📝 Counting the Snowflakes ❄

NICKNAME CS. 

       I’m thrilled, and I certainly hope you are too. 😀 So, let’s get on to the technical stuff, the character stuff, and then a HUGE announcement! YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SKIP THROUGH THE OTHER STUFF. OKAY? Let’s get going!

PicMonkey Sample

Plots//Setting

         My basic idea for the plot is this –

Ten years ago, thirty children of various ages were captured from their home in Snowcrest and brought to Captive Cabins in Icewynne. Now, they get a chance to go home through a competition to create a gift for the king. But – there’s a catch. Only one winner will be chosen, and ten losers will be executed.

So, I’m terrible at writing blurbs – literally terrible – but I guess you got the idea? I guess? 😛 That’s basic though – there’ll be plot twists and deaths, and-and betrayals, I guess. Am I spoiling too much?

 

      The setting has quite a complicated geography – basically, it’s set in the world of Westwyren which has four empires based on seasons that include Winterspell, Springside, Summerdale, and Autumnmoor. Each of those empires has two states – Icewynne and Snowcrest, Roseglade and Spiritbrook, Shellshore and Tidalday, and Mapleglade and Skyhaven. I may have run out of fantasy place names. XD

 

Characters

        I decided to take the personality test for all of my beloved charries, and actually, as I’m writing this, I’ve only done it for Wynde. XD *rushes to 16personalities.com*

DISCLAIMER: All pictures are from Google, and I do not own them in any way. Credit goes to the owners, thank you! 

wyndetta-snowdust.jpg

Wyndetta Snowdust

     Wynde is an ISFJ, which honestly suits her perfectly. 😀 She is 82% introverted, 61% percent observant, 96% feeling, (wow!) 67% judging, and 79% turbulent. Gee, we’ve got some pretty high stats. :O

       This makes her supportive, patient, reliable, imaginative, hard-working, practical, shy, sensitive, reluctant to change and hides feelings. She’s quite quiet, not really one to strike a conversation, even with somebody she knows. Bashful, she’s not willing to receive attention, and therefore *spoiler alert* is quite vulnerable to plagiarism *spoiler end*

       Her eyes are mood rings – they change colors depending on her emotion. Blue for calm, green for happy, hazel for sad, brown for anxious, and gray for tired. She is seventeen years of age, having been captured when she was seven. She always liked fixing things – whether it be a loose bolt or a broken soul. She’s also Korean, and overall, I’m really going to enjoy doing this character!

Cierra Snowelle

Cierra Snowelle

      Cierra is solely based on Tess from when we were both bored and were talking in the chat room she created. Cierra is an ENFJ – just like me! 😀 She’s 53% Extroverted, 56% intuitive, 56% feeling, 65% judging, and 74% turbulent.

      She’s reliable, altruistic, charismatic, has natural leadership skills, outgoing, sensitive, over idealistic, indecisive, and doesn’t have extremely high self-esteem. She would like to believe that she’s a rebel, but in heart, she’s really more of a rule-follower.

       She has central heterochromia – just like the real Tess – which means that her eye has an inner brown ring, and an outer green ring. She’s fifteen, and regrets doing not much with her life before she was captured, even though she was five. That’s because she was born having really high expectations, and I’m really excited to write her out!

Lyla Snowbird

Lyla Snowbird

      Ah, my lovely Lyla. She’s an ESFJ – what I used to be – and honestly, I adore her. She’s 85% Extroverted, 80% observant, 71% feeling, 88% judging, and 74% assertive. She’s so nice and practical, yet she’s wonderful at understanding people.

       She’s loyal, sensitive, warm, a connector, practical, worried about social status, doesn’t like improvising, too needy, too selfless, and vulnerable to criticsm. At first, I thought she would be an ESTJ for sure, but now that I look at it, she’s definitely not.

        She’s of Indian lineage, although races don’t really exist in Westwyren. 😉 She is my mature girl of eighteen, and loves her family dearly, especially her sister Vivi who was captured with her. She’s petite – sturdy and short, just like a…short tree? XD But eek! I’m so excited to write her out because she has a really cool…oops!

Aria

Aria Snowdance

       My little happy birdie! I’m sorry, that was weird. XD She’s an ENFP at heart – 100% Extroverted, (WHAT?!) 58% intuitive, 74% feeling, 89% prospecting, (that’s a change) and 68% turbulent. She is most definitely a social butterfly, yay! They’re so fun to write. 😀

      All those extroverted traits make her curious, observant, energetic, great communicator, very popular and friendly, has poor practical skills, has difficulty focusing, emotional, and gets overstressed. *hisses* SOCIAL BUTTERFLY.

       She is Irish and “fat.” Yes, she has an accent, which I very much need to study…I just for some reason really wanted to make somebody Irish. 😅 She is sixteen – a year younger than Wynde, and extremely tall. I’m going to make a plot twist for her. Wait, why did I say that?

