Ok, so I know it's been a while, but hell, no one reads this anyway. It's more of a personal thing...and I'm cool with that. Well with Nanowrimo behind me I have been putting a lot of time and effort into my MS. I have to say that writing a good book...not that easy. First I wrote the book, then I re-wrote the book. Then I realized the story wasn't actually complete and now I am re-writing once more. It's amazing how much goes into making a readable work of art. I love it though, I love the challenge and I love letting my mind get sucked into the strange world that is my imagination. But having worked with these characters for so long I feel they have soooo much more to tell. So, long story short, I'm making this a series of books. Not just a standalone. I love the idea behind the abilities and I love the characters. I just hope that I can get their personalities to shine through the way I want them too.

Alexis is so damn witty. She has a snazzy comeback for everything. I like that about her. She takes no crap from anyone. Sadly, she's about to have a total meltdown. You know, it was bound to happen though. No one can go through life so emotionally withdrawn and not eventually have a total breakdown.

Micah, man...I LOVE Micah. He is so freaking SEXY! I want him. Just the guy I see inside my head...ohh. He's like a cross between Joaquin Phoenix and Brad Pitt. (Joaquin for everything except for Brad's hair in Meet Joe Black). YUMMY! Of course, that's Joaquin before his own personal meltdown. It's Joaquin in The Village or in Walk the Line. Ohh - la - la. I love me some Joaquin.

(Ok, time for a side rant) - So I was recently having a discussion with someone very close to me about Joaquin and they said, "You really love him, don't you?"

Of course I had to laugh about this. I said, "I can't love someone I don't know. But he is hot as hell, and I wouldn't kick him out of my bed for eating crackers."

SO then...they were like, "Wait, you mean you don't know him and you'd have sex with him?"

Now you have to understand...I am NOT a slut...I'm barely 30 and I've only had sex with a grand total of five guys! So, no, totally not a slut. But here's the thing, I joke about things like this all the time, hell I've even said the EXACT same thing about Angelina Jolie...and here this person is and they are truly sure that I am so serious. I can't even believe that I ever associated with someone so freaking daft...anywho, the rest of the conversation was me trying not to piss myself as I laughed so freaking hard.

I said, "No, not really. It's just my way of saying I think Joaquin is sexy. And if by some miracle he ever happened into my little neck of the woods (YEAH RIGHT), I would love to pick his brain."

Which of course led into a whole other conversation about meeting famous people (this girl is one of those swoon at the sight of anyone famous types of girls). I of course ended up explaining that I would probably be more nervous about the fact that Joaquin is so sexy that I would say something that sounded along the lines of a school girl with a crush...but no swooning for me thanks. I would however try my best not to drool...lol.

Ok, now where was I? Oh, yeah, Micah. So Micah, my dream man, is kind of an ass but coming around. He does stupid things without thinking (you know...like any other man) and says things he shouldn't say. He is always trying to do something but ends up doing something completely different.

Detective Sherman? Don't even get me started on that self absorbed jerk. Ok, so yeah, I felt sorry for him when his sister died...and he almost seemed human for a few chapters...but then good old Hal was right back to thinking about no one but good ole' numero uno! GRRRR...

So what about Janet? One singluar peripheral character who comes and goes? I don't know her that well. But from what I've seen of her she seems like a sensible person who is in love with Micah...that's no good...she can't have him. I even thought about kicking Alexis's ass for him...lol.

Of course Katarina is a cold hearted bitch. I hate her. I hope she gets what she deserves.

Jeffery? Well, I actually feel sorry for the poor SOB. He's so f***ed up that he truly thinks he is doing something good...or not as bad as what it is. He's a real dirtbag though, and he needs to learn how to shower...oily hair = Lisa's #1 hygiene pet peeve.

There are a few other characters but these are the ones that I have heard the most. They sometimes just won't shut the heck up until I write whatever it is they are dying to say...but now that you all (a grand total of five or six people) know a little about my characters I hope you will enjoy reading my MS when I have finished it.
