Kathryn Elizabeth Jones: CHARACTER INTERVIEW: Josh Summers from Crowded

Kathryn Elizabeth Jones: CHARACTER INTERVIEW: Josh Summers from Crowded: Tell me a little about yourself (where you live, who you are, what you look like, what you hope to achieve, etc.) I am Josh Summers and...

Frozen, Let it Go, Jack Frost

If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook, you know I have joined millions in loving this movie

Yep.

So, I really related to Elsa. She was trying to control her powers and I try to control My Asperger's and OCD. I also suffer from Vertigo from time to time.


I worry a lot about anything from  Hell to vertigo to whether or not someone wants to be my friend. So, Elsa's "Let it Go" by the lovely Idina Menzel has been added to my "Random Song To Burst Into" list.

I am learning more about God's love and His grace.

 A few skilled Youtube vidders made videos with "Let it go" to this handsome guy: (picture of the lovely Jack Frost I found online. I HATE winter, but can put that aside just for this fictional character...I still stand on how I feel about real life winter :P)

A few years ago, I saw the previews to Rise of the Guardians and wanted to see it, because of his own story arc that was presented in trailers.

Anyways, the YouTube videos  made me REALLY want to see it. I just love how the vidders and the movies present him as a vulnerable guy. Please type in "Let it go Jack Frost" when you go on YouTube. He was vulnerable in the movie. He wanted people to believe in him and was seen as least likely to be one of the Guardians. He learns to use his fun for good and not mischief.

It made me think of my book characters. As you may notice from my books, Facebook, Twitter or even real life conversation. I am a sucker for vulnerable males. Not wimpy males. Not weak males. Vulnerable males. The ones who are misunderstood. The ones who try to have it all together. The ones whose sadness makes you feel their pain. That is definitely what I try to aim for in my writings. I guess I could relate to Jack Frost in that I am underestimated by others and well...I like to have fun.
I also want to make a positive difference in people's lives.

I think Josh in "Crowded" and Andy in "To Be Sane" could be a bit like Jack Frost's character. What do you think? Do you think they are? Read my books and let me know.

Or do you think it would fit Kirk from "Perfect Forgiveness" more?

Read my books and sound off, please.

What love is Blog Hop.

True Love in To Be Sane

As Valentine's Day nears, we need to sit back and think about what love truly is. It does not have to be kissing, chocolate, roses and flowers. In To Be Sane, Andy Young stays by Selena Harrison's side, even though he does not quite understand her. Selena is forgiving towards Andy even though she does not understand his aloofness. What can you do to show someone you love them? The best way to love others is to be there for them and sacrifice your time/desires for them.

What Does the Fox Say?

Hello,

Thee has been a lot of observation on what I say. See, the reason I keep myself hidden  is because I rather not eat you today. Also, You seemed a little mad the last time I ate your chickens. I must go now and find myself some rabbits to feed my starving family.

Sincerely,

The Fox

Observations

A week ago, I made an observation at Starbucks. There was a group of girls sitting down and another girl around their age. She was just standing in line, but had an upset look on her face. Her arms were crossed and brows furrowed. I wonder what was going on in her head. Was she concerned about a test? Was she upset she was not with the other girls? Did she even know them? Were they potential friends who left her out?
I've been that girl. I know what it's like to be the one doing most of the planning to hang out. I know what it's like when people are too busy to hang out but would love to hang out with others. I know what being left out feels like. I just wish I could've talked to her.

This is why I want to work with teens and young adults.
