Hello bluesky! I'm a hobby artist and aspiring writer. I read mainly weird fiction, horror, sci fi and romance. I'm working on my debut novel (Romantasy with a poly endgame). I love folklore, giallo, cats, and spend too much time playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly.
They must have The Correct Name or they aren't Real. But I have had placeholder names sneak up on me, too. It happened with my OC Anubis. But I also kind of hate my inability to break my 'true name' rule because sometimes I accidentally name an MC after a popular MC I didn't know about ...
Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters
Writing technical question!
Do you name your characters right away or do you use placeholder names?
Are the placeholders descriptive or just filler names you'll change?
Has a placeholder ever grown on you?

Finally read ACOTAR and was surprised that I liked it as much as I did but I couldn't care too hard about the main love triangle because I was too distracted by Lucien existing.
