Well, in the past I've started three or four other stories, but got stuck or realized that the stories weren't structured enough since there weren't any plots for those. Finally, I decided, "Okay, if I really want to finish a story I'd better start with an overall plot, otherwise it's like building a house without a blueprint." =P So... I'm sticking to this story until it's finished.
I'm certainly glad to hear that you found it interesting and entertaining enough to read through. =) Thank you. I'm always glad for compliments, too. Part of the reason the story is hard to write is because I do try to imagine details about the society and technologies being used. Every so often I get motivated to write quite regularly on the story, but of recent it's been slow going, to say the least. I can't say when there will be much more... But when it's done or when there's a good deal more, I'll be sure to let you know. =)
Hmm ... let's see. Looking at the list of personality traits, I'd say that Chad is like me in that he's:
* opinionated (me to a lesser degree) * determined (much of the time) * enjoys challenges (um... mostly) * thoughtful and a philosopher * a romantic (I'm going to make him more so than me, I think) * emotional * friendly (certainly like to be, anyway).
Some of the other traits may fit me to a lesser degree.
For Tom probably these fit the best: * a melancholy and phlegmatic (exactly =P) * introverted (somewhat more than I'd like to be).
Other similarities are that Chad was a programmer and dreamed of being a policeman, and Tom disliked city and saw the value of evangelism. There are probably other finer points of similarity, but I think that covers most of it.
Yikes! All of that was about me...
Well, I think you'd do very well at writing a novel, though I haven't heard any fictional writing of yours. What kind of things have you written about? =)
