Tuesday Tales: Andyrsn Takes Over!

Happy Tuesday. Can you believe in 3 days, it will be JULY?

For the past few weeks, I've been blessed to have many questions to answer for my characters from my blog mates. We're coming down to the last ones that I've received so far, and I hope once I build my momentum back up, others will visit and ask questions, too.

Heather Holden asked a list of great questions, and today, we'll be revisiting Andyrsn to learn more about his love of pranks.

For Andyrsn: Have any of your pranks ever backfired on you? Has anyone ever pranked you?

Hi!

Ah, well...they can't all be jewels. My friend Donovan and I were great at herding tiny animals into things. This one time, we got these water beetles into a crate. We thought it was impenetrable...It wasn't. We had to go back to the temple for lunch and ended up needing to leave the crate in the woods. On our way back, all we could hear were some little girls screaming their heads off. They'd been playing on top of the crate, and one's foot went through. The beetles were all over them. They're harmless, but little girls and bugs don't get along often, you know? We got the switch to our legs when Donovan's mom found out, and then she sent me home to my brothers, and I got the switch again.

My nieces are turning into little pranksters. I've come home to a lot of my clothes turned inside out or gone to leave and my boots were filled with honey. When they get older, I'm gonna be in trouble. Couldn't be more proud.

Next week, we have one more question for Brodie.

Tuesday Tales: Ghuli* Takes Over

*This post occurred before I changed Ghuli's name to Jonnie*

Happy Tuesday!

So a while back, I opened up this day to my characters to answer questions from readers, and people are giving me some good questions!

Heather Holden, creator of one of my favorite comics, Echo Effect, asked a few questions for each character, and this week, I'll let Ghuli return to answer Heather's question for her: "What is it about the forest you find comforting?"

Here she is to answer!

What is it about the forest? I don't believe I have ever stopped to think of it, really...Did you ever have a place where you felt as though no one could see you if you hid in just the right place, or a place where everything felt as though it were in perfect harmony? In the forest I can rest in the willow branches, swing among their switches, and when the wind blows just right, I can listen to them breathe. It may sound strange. Howbeit, the forest has a way of making me feel...like nothing could ever hurt me again.

Thanks for the question, Heather!

If anyone else has questions, keep 'em coming! It's really helping me get into my characters' heads. :)

Tuesday Tales: Cyan Finally Has a Break

We're back to Tuesday and giving my characters some time to speak for themselves. Laris has Ghuli* for the day, so we have a moment to ask Cyan all the questions we want.

Well, at least three. lol

Heather Holden and Sheena-kay Graham had questions for Cyan, so I thought I would let him answer them. Thanks, ladies!

*sigh* Hello, Lady Heather, Lady Sheena-kay.

From Heather: What kind of relationship do you have with your half-brother, if any?

I don't have one at the moment, but I would like to meet him one day. When the metal army attacked my town and killed my parents, Grey had recently become Commander of The Council and was across the continent, so he didn't even know I had survived until after I left to join Sir Aleksandyr. I believe they traded letters for a time, howbeit. So as I said, I would like to meet him one day.

From Sheena-kay: What kind of trouble has the princess caused Cyan and what are his favorite hobbies?

Teorre, where do I start. When we were children, Ghuli took it upon herself to climb the white willows of Snow Hill, which she knew to be weak. She tried to jump from a branch to grab one, and it broke off instantly. She fell twelve heads and was fortunately only shaken up; howbeit, I heard an ear's worth from Sir Aleksandyr when I brought her home crying her eyes out.

The others act as though I do nothing besides watch Ghuli. She and Laris know full well I like to read. Laris bought me a copy of his people's entire history when I turned seventeen. 'Tis nearly twenty books.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have plenty of questions left from Heather that my other characters will answer over the weeks, but please feel free to keep asking questions! This linked link here has tidbits about my characters which can help you think of something to ask them. :)