Classic-Taper-Cut

Ixon Snowdark

       So, Ixon may or may not be my favorite character. XD I’m sorry, but he’s so emotionally messed up and hardened on the outside that it’s just…GONNA BE SO FUN TO WRITE. He’s an ISTJ, with traits of 88% introverted, 65% observant, 82% thinking, 82% judging, and 68% turbulent, surprisingly.

          He is honest, direct, dutiful, strong-willed, responsible, practical, creates order, a jack-of-all-trades, stubborn, impulsive, judgemental, is always by the book, and blames self unreasonably. See, see? Isn’t that JUST SUCH A FUN PERSON TO WRITE??

         He is Chinese, (buddies!) and has…um…you can see the picture for yourself. 😛 He is lightly built of medium height and is hardly ever seen to smile. He is hard, Wynde is soft, they are lovely together. AHH, I AM TERRIBLE AT NOT SPOILING MY BOOK.

vivi-snowbird.jpg

Vivi Snowbird

      Guess what? Vivi and Aria are twinsies!! She’s an ENFP too but is 97% Extroverted, 63% intuitive, 85% feeling, 89% prospecting, and 54% assertive. That’s weird – I thought for sure she would be turbulent!

       She basically has the same traits as Aria, but she’s a lot more mischievous, and ten times more energetic, although you couldn’t really call her hyper. I think personally she’s quite mature. XD But…she does like to get into trouble occasionally, although she’s so nice and smart she’s never caught!

         Well, since she’s Lyla’s sister she is also Indian, and I call her smile sarcastic, simple, and sassily sweet. XD I am actually SO excited to write her – she’s so much fun! She’s only eleven, so she’s still short, but already almost as tall as Lyla! She wants to catch up to Aria, although still a while behind. XD

Orin Snowluck.jpg

Orin Snowluck

      More twinsies?? Orin is an ESFJ too! But he is 60% Extroverted, 55% observant, 72% feeling, 60% judging, and 63% turbulent. He’s the easygoing guy that never gets ruffled…XD

      Well, you’ve (assumedly) already read Lyla’s profile, so basically all her traits with a dash of never. Ever. Ever. Ever. Ever. Ever. (Okay Enni, we get the idea!) Getting mad.       It sometimes annoys Aria and Vivi who want desperately to annoy him but always fail. XD

        He’s Spanish, and he befriends Aria quickly when they were all first captured. He also becomes like a brother figure to Vivi, who loves to tease him. However, he always takes it so calmly, that she always, always is teased in return without Orin meaning to. XD

       Now, for the moment you’ve all been waiting for …*drumroll* the big announcement! Yes, I’m going to make you scroll through lots of dots. No, I am not evil. Actually, I kind of am…XD

🎆 Watching the celebration of…congrats! You’re there!

 

CS is getting ALPHA-READERS.

   How it will work is that you can sign up using a form I will attach later, and then I will send all of you the current document. Every week, I will send you an updated document, and you must have your feedback by then. If you miss it, no worries! Just remember to do it next week! I will send the first draft on March the 2nd, 2018.

        I am mostly looking for feedback on realism and sentence structure, no typo/spelling/grammar corrections please – I can fix those on my own, just the things that are harder to see. Here’s the form!

 

   THE DEADLINE TO SIGN UP IS MARCH THE 1ST!

 

   I’m SO excited, and I hope you are too! Don’t forget to signup, and have a wonderful day!

Lend me your ears

Did you sign up? Are you excited? Do you like writing?

Sing of

  2. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!! This sounds SO EXCITING!! Although, not as exciting as Madi’s book (no offense). BUT STILL SUPER COOL!! I’m almost, almost more excited about this than I am about The Incredibles 2. ALMOST. They’re about the same.

    Okay, now I’m just rambling.

    1. I do watch a lot of movie conspiracy theorists on YouTube, though, so you might find me overthinking the smallest things. 😉 I think they rubbed off on me.

      1. Hey, when exactly will you be sending out the document every week, though? If it’s on a Sunday, I won’t be able to get to it until about lunchtime, if not at all. My church is AWESOME and has both morning and evening services on Sunday, so as you can imagine it can get pretty busy.

                    2. OOH, I’VE HEARD OF DREAMLANDER BUT I HAVEN’T READ IT.

                      Definitely the Bible, The Anne of Green Gables Series, The Little Britches Series, and The Green Ember Series. Oh yes, Madi’s WIP is SO awesome.

                      By the way, sorry I wasn’t on last night. I forgot it was Wednesday. We have what some people call “midweek service” on Wednesday nights at church. So yeah, church 3 times a week. XD That’s why my church is so awesome.

                    4. Cool! You should use it! I use it some. I’m writing a story called World of the Future on there, but I don’t know if you’ll be able to find it yet since I just revised all of the chapters, and they have a moderation system. But look for me! My username is MollyKayKay.

  4. Nice plot line Enni! I don’t think I’ll be able to alpha-read….sorry. I’m really busy with school. I hope that by the time summer comes and I have more free time, I can BETA-read though!

  5. I LOVED reading about your characters, and it sounds like a great story! I’m unfortunately kinda too busy (with moving :/) to sign up for the alpha reading, but I hope you get a bunch! 😀
