What's Happenin' everyone? Blog time again! So, I've been taking a break from my New Kellendria series for some time now and writing a different series that I'm very stoked about! I thought I'd just write today about one of the strange oddities of writing. I'm sure you've all heard "the characters write the story", well, its definitely true! It's so weird to me because I'll have a general layout and idea of what happens, but since I'm mostly a discovery writer, I don't really plan in depth or anything and I swear my characters really do write the story, things change constantly. Another oddity is that I actually get to know the characters as the story unfolds. I never imagined fictional characters becoming real people, but it always seems like they start out a certain way and end a certain way. I will actually get to know them as I create them. Its so interesting. I suppose that the irony of writing. You have to create believable characters and so you soon start to actually see them as real to a degree. Guess that means it's good writing, right? That's all fantasy readers! Forrest Jones
