Protagonist Interview

Assignment #27

"Oct. 27 - "Protagonist Interview:"

"Character: Protagonist Interview"

You are a journalist. The story of your novel is complete. Interview your protagonist and ask the following questions:
(1) How is life for you now, compared to life prior to these events?
(2) How did the events of your story change you?


(1) How is life for you now, compared to life prior to these events?

Life is nonexistent for me. I thought I was the Chosen and I was not. My sister is the Chosen. I think deep down in my guts I knew that, but I had been trained, mentally and physically since I was a kid for this moment. Unfortunately, I was rejected.

(2) How did the events of your story change you?

I learned a lot about myself. Right up to the end. I realized I was more than just The Chosen. I learned that I could be liked and desired for being something other than that. I got to see how big the world is, how much bigger than the castle or Shimmerwood it is. I got to see how difficult life is for everyone in different ways. I grew up more in those few weeks than I did before that. Even with it ending the way it did, I'd never change a thing for it.
