Character teaser: Hunter

Ok, here is our last character, Hunter.

This character is Mad Hatter meets a lovely sweetheart.  He is as crazy as a fruitcake but knows when things need to be done, he will be the one to do it.  He met Raine at a yongue age and became firm friends. He has taught her howmto swim, archery, he is her guild throughout the land and protects her in his own mad way.

Hunter is by trade a hunter..........of pom-poms.  He heard from Raine about pom-poms that cheerleaders use and decided from that day on they were a menace and needed to be caught and placed in a muddy puddle.  Of course he has never caught any because they are not in his world and no real threat, but he doesn't know that.

 Hunters best friend is Cat, he lives in his field in a treehouse decorated with ribbons he finds during his hunts.  Hunter is also a good friend with the King Jerrad Firefly, although Hunter is younger than the king they have many conversations on things such as the other realms, the citizens and of course those dreaded pom-poms.

This character will be my most challenging I think, I have never really written with a mad character, I want him to have an air of madness but also that protective, sane side for Raine.

Well, next I will explain the realms and the royal families that go with them.

Only three days untill nanowrimo

Character teaser: Auran

Auran Firefly isnthe brother of Jerrad the king of the Earth Realm when Raine first visits, he started the war years before her visit and devastated the Kingdom of Life. The Kingdom of Life is the fifth realm, the throne was empty as a child of Life had not been born.  (I shall explain how the realms work in a few blogs time.). Auran decided that he could not reign over the lands he would destroy them and he started with Life.
It was then the King and Queen of the Earth realm, Jerrad's sister and brother in law, decided to fight against Auran.  Together the four realms joined and fought back Aurans fog and sealed him on the island that was once the kingdom of Life.
Auran is only able to break his seal when Hunter and Raine travel to his island, this releases his fog and slowly he tries to complete his original desire.  To rule the entire land.
Auran is a bitter character, he feels he was cheated as his parents over looked him and gave the throne to his sister.  It is a tradition that the Realm of Earth will always be rules by a female unless no female heir is born.  This started Auran's desire of war.

Auran is a character that is mostly mentioned, he makes his appearence as Hunter and Raine are about to bind their hearts and soul in marriage.

Well as I always say, I can't give away too much or it will ruin the story.  Auran is the bad guy, as they say, so he is the threat although he's not really in it until the end.

Tatty bye my lovies where I will give you the last character tester.......Hunter!

Character teaser: that crazy wizard Cat

Hello again bloggers an reders alike,

It has been a few days I know and I'm sorry.

Well here is the taster of Cat as promised even though it is a little late.  Well, as the title says,he's a crazy, wizard Cat.  Funnily enough he is a Cat, he lives in a field and tends to the grass, flowers and whenever a citizen needs a potion he brews it from ingridiences he frowns in his back yard, which just so happens to be the entire field.

He is warm and fuzzy, he does not like to act as a feline, he enjoys brewing a potion that makes him stand like a man, wearing a suit and top hat.  He has always helped the royal family.  Cats age is unknown as it is very well known that his field has some kind of protection from time. No one is sure how he done it, only the citizens of that rhealm may enter the field.

Cat is a great ally to have, he is loyal and quite sensible, at least when compared to Hunter.

Of course I can't give away too much about the characters or it will ruin the story :-)

Character Teaser: Raine

The lovely Raine, the heroine of the story.  

I realised one day after a talk with my brother, the main hero of my novels are women, I do have males as sub characters but the main character is always a woman, even with 'To Waltz with Shadows' I think Nightshade is a real lead role besides Snow of course.

In this story there are four lead characters, Raine, Hunter, Cat and Auran, now Auran is the antagonist of the story, that's bad guy to those who don't know, he's not really in it much, he is mentioned a lot during the story and this builds him up you see.

Raine is a young woman attending school in this world, she is very quite and secretive.  She doesn't really spend time with her peers during or after school partly because she has no desire to but main because of her aunties and Louie.
She lives with her aunties and a man called Louie, she has always been told,her parents were killed in a war and the four of them took her to safety deep in a valley town.
Like most of my femail characters she has a very unique appearence, her hair is red like fire and she has one blue eye and one green eye. I also noticed a theme with my femails, they have strange eyes, Kayleigh-Lou Nightshade has the change of colour to red whe she uses her dark magic and Nightshade has purple eyes.  I do like fantasy for this reason, the strangeness you can.
When you read this story you will understand why she has strange eyes, there is always a reason for the eyes, it's. It just personal preference, with Kayleigh-Lou it's her magic and Nightshade it represents her tribe.
Raine has always felt sheltered, she feels that her aunties and Louie shelter her from the world, they never really let her go far and this results in her lying about where she travels to.  She is not a grumpy character but it can come across that way at times, deep inside she is warm hearted and full of love.  Sometimes she is very serious and thinks too much about things that could easily be shrugged off or taken in the moment.

All in all I am very much looking forward to writing with her, she will be very secretive and hold many surprises.  I hope you like the sound of her, and I hope you are looking forward to the next snippet of character info. 

Next is that crazy, cool character.  Cat.

Tatty bye.

I'm back.....whoohoo!!!

So. It's a day late but dim finally back and the blogging can truely begin.

Well, as I said, I will write as much as I can as I write the 12 novels, first of all is Nanowrimo novel, 50k in one month.  This year I will be doing yet another fantasy genre, yes I know, for those of you know me I do love writing fantasy novels.

I do not have a title just yet, I think when I start writing  it a title will come, maybe when I finish it it will come. Mwho knows, I really like this story, it starts off in the 'normal' world and of course takes place in this world and another.  It does have an area of romance because I do like the strife of fighting for someone you love, to do things to help those in need but also for the one you love. Arr! 

Inhave just decided that the next blog I will introduce one of the characters, just to wet your appetite, then another, I think I shall introduce four of them, Raine, Hunter, Cat and Auran. The lovely Raine will be first, the heroine of the story.

So, I shall log off now and come up with something to wet your appetite 

Until next time.

Tatty bye

November 1st novel number one

I got the idea for this novel from a dream, you see, most of my novel ideas come from random parts of dreams I remember. I never remember the whole dream, or maybe I do, who knows with dreams right?

All I remember from this dream was I was younger, I lived in my old grandads house with three aunties and a man called Louie, I went to school but ran away to spend the day with Matt Smith.  We went to an abandoned theme park and we play.  That's about it, so from that I drew up a story and I liked it so much I'm going to turn it into a novel.

Now, I have others planned out from either ideas or dreams fragments, some are good, like one I decided to call "25 things to keep you unhappy.....forever!" It will be a story or sorts, like a diary from a really miserable person, a comedy I hope.  
Another story will be adventures of my little boy, a story just for him, little adventures where he makes friends with friendly boats, mummies and saves the day with the help of his friends.  Something he cane have whe he's older.

Unfortunatly I have to off line for two weeks, I'm changing my provider to wifi :-) so please bare with me.  I intend to update daily once the challange has begun, to let you know what I have done for that day and how the story progresses. 

Well I hope to see you soon once my internet is back up and running.  See you on the 15th October
