You can send me the rest of that case of cherry vanilla Dr. Pepper. I would drink them. Combination of all my favorites! Cherry, Vanilla, and Dr. Pepper.

But they aren’t diet. Are you sure?

I have to say, this is the strangest TT I have ever seen..


damozel on September 27th, 2007 at 1:09 pm #

I don’t think it’s strange at all; a lot of the writers post blogs about their fictional characters. I’m just wondering how you managed to photograph him if he ain’t real…

Perhaps I’ll have to do more traditional writing fare, but I liked being able to do some biography this way.

damozel, I was wondering how long it would take for someone to see #9! But the picture was easy– stock photography. I find that it’s easier to show my characters if I can find a picture that sort of fits. So, I found this guy on a stock photography site, and away I go.

what a fun list! I would mush rather have a diet coke with the donuts though!
So are you the same guy from
http://www.minthegap.com/ ???????

Well, when I wrote this I was a teenager and only liked orange soda– so somehow my lead character also got to like the same thing.

This is my blog, and I’m MInTheGap– the same MInTheGap that writes at http://www.minthegap.com . This is just an outlet for my fictional stuff– my short stories as well as some long things I wrote a long time ago.

Take a look at the link I mentioned above to see my first attempt at a novel– where the character I’m featuring today was created!

Cool stuff. I might have to check out the writings! Thanks for visiting my blog.


MInTheGap on September 27th, 2007 at 4:13 pm #

Well, I might have to thank you for checking out my writings. Thanks for “popping over” to say hi!

When I was in high school, every morning for breakfast I’d have a dozen donut holes and a Dr. Pepper. That was ages ago! Thanks for visiting my site.

[Dang]….fictional…


Gloria on September 29th, 2007 at 8:11 am #

Same sentiment as J.Lynne. I checked myself because I’m attached, but no harm fantasizing. Haha.

Are you putting your character on a diabetic fast track? Orange soda and doughnuts….ack!

By the way, you have caught my interest..


MInTheGap on September 29th, 2007 at 10:30 am #

It must be the picture!

Fortunately he doesn’t have doughnuts and orange soda all the time. I think he fits pizza and some other food in there.

I guess we’ll have to do more of these thirteens to introduce other characters!
