Story Elements Influence

     In my novel, "The Reckoning, Book 3" by: Kelley Armstrong, the setting makes a big impact on the main character, Chloe Saunders and her 3 friends. They are at a old guy's house named Dr. Banks. They are currently at a "safe house," but the are not safe. "Andrew' is the guy who Chloe and her friends thought was a good guy, but turns out to be a two-faced bad guy. So, they have to escape at night, because they are all in danger. The conflict influences Chloe and her friends a lot because Andrew drugged Chloe's friend Derek. And they can't find Andrew anywhere when Chloe's other friends Tori and Simon were supposed to put a binding spell on him and tie him up. Chloe is a necromancer, Derek is a werewolf, Tori is a witch, and Simon is a sorcerer. Everyone is stressed out and nervous because their plan is falling apart when they should have left their "safe house" already. What complicates more is that Chloe and Derek are having feelings for each other instead of "just friends." Chloe, Derek, Tori, and Simon have to leave and escape before they get taken to their enemy's lab--or killed.

5 Senses

     My book, "The Awakening Book 2" by: Kelly Armstrong, the main character, Chloe Saunders is probably an American. This book takes place in present time, so she must smell good, because there's showers and soap. And she's currently staying at a "fake" hotel. Chloe's 5" and has strawberry blonde hair with red streaks, and she always wears her precious reddish purplish color gem necklace her mom gave her when she was little. In my head, her voice sounds high but low at the same time, no accent, but she stutters when she's nervous.

Protagonist and Antagonist

     The protagonist and antagonist of my book, "The Summoning" by: Kelly Armstrong is Chloe VS. her dreams and hallucinations. I know this because on pages 1-5, there's a young version of Chloe, and her babysitter, Emily. When 15 year old Chloe wakes up, she doesn't quite remember her dream and she never lived in a house with a basement, she always lived in a condo apartment. Then in pages 10 and 11, she got a ride with a cab, she thought she saw a boy run in front of the cab and she made the cab driver stop all of a sudden. The driver, Milos, said that there was nobody there. Milos doesn't think that she's crazy, because he says, "That happens to me sometimes, especially if I'm turing my head. I think I see someone, but there's no one there." So Chloe is fighting between her dreams and hallucinations.
