Guess That Character Blogfest Day 2

*But before we begin, be sure to visit Matthew Rush's blog today for my guest post! He is the most amazing blogger and has been ever so generous with his comments on my query letter! You simply HAVE to check it out! Thanks again Matt!!

And now it's time for the big reveals. I can't wait to see all of your wonderful characters! I am a wretched guesser, but this blogfest has been so much fun! I would like to extend an enormous thank-you to the wonderfully awesome Jennifer Daiker for hosting such a phenomenal event!


Now without further deliberation here is Anna...
I absolutely loved all of your guesses! And for those of you left hanging, Anna does die (a horrible death on her seventeenth birthday) but is brought back as a Fury. Furies are marked not only by their beauty, but their brightly woven hair. Their purpose? To ensure that no other humans fall prey to their same fate...so yeah Anna is a petite edgy little huntress with fiery red hair, green eyes and skills with a blade like you can't imagine!

So how did you do? There were two guesses that were pretty much dead on since I know I didn't give you much to go on. So mean of me I know! But Clara and Hanna way to go!

Thanks again Jenn! I look forward to seeing all of the intriguing characters that everyone has created!

Oh no, I missed it! I'm sorry, Thursday was just too busy for me to visit more than a few entries. But I did enjoy yours, and that hair is rockin'! That right there is a true redhead. ;]

Also, thank you for offering your guess for my entry and for following my blog! It means a a lot to me. :)

I love the look of her! She's exactly as I imagined after reading the snippet below!

Vicki Rocho said...

You got me on this one. If I had thought "fury" I would've connected with red hair. Ahhh, well. It's good for me to be WRONG sometimes.

Thanks for the query reminder. Got so wrapped up in the blogfest I kinda forgot the rest of the blogosphere was still marching onward. I'll head over there right now...

Wow - very interesting and beautiful. I'm sorry I didn't get around to guessing yesterday.

Hanna C. Howard said...

Yay! I got it! What an intriguing idea: I love the concept of Furies. And, being a redhead myself, I have to favor Anna's haircolor. Love it!
