Okay here's my suggestions:

Jack Pierce
Abel Manning
Griffin Sheppard
Kellan Dunbar


Literary Chanteuse I like the suggestions above by A.F. actually.

I'll include my suggestions which are based on people I knew who fit the photo/character descriptions

Beth Bishop
Abel Grant
Cass Griffin or Lance Griffin
Kellan Olivier
Jack Murray

Grace (fictionaladventures) | 56 comments Okay, guys. I'm trying to work on my characters for my second book - I had totally forgotten how hard it is and I need some help. I'm going to post their pictures, first name, and brief personality and I need you guys to suggest last names for me!

Jack (short for Jackson). He's an artist (he paints). He's quirky and comforting, pays close attention to detail. (Also considering using this picture instead: (view spoiler))


Abel. (Some last names I've considered are Brent and Lanning, but you can certainly suggest different ones) He plays in a band and writes the songs they play. He doesn't seek attention from people and he's understanding.


Griffin. He's a sweet guy who plays guitar on street corners.


Kellan. Basically the bad boy. Lead singer in a band (same band as the one Abel's in). Runs track.


***Also, this is my main character, Beth Ollis. In case this helps with choosing the other guys' names:



With all of these, I'm extremely open to alternate first names also, if you don't think the one I have right now fits. Any suggestions would be helpful!

Thank you guys!

Grace (fictionaladventures) | 56 comments Ok, so I'm reposting Like The Stars because I'm getting ready to write my next book and I want critiques on this one first so I can incorporate what I learn from LTS into my next book. I want brutal honesty in all the comments. Also, it's completely unedited so don't critique line by line, please; I just want big picture critiques, like comments on what works or doesn't in a character, in a scene, in the plot, things like that. Thank you guys so much! It's much appreciated! (Comments on the story please, not here)
