the mi…[Read more]

@valtmy Sure! 😉

@seekjustice

my question: To which of your other book worlds would your current WIP’s main character like to visit?
