A Novel Idea: 07/12/16

Happy Monday everyone! How are y'all? I'm doing splendidly, thank you. :) 

I've saw this link-up bebopping around some other blogs, and I finally decided to jump into it. Since this week's prompt doesn't involve writing (as in actually writing something), this is perfect. :D 


Prompt: This week, make a collage with pictures that describe one of your characters. You can use pictures of your character or pictures that describe him/her (or both!). Have fun with this - don’t overthink it! Hopefully it’ll be a nice break from actually writing and help you learn more about your character at the same time!

First off this was a whole lot of fun. I love making collages, and I love scouring Pinterest for the perfect pictures to represent my characters. Anyway, here goes. I started out with like 30 pictures, so be glad I got it down to these... ;)

David Carnathan, main character of War Tears. 




Bethany Carnathan (David's wife), main character of War Tears




I hope you enjoyed this little peek at my darling characters. :D What do you think of the collages? 

Thanks for reading, friends!

    3. Hehehe ;) The pictures weren't showing up very well, so I decided to make it so that they wouldn't have to be blown up so much. :P Thanks!

  3. What a cool link-up. Your collages are excellent! I am now very interested in this story. >.> War stories make me cry without the words "tears" having to be in the title. ;)

    1. Thanks, Jesseca! :-) Yes, I love that one too. I found a movie about the crew of a WWII B-17 which has been awesome for pictures. XD Oh, I just love that quote. <3 I'm glad you're enjoying them!

  5. Nice job on the collages! I've been seeing this link up popping up and I think I might have to join too! It looks like a bunch of fun! And yes, your characters are absolutely adorable. XD

    Whenever I try to find pictures for my characters, I can NEVER find the perfect ones. How does everyone else!!!!!??????

    1. Thank you, Bethany! You should! I would love to see your contribution! :D This link-up is a ton of fun. =) Hehe, me think so too. :)

      PINTEREST!! That's the only answer I can give. Pinterest. That's where I find literally everything. (Great time-waster too. AS IF I NEED THAT. XP) But yeah. Pinterest. Also, I think you can search Pinterest without having an account...I think.

    2. I don't think that I've been able to search it before without an account when I've tried. If I can talk my Dad into letting me get an account, what would I search for?

      Delete
    3. *whispers* If your Dad lets you get an account you should follow me and I will send you lots of cool character pictures. *normal voice* Not what you ask, huh? Um, you could just search for exactly what you want. Ex. "Young girl blond". Or search for something like 'character inspiration' or 'character pictures' or something like that. :)

    4. Okay, sounds good. (And I will definitely take you up on that offer if I can get an account, thanks.)

    5. Lovely! Pinterest is a lot of fun. :P

    Sooo....will we get an excerpt from War Tears soon by any chance? ;)

      An excerpt from War Tears? Hmm... *gets nervous thinking about it* Maybe I'll reveal a secret like that in the next weekly recap... B-)

  7. Ooh, this looks fun! =D I'll have to do this!
    What's your Camp NaNo profile? I can't seem to find you on there; but then again, I'm not too techy with this Camp site xD...
    Your characters are definitely darling *teary eyed*.
