Would your character have their fortunes told? Although Ash doesn’t follow any particular kind of religion, he is fascinated by the idea of fate and a big universal plan created by some all-knowing something or other. So yes, he would definitely have – and has had – his fortune read. He is very similar to

Character’s Pet Peeves Doreen Aberra is a high-powered managing editor of one of Paradiso’s major news outlets, known for her general good sense and objective approach to her work. She’s also very much a Type A personality, driven past what most people would consider sane. These traits tend to make her very particular about her

How would your characters do in the last TV show/movie you watched? Okay, so … I just watched Revenge and yeah, if you haven’t seen it, well, let’s just say it’s brutal as fuck (don’t get me wrong, I absolutely adore Coralie Fargeat’s vision and direction, but yeah, it can be triggering).

Which character has the worst luck? There is one character that I can think of that would be the best person for this question … however, if I were to answer it that way, I would give away a huge plot twist that I feel would ruin things, so I’m going to go with another

Adjectives to describe Paradiso Well, this is harder than it seems, seeing as I’ve been staring at my screen for the last fifteen minutes without any progress. It’s always easier to describe other people’s works: Battlestar Galactica is gritty yet hopeful, Buffy the Vampire Slayer is quippy and irreverent, Bob’s Burgers is wholesome and witty

Rumors in Paradiso And yay, an opportunity to talk about yet another one of my favorite characters to write: Tate Bjorge, the husband to Catherine Nzingha, whose entire outward personality is based on rumors. Who is Tate? His public face tells one story – he’s the perpetually cheating husband of Catherine Nzingha; a playboy entertainment

Birthdays in Paradiso Birthdays are … treated like they are now, I guess? But for people like Dee Manzen, they can be difficult. For starters, she doesn’t know when – or where – she was born originally, so she just goes by the date she remembers waking up for the first time: in the middle

Would your character embrace their fate or fight it? I’ve actually really been looking forward to this post because I finally get to talk about Fan, probably one of my favorite characters to write at any given time because she’s just … I just love her so much. Anyway … Fan was able to escape
