@jonas @everyone

Changed my mind! Swapping characters before I start (so I’m not using Noa.) I know I could use them both but I would rather just stick with one WIP. (I might add Sara’s twin brother in later.)

Here is my character…

Sara Bauer

Sara is seventeenish. She has dark hair, olive skin, and wears contacts (occasionally glass…[Read more]

I updated. 😊 Don’t feel obligated to respond again, I just wanted to post it.

@whalekeeper

Haha, I get what you mean. Sometimes I enjoy research, sometimes it’s overwhelming how much you DON’T KNOW about a subject. But I really appreciate all your help 🤗

Awesome! Thank you!!

@whalekeeper

I’m not trying to steal the way you see everything, it’s just so interesting finding out how a real person with synesthesia would think about them 😅

@whalekeeper

Awesome!! Thanks so much!

Also, purely curiosity, what color is the name Sara to you? Or Cole?

@whalekeeper

Imagine if there was a pink fire. A combination of glowing orange and pale translucent pink. That’s what I associate hope with. :] 

Wow. I LOVE that description. Do you mind if I use it or something similar?

Thank you so much for answering all the questions! I will probably have more once I start writing. 😁

@whalekeeper

I even wrote a ten-page research paper on the subject, so I’ve done the research dive myself and it is certainly complicated.

That’s long! 😅 Well great, that means you’re an expert xD

Can you imagine what a short film abot it would look like? 😄

That would be SO cool… and trippy 😂

Wow. Thank you so much—that was really cool to read.…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

If you have time, I would LOVE to hear examples. Like, describing the things you see/feel/hear and what happens when you do.

@whalekeeper

Oh my goodness, how did I not know that before?? I am so glad though. (You may be bombarded with questions in the near future. ;))

I don’t know some of those, but I will definitely be googling them asap. I’m not sure what the proper names are for all of hers, (this is still kind of an early stage of development haha) but she see…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Sounds really fun! I will see if I can whip up something 😊

@whalekeeper

Thanks!! No, sometimes I wish I did, though. It’s a really cool thing. Do you?

@esther-c

Thanks for the invite! (Sorry, I know I’m late haha.) I may be joining the camp as long as it’s not too late and my mom says okay. ☺

@jonas

Awesome! Ok, my character is Noa Montero, a seventeen-year-old apprentice pilot.

@theducktator

Thanks!! I almost have to change it now, haha. Same!! They are SO good. I just reread the whole series and started the Chronicles of Avonlea, which I’ve never read before. Which ones have you read?

(Rilla of Ingleside is so sad!! 😭)

@freed_and_redeemed

Thank you!!

@rae

Ok, Chapter 11. It was good. I liked seeing Nahim with the guys and Mandin haha. There was a lot of unconsciousness and Nahim not responding to people, but I get that (a) they’re fighting spiders that make you fall asleep and (b) Nahim has some issues with talking to other people. Those were my main thoughts. Overall, great job!

@ellette-giselle

Thanks!! 😁

@mineralizedwritings

Also, have you heard of Kara Swanson? Random, but she’s a great fantasy author who also happens to have Lyme disease. She wrote Dust and Shadow and her new book that just came out was Ignite.

New moodboard for Sara Bauer, the main character in my 2nd WIP:

She has synesthesia and is a budding writer/journalist. Her story takes place in dystopian (2090s) Denver
