Continuing with Grizelle's story again this month as this is a great way to character and world build!
1. Which of my side characters would I like to hang out with?
Grainne. She's based on one of my favourite women from history, Grace o'Malley. Grace was an Irish pirate queen during the reign of Elizabeth the 1st of England and did not bow to anyone.
Here's her wiki bio:

2. How much do I know about the Side Characters now, before I've fully started the first draft?
I was working on Grizelle's voice and trying to figure out how she gets from where she is at the start to being a commander of a regiment. That was when I realised she needed people around her to motivate her, so the side characters began to appear in my plotting.

#WritingWonders 2. Cont.
A little inspired by Seven Samurai, Grizelle has an inner circle of confidants with different useful abilities and I have spent the last week or so trying to figure out their stories.
They all have names now, and I have a good idea of where they have come from. I'll maybe explain more in a later question!
