Spend the Day with Your Characters!


If you could bring to life a character from one of your stories and hang out with him or her for the day, which one would it be? Why? What advice would you give them?Include name, personality traits, etc.

That's tough - I want to meet them all! Great question!!! Probably Jack. He's gorgeous, English (think Hugh Jackman), rich and hilarious and is in love with the mc. Unfortunately for him, she's happily married. I am, too, however... (wink*wink*!!!)

Tough question. Where's YOUR answer? :D

I would probably choose Jesse from my first novel. When you read it you'll understand. I'd pick his brain on how he managed to rob so many jewelry stores and get away with it.

He has red hair, he's sweet and intelligent, and he saved my hero from making a huge mistake.

Debra...I love British men too! *sigh* Very lucky to be happily married! ;-)

LG- Somehow I knew I wouldn't get away without answering. I would spend time with Kate...so I could tell her that she really needs to grow up. John is my dream man!Can't wait to read!

From my work, I would like to spend the day with Alan Radford and just let him talk about his life. Being a lonely person he could do with a good friend.

I'd probably hang out with Lucas. He's another one of those hot british leading men. Very kind and a bit tortured with some way cool skills.

I'd love to hang out with my MG main character, Belle. I'd give her a hug and tell her everything is going to be OK. Sometimes I hate torturing them!

Traci said...

Martin - Sweeeeet!!! ;-)

Lois - sounds like someone I'd date! LOL

Beth - ever the teacher! ;-) I am the same way!

Bowman said...

Perhaps I would most want to visit with Astanax from Time Prism. He's in need of someone who can understand why it's not always fun to be royalty, and why he's still distraught over his mother's death and the disappearance of his love interest.

Physical characteristics: Half-elf, ~5'10", ~195 pounds.

Justus...his name sounds like a medication! ;-) I am always amazed at how Sci-fi and fantasy writers come up with such creative names.

That is tough. I love all of my characters in that I'm their author and they fascinate me and make my stories interesting. But if they were corporeal and hanging out with me for a day...my easy answer is Kobos, the gryphon prince from my first novel, because he's kind and intelligent and it'd be cool to hang out with a gryphon.

But if it had to be one of my human characters..hm. This requires more thought. Can you RT a blog post? And by that I mean, can I borrow this topic for my blog?

Traci said...

Sure you can borrow it! :-)
