Callie has been a hard nut to crack.
Callie: I heard that.
Seriously, she’s not the easiest character to work with. She’s stubborn, and that isn’t even the right adjective for her. She’s had a lot of false starts and has morphed and evolved over the years since I first started this series several years ago. I always knew she’d be a hard-ass, but I had no idea what I was going to do with her once it was time to give her her own story.
Here’s the conversation I had with her as I pulled up her notes this morning:
Me: I hope you’re ready for this.
Callie: There’s nothing you can do to me. There’s no way in hell I’m going to fall in love like Grace and Tory.
Me:Oh, you will.
Callie: Anyone you give me, I’ll make them suffer.
Me:I’m aware of that, however, everyone has one man that brings them to their knees.
Callie: If he’s lucky, he’ll still have his knees. Seriously, Rae. Give it up.
Me: *rubbing hands together* I found the perfect man for you.
Callie: You thought that before and then I chewed him up and spit him out for breakfast. I hope you prepared him for his funeral.
Me: I knew I had to come up with someone better than an accountant. So I did.
Callie: I’m shaking in my boots.
Me: Mock me all you want.
Callie: What did you do?
Me: :happy0194: What is the worst thing I could do to you?
Callie: You wouldn’t.
Me: I already did.
Callie: :finger:
:thanks: Ginger. I just hope she doesn’t kill me.:chair:
OOH! I cannot wait for this one… Love her attitude already… :happy0194:
:cuckoo: Speaking to voices in your head now Rae? Seriously? You know thats a sign of a disturbed…hang on, Mickey’s bugging me…*whispers* just give me a minute Mickey. I know the honeymoon trip to Hawaii is still in the air. Just give me five minutes, would ya? Ahem…as I was saying:happy0194:
:yahoo: Love it! Happy writing!
Huggles,
Donica
:thanks: Leslie. I hope you enjoy this one as much as you did the other two. Yeah, yeah, come get the other one and then you can tell me if you enjoyed it.
Donica, :weee: Yuppers, I always talk to the voices in my head. I even got a hoodie that says: “I get paid to talk to the people in my head”.
