I have been bringing some of my characters in my notebook to life. This is actually a character influenced by the play, "The Foreigner." In the play, Ellard is suppose to be this timid character, whose personality is so off beat that many think him to be mentally handicapped, but in the end he redeems himself, somewhat. I interpreted the character to just be misunderstood, a twenty-something year old in the 1940's that really has no purpose in life or any great achievements. As a result, he drinks and drinks alot. Although not pieced together yet, I kind of like him this way. It shows how disjointed he is inside. I am going to play with his name so it seems like it is falling apart. Finished piece to come soon!
