In fact, its wings are still quite small. But even just hatched, it is the size of a large dog. It speaks when it is in the mood and has many wise things to say. It says I need help with my antagonists. It promises that it can help me. [How does it know so much since it is so young?] [Where is its mother?] What is the whole offspring rearing model for dragons, now that I think about it?
Oh, it just said its name is, Gremflit,
and that means “green flyer.” And Gremflit says it's a...he's a
boy dragon. How does he know his name and what his name means? [Where
is his mother?] [This could get very dangerous!] Baby dragons are
cute and everything, but are they safe? I mean, even if Gremflit is
relatively safe for now, what about if his relatives show up. [This
muse is making me nervous.]
Gremflit says, “Nervous authors are
good for antagonists.”
Yeah... great...
Well, Gremflit was very effective. He told me his name one day and that night I must have dreamed
something because I woke up and most of the pieces of my antagonist’s
plans fell into place. That plan is much further reaching than I had
anticipated.
The end of my series is looking good.
Thanks, Gremflit.
Gremflit says, “You're welcome. When
is my first scene in the story?”
Um... are you in this story? [Oh! Boy!
I'm in trouble.]
Have any of you, the readers, ever had your characters do unpredictable things in your stories? I'd love to hear about it!
