Nate and Jonas

[seaofghosts]

 I recently posted a survey of questions to ask yourself about a character (locked in a private entry). This time I chose Jonas, but never finished it. Some of the questions are random but are things you could easily answer about yourself (such as past transgressions). I posted it about a week ago, and I had it in my head that the first time I did this survey for Nate was... not that long ago. 

But then I looked at the time stamp. It's been TWO YEARS. I posted Nate's version in November of 2015.

I've been working on this story for ages. It's been in my head in various forms since my teen years, but feel like it's recently taken root a bit better. I just didn't realize that I've been just letting these people bounce around my head for two years, in their current form at least. 

This journal, in general, has been around forever (four years now) but has definitely been underutilized. I'm hoping to change that.

At the very least, now there are some actual words associated with Nate and Jonas' story. I told myself I would write one paragraph the other night, and ended up writing about 1000 words or more. 

So I'm back to writing about old characters, while listening to music that I listened to as a teenager. The nostalgia is unreal.
