Do go take it, I'll wait. Back? All right - who did you get? Let me know in the comments. I ... don't personally remember who I got, as I took it several times to test out the options. I know Robin and Doranna were frequent.
Also, I have a quiz on goodreads to test your knowledge of Sew, It's a Quest. It's actually a year or two old, but it's still good. I meant to do up a quiz for Take, but didn't get around to making it. Let me know how you score!
And now to the fun stuff!
As some of you may remember, back when I published Take, I had a mad-lib as part of the party, and it was a smashing success, so I'm going to do it again this year. Just comment with words to fit the quota, and tomorrow I'll put up the post with all of your versions of the snippet I've chosen - have fun with it!

My stops on the tour today are:
Singin' My Own Song: Guest Post - Writing Tips - Which actually turned into a post on how NOT to write a book. I have no regrets.
Rivershore Books: Character Interview - Arthur - where Arthur invites his interviewer to a ball.
And Sew is no longer free (though it's still only 99 cents, as is Kingdom), but there are three other books that still are!
Haha, I got Robin! I was NOT expecting that!

Eh...also Robin. I notice a theme here. (And I haven't gotten very far into Sew, but I've already gotten the idea of Robin's personality...I don't know, I don't consider myself a violent and wild person. But I would be dancing at the ball, despite shyness--because I love dancing. And I do act before I think...)
ReplyDeleteAnswers:

Hmm ... everyone seems to be getting her. I wonder which questions are tilting in her favor (I'm suspicious of the Disney movie, dream prince, and possibly the animal questions, because the good answers tilt towards her ...)
DeleteBut Robin isn't really violent, though she'll make threats, actually, she's terrified at the thought of drawing blood. She is VERY active though, and the sword's her sport of choice.
And actually ... by female I meant a title girls get called, but ... I can live with what you three have given me. It'll certainly be amusing!
The first time, I got Serendipity.

You as Rosamond amuses me for some reason. Might be your username.
DeleteAnd I might, at some point, go back and edit in your response. I need to organize some things first, but I love your answers.
Erm, ignore my previous comment in this post. Didn't see this until time was already up. I'm such a dork. :-P
