No need to apologize! No worries whatsoever 🙂

That’s a good technique! I like to do that with all my characters (even if I never use their POV in a book) just so I have practice of writing their emotions and what their personalities look like when I use them in the background or something 😀

Oh wow that’s great XD Brothers sure enjoy helping out with torture don’t they? 😛 😉 At least, mine do sometimes, LOL. Whenever I ask them for ideas for chapters (which is always a mistake XD), they are almost always like “how about everybody dies” LOL. I think you are absolutely right about characters being out of their comfort-zones in writing; I don’t think I’ve ever read a book where the MC was like “I am perfectly happy with everything that is going on, and nothing could ever go wrong” and stays that way through the entire novel XD

Ohhh okay, I didn’t know that that is what it means XD Now that I know that, I can say that I used to do that before I started outlining, and I had the same results as you. I would rewrite entire books that I had written, like, 5 chapters on because I had written myself into a corner or didn’t know what should happen next. Outlining, while tedious for me most of the time, has drastically changed my writing 🙂

Hmm music genre… I like Christian music, but the only songs in that genre that I really listen to are the songs/hymns written by Matt Boswell and Matt Papa. I 100% recommend listening to them if you haven’t; my church sings a lot of their songs for our worship services, and they are SO good! I also listen to a LOT of Pentatonix music, so I would say they are one of my favorite music groups. I constantly change my favorite song, but most of them end up being Pentatonix remakes of songs XD Right now my favorite song is the PTX remake of “Shallow.” I have a bit of an obsession with Pentatonix, in case you couldn’t tell 😉

How about you? 🙂
