Let me just remind you--though you already know this--of what happened 9 years ago today. Nearly 3,000 people died in the Terrorist attacks on the United States. Let us remember and honor them and never forget them.
*moment of silence for everyone who died on that horrific day*
It seems, much to my mortification (isn't that an awesome word?), that I have terribly neglected my writing on this blog. What is the world coming to?!
I'm in the process of editing/rewriting Cymbeline (quick recap: my pirate novel) and thought it fitting to introduce you to my characters. Wait, you already met them? No, this is better than before...much better. I promise. ;)
The youngest of the three Cervantes brothers; actually, he's a half brother. They have the same father and a different mother.
Female pirate captain, hunting for gold.
Memzie put it aptly: "Hard as a rock." Yep, pretty much. At least in the first book.
The middle of the brothers; excellent fencer and rather stubborn.
The girl who shows up on the Cervantes' ship with no memory.
The oldest of the three brothers, and probably the most level-headed.
Second wife (after the first one died) to the late Gervasio Cervantes, mother to Tresalde, and stepmother to Elliot and Julian.
(And Mirriam...I used your name. I needed a name for her and yours is really pretty and fits her.:D So I hope you're not mad. She's a good character.)
Mysterious pirate captain dude who I can't even say much about cause, well, I'm still pondering him.
Did you enjoy? :)
There you have it, an updated cast of Cymbeline. And yes....no Isabel. She no longer fit into the story. Saphira had kind of taken her place, and that's alright with me, since I like Saphira better anyways.
Have a good one (and a rememberful--new word--one) my lovelies.:D

I found that poem on Shaynie's blog and think it fits Saphira perfectly.:)

You do know that the person you put as Miriam isnt the same in each picture. Those are in fact completely different actresses, even if they do lplay in the same movie.
Love the characters!

It's sooooo hard to believe that Sept. 11 was NINE WHOLE YEARS AGO!!! I remember the day so perfectly....I was 10. It doesn't seem like that long ago.
But anyway. I loved seeing all the characters of your book! I would love to see more about it. Perhaps excerpts? :)
Milisande--yeah, I know, but I liked both:). And they do look kind of similar, at least to me.:D
Shaynie--I know!!! I don't remember it perfectly-I was a few years younger-but I do remember sitting on parents' bed for most of the day just watching the tv. I have some excerpts from this on the writing blog, under "Caroline's writing." But i can post some more!:)
I remember how big of a deal it was too, though I hardly understood. But I knew it was serious, and I had a relative who worked in one building that came down.
I love your characters!!!!!! I think Saphira is my favorite :) I'm planning on writing a pirate novel next as well :) Pirates are just great.
Ellyn--Yeah, I think I was the same way. Oh no, were they alright?
Thanks!! It was fun to put together. Saphira is my favorite, too, not in just in the pictures but in my book:). Ooo, I can't wait to hear about your pirate novel! I agree; pirates (in booksXD) are awesome.:D
Oh, I loved meeting all your characters, Caroline!! I'm thinking about doing this on my blog, for one of my books. But, I'm not sure. :)
Love,
Eldarwen
Thanks, Eldarwen! I'd love to see you do it!:)
Cutteeee girlie!!!!!!! I loveee Harry Llloyds casting part. Those pictures really DO portray him as stubborn *recalls him pushing Djaq into a closet...* Good times :) Also, I think the actor you have for Finna was Holly Jay in Degrassi, though I could very well be wrong.... well... biya!!!!!!
Molly--I should've known you would:). Yep, good times indeed my dear! Haha that always makes me smile!!XD Degrassi? What's that? Probably a show I should know about yet don't...;) (if she looks familiar it's cause she's Mary Jane in the Spiderman movies.)
Oh wow- this is my dream post! I love hearing about others characters, and I am really liking your wonderful people. Especially Stefan. :)
OK, I'm new to your blog...is this JUST a book? or is a movie too? sorry if this is a stupid comment! :-/
Yes, I know this post was posted...forever ago, but I *had* to comment.
Your.Book.Sounds.AWESOME.
