Day 47

Some good progress today! I wrote a small chunk of chapter five, and I got to introduce Marcus! Here is a small bit for you to read. This is how I've described Marcus. Feel free to let me know what you think! Positive and negative is all great for me!

Looking down at her was a man's face. He had a pipe sticking out of the corner of his mouth and a dark blue cap on his head. His face looked like it had seen better days, with weathered, cracked wrinkles snaking through his complexion, and a rough grey beard across his jawline. Despite this, however, he had the kindest dark blue eyes Rosehips had ever seen. They were the kind of eyes that couldn't lie to you, even if the mouth was. They were the colour of the ocean at night, but they weren't at all as cold.

There he is! I won't dare draw him because I have such a clear image of how he looks that I wouldn't want to ruin it by drawing a terrible picture! Besides, I'm sure you can imagine him, too.
