Re: AMEN, Anneza
in reply to a message by Phyllis
Thanks for your input, but I do think about my characters before I even write the story. These are the names of the characters that I want to be in the story, but I wanted opinions from other people about their personalities. I already have some ideas, but I wanted other suggestions to have the story be about characters from all different backgrounds. You know what I mean? I don't want you guys to write the story for me, I just wanted ideas. Sorry, for any anger or disturbance I caused. Forgive me.

One thing about names...
Just because someone has a particular name doesn't mean s/he has a particular personality. For instance, two famous men of the same era shared a first name: Adolph. One was a comedian (Adolph Marx, aka Harpo), and the other was Adolph Hitler.
Work with the names you have, then let your target audience determine how they will react to the people. You can always change them during the rewrite stage (which NEVER ENDS.)
