Someone Mentioned that they make Candy dolls of all their characters to help remember what their appearances look like. I thought it would be fun to try that. Also, since there is some confusion about heights, I put everyone in a police lineup. Have fun guessing the characters :D

The dreaded homonym
I have found so many misspelled words in the last few days. All of them were homonyms. Today's culprits: It's instead of its; exercise instead of exorcise; and waste instead of waist. Oh, I almost forgot, you're instead of your. FAIL FAIL FAIL!
In honor of my failings, here are a list of the most common misspelled homonyms.

Just got a request for a partial!
Sent out some queries today. Had an agent request the first 3 chapters. Yay!!!! They responded within an hour of my query too. Put me in a good mood for the rest of the day.
