Okay, she asked us to share what our characters would want for Christmas. I decided to gather a few of mine together to ask them. Introducing Jonathan, Tamara, and Trevor :)
Me: So, Jonathan. What do you want for Christmas this year?
J: Well, I'd really like to find out where my parents are.
Me: (shifts uncomfortably) Um, what else?
J: I guess if you're lookin' for an answer that doesn't make anyone all uncomfortable and crap, I could use a good pair of running shoes. (smirks at Tamara who rolls her eyes.)
Me: What about you Tamara? Anything you want?
T: (chews the inside of her lip as she lights a fire in her palm.) Nothing.
T: (glares at me.) No.
Me: Okay...well, that leaves you Trevor.
Tr: (leans forward, eyes light up as his lips spread in a wide smile.) Metal Gear Solid Rising. Ah, man. I want to get my hands on that game so bad!
Me: Do you think your wife will get it for you?
Tr: (laughs) I guess if I'm on my best behavior, like no more PMS jokes and pinchin' her butt in public, yeah...maybe.
J: (nudges Trevor in the shoulder) You'll never make it. (shakes head and laughs)
T: I agree. You're better off buying it yourself.
Tr: Or you guys could get it for me. Now you don't have to fret over what to buy me!
Me: Before we wrap up, Tamara, at the risk of getting fireballs thrown at me, are you sure there's nothing you want?
T: (sighs and gives Jonathan a tentative stare) No. I already have everything I want.
Me: Thanks everyone! And thanks Sarah for such an awesome giveaway!!!!

Haha. As one of your CPs, this should totally go in your manuscript. It's perfect. Displays their personalities spot on :)
Ha Ha! This cracked me up! Very creative. Now I might have to ask my characters what they want for Christmas. :)
This was so much fun! I could really tell the personalities that your characters have.
ahaha!! I love that you do this!! I interview my characters all the time. Lol. Thank you so much for visiting my blog! :)
What a fun thing to do. I listened to a recent writer interview and she said that during her characterizations she like to be sure the list each character's most important item as that will tell a lot about him/her.
Wow, you guys are fast!
Kelley: Thanks so much! I'm trying to think of a good place to put it in there, lol.
Crystal: Oh do it! I'd love to read it :)
Jenna: Thank you! I had a lot of fun writing it, and I've spent A LOT of time with these guys, lol.
Ashley: I love interviewing my characters! I haven't done it with these particular ones, so this was a lot of fun!
Donna: Oh, that sounds like a good idea. I'm totally gonna do that!
Funny! Your characters totally come alive in that exchange - great job.
I seem to have totally not see this blogfest. Or if I have, I can't remember. But this post was awesome! I could do with a character interview.
Good timing, thought. I just started a blog hop today. :)
So fun :) Did you do these pictures?
Melodie: Thanks! :)
David: Lol, I almost missed it myself. Lots of blogfests going on this December, I'm a bit surprised by it actually.
Angie: No, one of the girls in my neighborhood does anime and character art and she offered to draw a few of my characters. I've got a post with Carolyn and Shawn too on the blog somewhere, lol. Casting Call i think is the title for it. :)
Fun giveaway! I want to be married to Tr. He sounds like fun. : )
HELLO. Voice, funny, and GREAT writing. Sorry had to say that. This is awesome and WHO drew those pics for you. I love them.
Loved it! Hope you win something good!
Emily: Ya, I totally based Trevor off my own hubby. Lol.
Jenny: Ah Jenny! You always make me smile :) :) And a girl in my neighborhood drew them. She's awesome right?
Sarah: Thanks! I hope I do too, lol.
That was even more fun cause I know TWO of your people :D
Loved that conversatin with you in there too :) Tamara's answers could be the best, she would totally throw a fireball at you! Too bad that heat can't defrost her a little bit for Jonathan's sake :)
This is awesome. Thanks for this :)
Also..for Christmas, can I just throw fireballs?
Jolene: Thanks! It was a lot of fun :)
Hope: I never thought about the connection with her ability to control fire with her frosty attitude. I love it!
Lynne: I'd like to throw fireballs too. Or ice, like in X-men!
