Tell Me About Your Hero

So what does your hero or heroine look like. Are they tall or are they short? Are they fat? Skinny? Muscular? Did you model them on a movie star? A rock star? A writer?

My hero is a jaded, womanizing alcoholic whose world is turned upside down when his 'case' turns out to be a half-breed Lonegal-Human with a heart of gold. Ravaged by punishment because of a crime she was driven to commit out rage and grief my hero must figure out how to get her out from underneath the charges without causing all out war to breakout between the Lonegals and Humans all over again.

Here is what my Bounty Hunter looks like. Sexy right? Well I'm writing a sci-fi erotic romance. Lots of hot sex and political intrigue. Just did a chapter away from the main couple but it was interesting and I think it added to the main plot of the book. Hey, when in doubt, add a subplot and a character. I thought the characters I'd added were just walk on parts. But hey shows what I know. I'm almost halfway done with my story, but don't worry if you're not. Go to the http://www.facebook.com/February50KBlowoutChallenge page and upload photos of your heroes and heroines. Tell me about your stories and let me know where your word count stands at. I'm at  22,253. But even if you've only got a couple of thousand or a couple of hundred words to your name that's better than the 0 words you had at the beginning of this journey. Remember, you can do this, you can hit 50K if you just keep plugging along.

I know you can all do this, I believe in you!
