    Well, I got hundreds of characters, individual consciousnesses living in my head constantly.

    But in the interest of not giving you enough reading to last till kingdom comes… XD
    …I will keep it down to some of my most major people…a few of my most, most major people…or maybe just one, given how deep this is probably gonna go…

    ~Ben Carmichael
    Ben is the American born son of a Scottish and Irish immigrant. His mom died when he was only four, and his dad was KIA in Afghanistan when he was eight. He was summarily adopted by his father’s best friend. As of current date, he is 21 years old, recently married, and stationed at a Special Forces base in Virginia.
    He is highly mechanically-inclined, always ready to join a fight for a worthy cause, and not afraid of getting his hands dirty, but he is also super social, emotionally sensitive, and can be downright sweet and adorable when he wants to be. The proof is that his sweetheart used to hate his guts once upon a time, and now she’s married to him.

    Way back when I first started noveling, Ben was the first character I ever created. And I originally based him on my imaginary twin brother. For whatever reason, I gave him two last names, which is what led to creating the storyline where he becomes orphaned and adopted.

    He definitely stole my story from me. It used to be a story about what my life would be like if I had a twin. Then it was a story about what my life might have been if I lived on a farm and had a twin. Then Ben kinda mutinied, took over the narration, and deleted me from the story that was originally about me. Now its all about him.

    Funny story, though, he eventually added me back later in the timeline…sort of…if a mentally unstable ex-black ops assassin with my last name can really be considered a version of me.
