A Different Point of View?

[pattepoilue]

It would be interesting to see the point the story from Danaus point of view of course , even more if he gets drunk and laid Ahah

But i think i'd like to see this world from another species,the weres or a warlock...oh you see where i'm going don't you... Yes i'm growing a bad case of Ryanitis here... but really that would be very interesting since he's the head of Themis , and we don't know much about him... Well i'd be the first willing to read a story from Ryan point of view.

I have to admit that all this talk about Ryan has also started to pique my interest. I don't know if I could give him an entire book, but I could probably work out a short story or a novella from his POV.

Something to think about. But for now, I must finish edits on Book 4 and work on Book 5.

[pattepoilue]

the idea that you're even only thinking about it is awesome *evil grin*

[daeonica]

Like others have said, to me it doesn't seem like there would really be many options. As soon as you're in someone else's head, then things get revealed.

I'd love to see some things from Danaus's POV - maybe not a whole book, because I think that would be too... intense? Bah, I need a good word. Never mind.
Some of the conversations between Mira and Danaus make my inner fanfiction writer beg to be let out again - I'd love to explore what he might be thinking in those scenes, why he's reacting to what Mira says in the way he is... he's so interesting! And hot.

[Jocelynn Drake]

Danaus is a lot of fun and really hot. I would love to give that man an entire book, but he tends to hold things in. It's really difficult to get him talking unless he's arguing with Mira. I'll see what I can do.

[Jocelynn Drake]

So I just had a second thought. What about James? Sure, you only get to see a little bit of him in Nightwalker and Dayhunter, but he's got such an enthusiastic and optimistic outlook when it comes to the outsiders. I think it would be interesting to hear a book from his POV. Of course, I feel like my goal in that book would be to destroy his optimism..... is that sick and twisted of me?

[carnagsehls]

oka, so to write the book from Danaus' POV, you just need to have Mira there poking at him about how he can't.

as for ruining James' optimism ... go for it ... it would be amazing to read if you pull off the destruction of it, the pain and disappointment that life isn't as good as he thinks it can be.

[pattepoilue]

Ouhh i didn't think about James! Poor,poor James , i'm sure you'd enjoy torturing him , he's so willing and enthousiastic!

[daeonica]

Am I right in thinking James was the first Themis guy they met?

[darkstarpoet1]

my only issue with james is he's still really really young in comparison with his counterparts

dun forget he was still under the impression all vampires were killing machines that killed everyone they encountered and mira had to have danaus agree she fed without killing.

i guess it would be a downfall to see his views on things since he is so far over his head he'd be more of mess of jumbled up emotions instead of any clear thoughts....i mean really during the sacrifice what's in his head? "OMG WHAT THE HELL DID I GET MYSELF INTO"

not to mention in the fights he's either not allowed into or can be of no assistance and they are just doin all they can to keep them alive.

his age would still be my worse complaint since he doesn't know anything about the orgins of scarifices or anything unless that warlock ryan knows alot more than he lets on and has informed james, but i wouldn't bet if ryan knew anything he'd let anyone else know.

but yeah james is the themis librarian they met at the compound

[Jocelynn Drake]

I think you have an excellent grasp of James and many of the drawbacks that would come with writing a book from his POV. I have to admit that I would probably test him out in a short story and see how he performs before I would ever try to give him an entire book.

And because I'm an evil author.....


James has a secret. Oh, it's a pretty good one. I briefly alluded to it in Nightwalker and it will come up again in Dawnbreaker. I'm currently working on creating a scene in which the man can stretch his legs a bit.

[alicia0605]

I wouldnt mind seeing maybe a novella from Danaus' POV. A novella from Tristians POV maybe backdated to his beginning.

As far as the Books go I would like to see it kept in Mira's POV, unless you changed the books to third person. In third person you could go in any direction you wanted to go. It would just be weird in first person from anyone but Mira's POV. But your the Genius. I'm sure I would love anything you came up with!!

[Jocelynn Drake]

Genius? Now you're just trying to butter me up.

I love telling the stories from Mira's POV. Those come the easiest because I think we have the most in common and she's been in my head the longest of all the characters.

However, I think there are other characters that have stories to tell and I would like to give them their time in the spotlight as well.

I will admit that I had seriously thought about doing a prequel from Tristan's POV, telling how he escaped from Sadira and lived briefly in London with Thorne (which is where we find him in Nightwalker). Thorne was one character than came and went far too quickly for my tastes. I would like to have spent more time with him.
