Feature & Follow

"Feature & Follow" is a weekly event hosted by the wonderful Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. It's a way to meet other bloggers, make new friends, and get new followers.

To learn more about this event and for the rules, simply click the button below.



Q: I like unique names for characters and am looking forward to coming up with some when I start writing. What's the most unique character name you've come across? 

I cannot think of too many names right now, but I do like Avari from the Soul Screamers series. It's not that unique, I guess, but I hadn't heard it before. I also love Sodapop and Ponyboy from Susan E. Hinton's "The Outsider". Those are definitely names you don't come across every day.
 
 
This is my first time participating, and since I'm still new to blogging, I'm really looking forward to meeting fellow bloggers.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

  14. Hi hi! Good choices! Avari is especially unique, it reminds me of Inar 'Abhen by Melanie Nilles (another odd one I forgot about).
