Second assignment- Character

1. In my book right now, there are about 5 main characters. My book is one with about 4 different sub plots that lead up to a huge plot. The first main character's name is Stu Redman. He is a more quiet man but if he needs to be, he can be very asertive and firm. Right now he's in the hospital and wants answers as to why he's there but noone can tell him. All they say is that its top secret. The second main character's name is Frannie. She's about 21 and is pregnant but not married. She is rather quiet and most of the time keeps to herself and has never really had many friends. At this point in the book, she's learning how to tell her mother things that she's never been able to tell her mother. She's always been closer to her father and was scared of her mother. The next character is Carla Goldsmith. Frannie's mother. This person is a frightening, down looker at Frannie. No matter what she does, Carla always seems to find something to yell at Frannie about. Even if it's not Frannies fault. Carla is very degrading and controlling toward the family she has left. Then, theres Mr. Goldsmith, he's a very loving dedicated father toward Frannie. A few years ago, they lost thier son Jason, and now Mr. and Mrs. Goldsmith have very different views on how Frannie should be dealt with... He is a very laid back person and he's also very understanding with Frannie and how she is to be raised and treated. Unlike her mother, he is kind and respectful towards Frannie. The next character is named Nick Andros. He is a deaf-mute boy who is about 22 and has grown up on the streets. For work he wanders from town to town offering help anywhere he can. He's a very generous man and will do anything to make averyone else happy. Now there's the sheriff. He reciently died of a cold, but he was a very good man. He prosecuted his brother-in-law for almost killing Nick. He took good care of everyone that he could, and was not a selfish man by any means.
2.The character Nick and I are alike in some ways but also very different in some ways. We are alike in the sense that we both had to grow up fast and we are very outgoing people. However, we are different in the sense that he is a deaf-mute, and is a male.
3. In my book I am Nick. I see that the town is slowly dying and noone knows it yet. I can't hear anything because I'm deaf. I smell the autumn breeze thats steadily blowing the disease around this small seemingly vacant town. I can taste the eggs and bacon that I'm eating as well as the dust of this jail. I feel scared, frightened and worried. I have no idea as to why so many people have died in the last two days and its putting me at an uneasy pace.
