Guess who's back (back, back), back again (gain, gain)...
Back at it again with the #2ndarychallenge let's work backwards!
Day 10: Which SC would make a bomb MC (main character)
Hands down, Sydney. She is probably the most complex character I've probably ever written. This picture is what I picture her to look like, honestly. Had I fleshed out her character first, I might have either made her the MC or her and Layla would be dual MCs.
-------
Day 9: SCs' go to karaoke song?
This one is fun
Syd: anything Anita Baker!
Noel: 90s R&B
Skyy: songs she can twerk to. ATM, since it takes place around now when they're adults, "Thotianna."
Jai: he doesnt like karaoke, but his guilty pleasure when by himself? N'Sync.
Charlie: "What These B Want" DMX (friggin scumbag)
Burt: "Layla" Eric Clapton...go figure.
Celeste: "Aicha" Khaled (no, not "location" Khaled. Lol. This is Middle Eastern Khaled.)
-------
Day 8: SCs' favorite color?
Syd & Skyy: purple
Noel & Jai: blue
Burt: black (like his soul)
Celeste: yellow
-------
Day 7: What drives your secondary characters (SCs)?
Sydney & Noel: the love of their daughter
Skyy: showing her bestie she loves her
Charlie: he wants someone to control
Jailyn: he is kind of lost and wants to find his own identity
Burt: his own selfish desires and control
Celeste: she wants a happy family, or at least for it to look like one.

Third grade name designs inspired by the magical family in the book series “The Quirks!” Erin Soderberg came through our district as one of our Authors in April and presented to this kids ✌. We are so lucky to have such an amazing experience in RCS. Thanks to my friend @dkartroom for the lesson idea! #elementaryartteacher #artteachersofinstagram #authorsinapril
Day 1 for the #2ndarychallenge #authorsinapril
(So, for this challenge, I'm focusing on Broken Melody.) Days 2 and 3 will be in a post soon. :) Day 1-Introduce your SCs.
Xavier is the oldest brother, Dante falls second, leaving Skylar last. Michelle is the youngest. She's about three years old in the beginning. Xavier is the level-headed one—he's great but he's also awful. Dante makes bad decisions. is a bit of a dick, but he's Michelle's favorite and he would do anything for her. Skylar is usually stuck in his head, his mental state isn't the greatest. He's best friends with Alana and does what he can to help her.
