Interview with your Action Hero

I want to thank James Bailey and Debbie Wickham for covering my classes this week while I am out of town.
We are starting our action novels this week; we are going to move slowly so that everyone will have well developed characters and a plot before we actually start writing the story. This week everyone interviewed their character, if you student missed class, please have them answer these questions at home: (their character should be around their same age, same sex, human or humanoid)
