Our Blog-A-Book Heroine

Our Blog-a-Book Hero!

Our hero looks like….Dylan Bruno! (And if you ever want to see this actor in action, check him out on Numbers, Friday nights!)

His name is…Luke. I love that name.

Jaxon and Caleb came in close seconds…which means, if we can, we’ll use those names for secondary characters. =).

Our heroine looks like: Isla Fisher! (If you’re wondering where you’ve seen her face before…check out the new Shopaholic movie!)

And her name will be…MacKenzie! We’ll have to see if our hero ends up calling her Mac..or Kenzie…or…???

Mia came in second…she sounds like a good friend for MacKenzie.

So, so there we have it….faces, and names for our hero and heroine!

In the meantime, don’t forget to hop over to Club Book Therapy and add your VOICE to the Inciting Incident and Lies Vs. Truth discussion. Rachel and I will be reviewing all your great ideas this week, using them to develop the spiritual epiphany, the black moment, and the story flow. Don’t worry – we’ll involve you in the process of creating LOTS of trouble for our characters. We hope to have a rough draft summary of the story up by Friday!

Which means…we’re nearly done with the discovery phase of the novel! The first chapter rough draft is taking form, and we’ll start creating next week, can you believe it?

By the way, last year we went through step by detailed step the discovery process of writing a novel on this blog. This year, we’re applying those steps, and doing some hands-on application. However, if you’re interested in learning these steps in detail, how they fit into a story, and having exercises to help you with the process, you can find it all detailed in my new writing book: From the Inside…Out: discover, create and publish the novel in you. It’s available now through the My Book Therapy Shop.
