My Next Book?

    Don't tell me you thought it ended there? Ha ha! Nope. The life of a writer never ends. I still need to edit the thing, have some proof-readers edit it, and then comes the actual publishing. This is mostly editing, reading, waiting. Editing, reading, waiting. Then just...waiting...then comes reading the published book.
 My Dad's gonna put the first copy in those little plastic holders and lock it away so no dust or daylight or finger prints get on it. And if it becomes a movie, then a video game, Dad's gonna play the video game. I don't want it to be those puny,  PSP/DS games. Hell, no! I want it to be PS3 or Xbox. Or, if it's there at the time, if it's ever made at all, the PS4.

    Point is, I still have a lot to do before that book is published. And me, being as inspirational as always, decided to go through my old ideas. What my excitement was when I found a very old project called, "Rice Bridge and the Black Rose Children", started about three years ago when I was in Grade 6/7. Oh, how I remember how I came up with the idea.
 If I am to tell you just how I came up with this idea, I have to go back about...hm...approximately five years, when I was nine. I believe I was in Grade 4. Trust me. This is going to be a long story.

    Back in Grade 4, I discovered video editing, particularity AMV-Making (Google it), and I wanted to show my videos on Youtube. So my Dad got me a Youtube account so I could post my videos. A little while in, I discovered how to make Youtube Series without having to act. To put it simply, I would put pictures of the characters, usually Anime characters, and I would write their line in the script over top of it in a certain color.
 I came up with two Youtube Series; "Trunks and Goten" and "WND: Welcome to the Narupokeball Z DigiGalaxy". Give me credit for the second title: I was nine. Later on, it's name was changed to "WND: Welcome to the New Dimension".
 Since the first one has nothing to do with the story, I will jump to WND. You will have to understand WND before you can under "Rice Bridge and the Black Rose Children".

    WND was a Youtube Series based around many video games and Anime, mostly "Dragonball Z" and "Parasite Eve 2". It was originally supposed to star [kid] Trunks from Dragonball Z but the protagonist later changed to [teen] Gohan. The second leading role went from Goten from Dragonball Z to Aya Brea from "Parasite Eve 2".
 Remember Aya Brea. She's actually a huge, important character as to "Rice Bridge and the Black Rose Children".
 Anyways, it was about all these Animes going into reality and they have three months to get back home before they are trapped in reality forever without anyway to get home. Gohan leads the team of Animes, with his new friend, Aya Brea, to help defeat the bad guys, defeat NMCs, and go home.

   Now. Many of you are wondering, "What the hell does this have to do with your new story, Richard Sims and the Sack Toes Chimera?" Well, that is another long story all on it's own.
 I guess I'll start with how the storyline was created.

    WND was about Animes getting trapped in reality, no? Well, I sat down one day and went, "Well, what would happen if they DIDN'T get back home? Then what?" So, I randomly thought, "Gohan, Trunks, Goten, Eve, and Aya would start a club and they would protect the people in reality." Then I came up with the Black Rose Children.
 The Black Rose Children would solve crimes and leave behind a Black Rose every time at the solving sight with the captured criminal. I thought, "Hey! This idea would be awesome as it's own book!"
 I decided to go with the ideas.

    In WND, Gohan and Aya had a very...interesting relationship, lets say. They tended to be very powerful partners, always watching each others back and finishing each others sentences. Joking around with "adult jokes". In other words, very out of character.

    This is how the relationship between Rice and Aya was developed. See what I did there? I only took the name I swear. Only the name. Everything else is different. I wanted her to be blond, though, but I felt like that was too much so I made her have black hair.
 Like Karlyn.
 Anyways, this is sort of how Rice and Aya's relationship was created, however it was more mother-son type of relationship, like that of Dallas and Karlyn but more...eh, how do I say this? Rice and Aya have much different personalities than Dallas and Karlyn, so I supposed more..."jokish" would be right.

    There is a bit of a back story behind Rice's name in the book and in real life. Super long story short, Gohan, in Japanese, means Rice. In other words, I was very unoriginal with his name, too. Bridge is from a city I passed while visiting family up North once.
 As to everyone else's names, Delilah, J.J, and Cafe...Well, Delilah was originally named Eve after Aya Brea's sister (btw, my Aya, her last name is Row), but I decided it was too much and renamed her Delilah, because it was the first name that came to mind and I just couldn't label her with any other name.
 Like Molly, I didn't like Delilah's name. But it just...stuck, you know? No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't name her anything else. It was Delilah and Molly. The funny thing is, though, Delilah and Molly are the same person, just different appearances. Well, that's a lie. Delilah and Molly are only alike in the way they speak, with the kind, soft voices and manners.
 Delilah likes to fight and Molly doesn't. Delilah is blond (I needed a blond in there, for no reason), Molly had brown hair. They are just...different, okay? I will spend all night trying to find three more reasons how they're different and I'm not in the mood for that.

    ANYWAYS, there is a lot new things in this story; J.J is my first salty, which means he has white hair. Rice is actually my first male leading male character, when all my stories are put in order from oldest idea to newest. Aya, Rice, Delilah, and Cafe were all inspired by other characters. This is the first and only story written in first person. This is my first and only story not a fantasy, but rather an action-drama.
 "Rice Bridge and the Black Rose Children" is one of my most unique stories of my collection and I think writing this will be a great idea.

     One last thing I want to talk about is Cafe, Rice's little brother. As sweet and harmless as he is, Cafe is going to be, by far, the best "little kid" character I'm ever going to create, not including Devin. Cafe will have a very interesting back story and side story to the whole thing, which I'm thinking of writing first, so I can add it in later, because his side story is the most powerful part of the entire story.
 That is, not including the preface.

    I will leave you with one final part, the last few paragraphs of the preface:

    "The Shochi are stupid people.
 Stupid, evil, bloodthirsty people.
 Hm.
 Humanity is the only evil thing on this planet.
 Aya says I'm deep that way. Leaving people with disturbing, painful thoughts. I don't see how this is deep, though.
 It's the truth."
