MGR: Protagonists
Protagonists. Specifically, my protagonists. What to say about them?
I have a few I like. Let me introduce you.
- Inuit (pronounced Eye-knew-it). Inuit is my female polar bear character, and she’s telling her first person account of what her life was like as she transitioned from a wild polar bear to a polar bear living the American human lifestyle. Inuit has learned a lot during her journey, and she taught her author a few things as well. Her story is nearing completion, and I hope you’ll find her journey as interesting as I have when she’s finally ready to share with the world.
- Jeff Forrester. Jeff impregnates his high school sweetheart during their first year at college. He successfully convinces her to have the baby she does not want and turn the baby over to him. They break up, and Jeff raises the baby. They meet again years later. Can they resume the relationship they both wish had never ended, or is there too much baggage?
- Harold, Charlie, and the Freakin’ Geeks: This elite cyber team searches and destroys cyber criminals determined to wreak havoc upon the nation. They’re also a bowling team.
Those are the protagonists from my first three draft novels. They are likely to be the first three novels I revise for publication — Polar Bear on the Loose, Inuit’s story, is nearly complete.

Your characters sound great. I do not know if you have read Cat’s “Paralan’s Children” or not, but she uses bears similar to polar bears in that their natural habitat is frozen in a very imaginative and unique way in a sci-fi fantasy environment. It may well be one of my favorite books ever.
I can’t wait to read your stories.
I have not. I’ll have to look for it (I need to read more of Cat’s work than I have so far).
Picked it up last night.
Your elite cyber-crime-fighting bowling team sounds like tremendous fun to me. Looking forward to it very much. (The others, too!)
All of those stories sound fantastic. Good luck on the publications.
Thanks, Connie.
