Meet The Characters Behind The Story!
Book characters are similar to real people. Some you meet and connect with instantly. Others you get to know over time and maybe a few glasses of wine. Then there are the few that turn you off from the instant of introduction.
When I sat down to write this blog, I tried to come up with a clever and safe way to introduce you to the main characters of Revelation without spoiling their stories.
After racking my brain, I finally decided the best way to get to know them would be to hold a Q&A regarding their favorite things.
Following each character’s answer, you’ll see an author’s comment. A little unknown fact about either the series, or the character that only the author knows.
Their answers (direct from their mouths) are below. Enjoy!!!
Question and Answer Session with Revelation’s Main Characters
None of the answers the characters provided are spoilers for the book series.
