Beautiful People: Marianna

Monday, February 27, 2012


 
I have a new 2012 nano. Of Metal Rainbows wasn't really working (well it is, but Marcelle just needs some more development and I need to think it through more), so I have a new one, plus a new character :)

1. If your character could be played by any actor, who would it be?

I'm not sure... maybe, hmnn... I have no idea. Perhaps Selena Gomez? 

2. Does your character have a specific theme song?


 Hit the Lights (Remix)  

3. What’s their worst childhood memory?


Getting embarrassed at her 6th birthday party by her rival.  


4. If your character had a superpower, what would it be?


Invisibility or flight. 


5. If your character crashed on an island with a bunch of other people, how would your character help the group survive?


She would probably find water or wood.


6. Are they married? If not, do they someday wish to be?


No. Yes.


7. What is a cause they would die for?

Her family.



8. Would they rather die fighting valiantly, or quietly at home?


Quietly at home.


9. If someone walked up to them and told them they were the child of the prophecy, would they believe them?


After the events of the novel? Maybe.


10. Do they prefer the country or the city?


She likes the idea of the country, but prefers the city. 

Present Tense, Stylized Lists and Other Things of Note

Thursday, January 26, 2012

       
The cloaked maiden floats through the hall, her dress, which is the color of a sky that can't choose between sunny or cloudy, trailing behind her. You can't see her face, but somehow you know she is beautiful . As she walks away over the black and white tiles, you are left alone in the grand, deserted hallways. 

An attempt at present-tense... Nah, still don't like writing it. 

Also, I noticed that Qui from Freckles and Pointe Shoes has this neat little thing where she does these type of stylized lists. I think I'll try it:

<< Loving >>

Writing
Blogging
Star Wars

<< Wishing >>

That August would come
That it was NaNoWriMo every month

<< Listening >>

Unstoppable- China Anne McClain

                                                               Hit the Lights- Selena Gomez
