205

I wrote that many words today. I hope to write more. I hope that they come out right. I'm terrified with every single word I write down that it will come out wrong. I keep second guessing myself. I need to do some writing exercises to get back into it. Have any ideas?

Also, in case anyone was curious, it does start with 'Once upon a time...'

More Milo!

Hey look! I did something just like I promised! This isn't very interesting though, because the answers don't vary. Though I've realized I want to do a series of posts about Sirens.

Relationships

1. Describe this character's relationship with his parents. 

Non-existent. He doesn’t know much about either of them and he basically raised himself. 

2. Does the character have any siblings? What is/was their relationship like? 

Also non-existent. They were all fending for themselves and Milo had very little connection with any of them. There was a total of five kids. Two of them did stick together, but the rest went their own ways.

3. Are there other blood relatives to whom he is close? Are there ones he can't stand? 

Nope. He’s always flying solo.

4. Are there other, unrelated people whom he considers part of his family? What are his relationships with them? 

He has a few people that he ‘trades’ with or gets information from. He has various connections in most villages and cities, but they are few and far between. None of them truly trust him and he doesn’t trust them either. That is the closest he comes to relationships.

5. Who is/was the character's best friend? How did they meet? 

He doesn’t have a best friend. The closest he has or will ever have is going to be Julian. 

6. Does he have other close friends? 

None.

7. Does he make friends easily, or does he have trouble getting along with people? 

He makes enemies everywhere he goes. Friends are nearly impossible to come by for him.

8. Which does he consider more important: family or friends? 

Himself. He doesn’t think that family or friends are trustworthy. He never had a reason to believe them.

9. Is the character single, married, divorced, widowed? Has he been married more than once? 

Single. Never married.

10. Is he currently in a romantic relationship with someone other than a spouse? 

None.

11. Who was his first crush? Who is his latest? 

His first crush was a Phantom (one of the three ‘species’ of Siren). He didn’t know she was  a Phantom. He hasn’t had any crushes lately. 

12. What does he look for in a romantic partner? 

If he’s looking for something, it’s purely physical, but Milo is too easily driven by money, so any kind of romance is just background noise.

13. Does the character have children? Grandchildren? If yes, how does he relate to them? If no, does he want any?

None that he is aware of. 

14. Does he have any rivals or enemies? 

Uhhh, I’d love to give you a list and/or description, but the list is too long. 

I Keep Lying to You!

Okay, not totally lying. At least I am posting daily to let you know that I am alive. I was supposed to have more Milo stuff for you, but I don't. There is a long section about relationships that I'm not really finding inspiration to answer. That and dinner is calling... so is Repo Men. I'll let you know how it goes. Have a great night and I WILL talk to you all tomorrow!
