I finally scripted out the events of each chapter and set out writing...one chapter finally completed...started on another and then it happened, not writer's block but loss of interest.  Thankfully I have a new found love of the book.  So I am finally going to finish it after four years.  Can you believe it!?</div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="265"><div> <B>Profiles of main characters...</B></div> <div> <B>TKF Part One</B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="7fb76650.jpg" border=0 width="118" height="101" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> Erin Cooper</div> <div> Erin is the definate main character of the story, throughout all three  parts (30 Chapters).  She starts out at the age of 16 and is kind of arrogant and mean, but after the horrid ordeal she suffers...you feel for this character in the end.<I> </I></div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="80775590.jpg" border=0 width="117" height="89" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Holly Wilson</div> <div> One of Erin's best friends in the story.  She along with some others stay with Erin during the summer.  Holly is a nice girl most of the time, but she can do bad things like stealing or what ever the situation calls for...</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="80574550.jpg" border=0 width="116" height="85" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> J'Nette Cooper</div> <div> J'nette is a definate good girl who sometimes gets taken advantage of because she isn't that smart.  She is very sensitive, but may surprise you with her strength.</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="7ff745a0.jpg" border=0 width="116" height="90" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Tim Hinkle</div> <div> A frined of Erin's since grade school, but Junior High has seperated them a bit.  They are still really great friends.  This character is only mentioned briefly and doesn't play a major role yet.</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="80972560.jpg" border=0 width="114" height="86" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Pam Harlow</div> <div> Erin's very best friend who can keep a calm head and comfort anyone when they need it.  She may be more than what people think she is though.</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="80174570.jpg" border=0 width="116" height="87" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Samantha Wine</div> <div> This character is thrown in the mix as the "nerdy" girl that nobody likes.  She is too shy and too quiet, but her temper may flare if she is pushed too far.  She is just your average good girl who sadly nobody cares for.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Part Two characters soon!</B></div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> </td> </tr><tr> <td valign="top" colspan=2 height=25 BGCOLOR="#0099CC" TEXT="#080000"> <div>   <B>Welcome to THE KILLING FIELD official web site.</B></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
