Brooke replied to the topic Character Castle 2.0 in the forum Fantasy Writers 4 years, 5 months ago
Hello there!
Is it alright if I pop a character or two into the fray? I may or may not be able to stay very long, for life keeps running on, but in that case I will pop them right back out again. Stranger things have happened here, have they not? 😛
Oh, and Denali, is that you?!? You were on the Wingfeather Forum, right?!?! So good to see your…[Read more]

So sorry about the posts not being all in one post! I just realized they wouldn’t post as one, bc I was trying to include a couple links, and they wouldn’t go through. You don’t have to reply to all of that LOL — its overwhelming, haha

I can’t tell you any details about Ziyad because it’s kinda spoilers. He has kinda a tragic backstory so he has his…. issues. And because of character agency, that means he’s made a lot of really bad choices XD He’s honestly a mess, but he really tries and I love him for it. I think he has a genuinely good heart and good inte…

I’ve tried in vain to like classical music, but it’s hard and I get bored XD I think my favorite is definitely folk, especially Celtic and South American. It’s just too much fun! My favorites are by Ortiz. (Oh, his books are for piano too! I have the International Rhythmic Collection parts one and two.) My favorite songs are Habanera Gris and D…[Read more]

So sorry, I have (once more) failed to prioritize correctly and completely forgot to reply.
The story of my life 😉
LOL, yes! I was playing a song I haven’t played in a really long time and I was very creeped out that my fingers were playing it faster than I could read (And I don’t have it memorized) and it was weird XD<…

@rose-colored-fancy  (I’m posting this in segments to see if that will make it go through . . .)
LOL, nope! Just this week, my harp teacher asked me to play a song from memory. (I know it really well, I can play it perfectly without even thinking about it) and I couldn’t do it at all XD If I focus on memorizing one I could, but I haven’t for qu…

I totally agree with all of you! This was a great topic idea, Rose! I don’t think I’ve read any of these books y’all have mentioned (except LOTR), but I sure know which ones to avoid now! XD
I haven’t really done a whole lot of reading lately since life dec…[Read more]

That’s so cool! I’m still playing harp. Can you read sheet music yet? I remember what an absolute struggle that was to learn XD Learning to sight-read was an uphill battle and until then I had to memorize the songs XD
Oh, the harp is such a beautiful instrument! And yes, I can read music, but I’ve only memorized one song (we…[Read more]

Thanks so much, y’all!!! I really appreciate it!! I couldn’t exactly put my finger on the issues, but you guys hit the nail on the head! I’ve got a way better understanding of what I’ve gotta do now.
I definitely agree with showing more of Isaac’s thoughts. I think that it would help me to connect with him as a person, and also cou…
