Howdy everyone!
T-minus 12 hours till it begins! I don't know about you, but I'm pretty stoked.
So I have realized that giving a face to my characters helps me get to know them even better. So I kind of sorted through various actors and actresses and picked the ones that have the look and mannerisms of the characters in my stories.
Here's my list:
Ellie: Kirsten Dunst
Kevin: Kevin McKidd
Ian: Gerard Butler
Emma: a younger Abigail Breslin
Sean: James McAvoy
Aimee: Emily Mortimer
The characters in my book are all Scottish with the exception of Ellie, which is why there's a lot of Scott's in this list.
Who would you cast as the main characters in your novel?
