Lani’s story is about Zel and Con:
Here’s Zel’s character page:
And Con’s character page:
And the Prince:
Now hie thee to the Lucy March blog where they’re posted with thumbnails so you can see them much larger and where she has posted the rough draft of her first scene here (scroll down to about halfway through the post).
I cannot wait to read this story.

So if Krissie is retelling Cinderella’s story and Lani’s got Rapunzel, that leaves you with Little Red Riding Hood!
Please do something awesome with the wolf, like 10th Kingdom-esque (a mini-series from 2000 that the three of you should watch together, given the theme of your book- so much fun!)

Krissie brought us the Tenth Kingdom DVDs but we haven’t watched them yet. I have to get my own view of the wolf before I can see anybody else’s.

10th Kingdom is wonderful. Cheesy, yes, but I still adore it. If you sit down to watch it, make sure you either have the full time to devote to it or have two afternoons to split it up over. If you like it, you won’t want to turn it off. I second the appreciation for the wolf’s character, and Dianne Wiest is great as the queen.

10th Kingdom is fantastic, and I don’t think that wolf is anything anyone wants to recreate or imitate. The stuff he does is…not heroic. Not romantic. And yet Max from Gilmore Girls totally pulls it off, that bastard. It’s only when you turn if off that you’re like “Wait a second, he’s a JERK!” I don’t think watching it will influence you, but it WILL suck a huge amount of time from your life.

When the three of you are finished with your current books and are starting on this collaboration, do you think Fairy Tale Lies will have it’s own blog, like D&G?
On February 27, 2010 at 5:04 pm Jenny said...
It might. The plan this time is to take our vacation month–mid July to mid August–and Krissie will come here and the three of us will do a truck draft together. So we might just blog here and on Lucy March. We already have four blogs among us (Krissie has two) not counting the defunct D&G blog, so I’m not sure.
Of course we already have one set up, just in case, so . . .

And there we have our problem. Robert Downey Jr would never feature as a hero for me and I don’t know that I could overcome my revulsion enough to enjoy the Con character.

He was the placeholder for Davy Dempsey, too. VERY inspiring.

Does that mean there were collages for Faking It? Can we see them?
On February 27, 2010 at 9:26 pm Jenny said...
Nope, the first collage I did was for the copy edit of Bet Me. There’s been one for every book since then.

Ok, I’m off to reread WTT and FI with this new… inspiration.

Robert Downey, Jr. – it’s true, most people don’t have the resources to try re-hab over and over, but I’m glad he kept at it. When his probation was over, he wasn’t allowed to jump into major roles. I think the money mavens were justifiably worried that he’d relapse and so in his first few movies (mostly forgettable) he had to pay his share of the film’s insurance tab. He made it through and, so far as I know, is still clean and sober. Not to mention freakishly talented. I’ve never had his particular addictions, but as a guy who took 11 tries to finally stop smoking, I can sympathize. Hell, I sympathize with anybody who’s trying to kick any bad habit since the quitting thing rings the bell on the Suckometer. I don’t know about gorgeous, but Marly says he is. Of course, she says the same thing about me so I might question that except other ladies here seem to think so, too. About Robert Downey, I mean. Gray in the whiskers, go figure. Anyway, the hero thing. I don’t think facing down some demons should be a sticking point. Hey, one man’s opinion.

Also, Sherlock Holmes is fantastic. Lani and I are going to go see it again, and not just for the scene where he’s handcuffed naked to the bed, either.

Although that was a wonderfully… inspirational scene.
/sigh
Off to clean mango bits off the kitchen floor. Apparently Angus and Emma like mangoes.

What?1 I was gonna see Avatar, but now that you mention it…I think we’ll have to see Sherlock. Ooh wee, I think he’s a sexy hero! Loved him (and Val) in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

“…and not just for the scene where he’s handcuffed naked to the bed, either.” LOL. Well, I must admit that’s enough motivation for me to see Sherlock Holmes. Plus I find Jude Law ridiculously sexy…

RDJ is perfect as a placeholder: he comes with his own personal demons. Isn’t that part of the hero making in most romances?

I agree that Robert Downey Jr. is a perfect placeholder. I found him sexy and very appealing even in Iron Man… I’m not certain, though, that the hero must have personal demons exactly. He does need to have depth and vulnerability. I recall Jenny mentioning at a book signing event that partway through Welcome to Temptation she added the character Dillie because Phin was too perfect and lacked vulnerability. Him having a young daughter gave him the perfect degree of vulnerability.
