YA Romance!!! discussion

If any of y'all want to be named after a character in my new book, please comment now!

-Becca<3

lol that would be so cool, what is the be of the novel? if it has a title yet;) my name is Elena btw. I know I'm a little late haha but if there is still a chance I would love to have a character with my name;)
Kisses,
Elena

name of the novel* sorry I misspelled it lol

Yes, of course! I made the title "Between Us and the Moon." Hopefully there is no copyright rules for having a book with the same title as another book...

The title is so cool! What is it about?

Actually I don't really know yet...lol. I kinda just make everything up as I go along. So far there's this girl named Stella and she gets bullied at school. And there's this mysterious boy named Hayden and he may or may not like Stella. So we'll see how it goes from there. You can be Stella's best friend/supportive friend, her co-worker, her neighbor, or her classmate, or her younger sister.

This is so cool I wouldn't mind a character being named after me! If you are still naming characters either way I want to read this book!

Cool! I will add chapter one here, if y'all want to read it. Actually I'll just message it to you guys because I don't want other ppl seeing it yet. Meagan and Elena, you guys will probably appear in chapter three. What do you want your role to be in the book? I haven't really developed all the characters yet. So far I have Stella's crush Keith, the main character Stella, the main boy character Hayden, and the school's queen bee Alyssa and Stella's boss Belinda.

I'll let you pick :) I can't wait to read it!

Okay, I just sent both of you chapter 1. Also can you both comment what your character traits are, so I can get an idea of what the characters will talk like, look like, act like, etc?

Sounds interesting :)
What kind of friend is Stella's friend? I mean is she one of those friends that give terrible advice and don't take life too seriously (but in a good way lol)? I'm just asking bc I personally don't like the kind of friends that are always holding you back and saying ''I told you so''. So if her friend is the first kind, then I would love to be the friend:)
I'm also down to being her younger sister bc I am one in real life haha, but I wanna be a good sister, one that supports her old sis lol.
Either way I'm honored to have a character named after me.
Kisses,
Elena

Okay, yes Elena. You can be the very supportive best friend who doesn't take life seriously. And gives terrible advice too. She will be the kinda girl that Stella is like ugh what am I going to do with you and then they will laugh together. She is also supportive and kind of confident. She will push Stella to do some things she doesn't want to (there's the terrible advice).

Characters that are still available: enemy co-worker, friendly co-worker who kinda supports Stella and is also new to the job, Stella's younger sister who supports her, but can be a brat and annoying sometimes. She will also probably steal some of Stella's clothes. Her neighbor (any gender) who is decently nice, doesn't play a big role in the story, but will be a hero when needed to. And lastly a classmate, this person may be Stella's partner in some classes or just be a random person. I believe Stella is in her senior year. Her birth name is Charlotte Rachel Roden. She is shy, but is secretly a savage. She hates people and isn't that social. She is also smart and kind when she wants to be.

I read the first chapter and It's awesome! Really Becca it's great! I can't wait to read more :)

I'm tall (5'7) with long dark brown hair and brown hazel eyes. I like to have my nails done, just polish, though (although that is totally irrelevant :)) You will often see me in sweaters and jerseys, but I also like glowing up lol. My favorite sneakers are white boot Converse and I always have a necklace on.
I'm a nice, caring and friendy person and I love laughing. I'm also very passionate about what I love.
I act depending on the situation, I can be at times the loudest in the room or be very shy.
I hate fake people and I'm very indecissive, even for the smallest things. I can be late sometimes but I hate when others are, so I tend to contradict myself lol
Hope that's enough:)

Yes, thank you! That is perfect

Should I add myself in the book? I could be a classmate or the neighbor.....

Becca da wrote: "Should I add myself in the book? I could be a classmate or the neighbor....."

I know if that was me writing a book; I'd want someone to resemble me or be like me lol :)

Yes! you definitely should

Yes, but I always find it un-interesting if I'm in the book. Okay, characters so far: Note: I will most likely make up everyone's last name, if that's ok.
Charlotte (Stella) Roden- MAIN CHARACTER-she is shy, kind when she wants to be, situation in past shaped her to be moody, smart, antisocial (just a blurb of the characters) LOOKS: shoulder length, straight dirty blonde hair, ocean like blue eyes, petite

Becca (Beck) Quintana (not actually my last name)-STELLA'S NEIGHBOR- also anti-social, smart, kind, funny, etc. LOOKS: Short, dark brown hair, wavy too, chocolate brown eyes, petite

Elena (haven't figured out last name)-"I'm tall (5'7) with long dark brown hair and brown hazel eyes. I like to have my nails done, just polish, though (although that is totally irrelevant :)) You will often see me in sweaters and jerseys, but I also like glowing up lol.
