Profile of Noweli

Today, I realised how little I knew about my own characters. During french lesson, Anne saw me writing the draft for Noweli's profile. I had written out the colour of his eyes and hair and was wondering about his height when she went:"What about nose?"



"Nose?"



"Yeah, is his nose flat or sharp?"



"Um..."( no idea)"strong. His nose is strong"



I like the word strong. Saves me the trouble of thinking up new descriptions.



"His mouth? Is is wide or small? Soft or hard?"



That sounds wrong. But I was past caring that. I was desperately thinking up some substitute word for strong.



"well...his mouth is firm."



That sound really wrong.



Anne went on to interrogate me about his favourite book, favourite car, favourite food and whether he had chest hair.

"How would I know?"

She said that I was supposed to know as he was my character.

Oh well.

So now I am creating a profile for Noweli to show that I do know about my own character.

Or at least pretend to know.

The Bianca Dilemma

Yes, I know the usual descriptions of Bianca. Bithchy...whiny...blah

But now, I have a bit of a problem...maybe more than a bit...actually.

OK, maybe writing it on the blog is not such a good idea, since half the people have no idea what I am crapping about...

But no one reads my blog, so who cares!

Back to topic, there is a scene of Bianca in my story that I am wondering if I should write.

Silly, right? I mean,it's my story, so I should write whatever I want! But the problem is, people read my story. The same people who gave me hell over the Tom and Carmen incident.

So if I write in the scene, I would probably have hordes of people chasing after me.

Angry people.

So I guess it's no then. And I should probably stop dropping hints about Bianca.

Very very obvious hints.So obvious that ZH noticed.

Ok, ZH is a pro at noticing things. Like Roland/Carmen.That was...super...

On a second note, June holidays is ending and I still haven't finish The Master of Treason.

Who was the genius who said that she wanted to start the Child of Darkness by July?

Oops.
