    The main character from this particular story is also the author, which allows me to see exactly what he looks like. He has glasses, average sized, hair not too dark, light brown I'd say. as stated in the book he is very stubborn and rebellious resulting from his difficult past. Now he is very cold hearted towards people who try to get close to him because it's hard for him to love, even though he i s a good person and helps other kids out who are in the situation he used to be in. He still feels alone and abandoned even though he has many friends and a gilfriend because they will never substitute the love his mother shoulod have, but didn't give him.

    The main character in my story is tall with black hair. The main character, Charlie, always thinks hes crazy because he sees glowing red objects when other people don't see that. Also, my character recently found out that he is a helper of Death.

    The author told me that Macy is the type of girl that keeps to herself, she doesn't have many friends, but she did have a boyfriend that broke up with her through e-mail. She acts like nothing bothers her when it really does, she doesn't tell people her problems. She feels saddened and over whelmed.
