I have no interest in sports but I'm not nerdy (actually, that depends on your definition of nerd) and I can talk to girls easily (most of the time) and I am not clumsy.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Well, I've seen guys being ostracized as "nerds" for not liking sports, receiving above-average grades, being shy and/or reading for fun - in any given combination of these.
And the clumsiness refered to the *feeling* a shy person gets when s/he approaches a taxing situation. That uncomfortable sense of self-consciousness.

I recieved a 2/5 on that. I dont like sports, My grades are mediocre, I'm quiet but not shy, I enjoy reading (albiet, maybe a little too much.) and I can enter a taxing sitaution calmly and confidently... Ah, who an I kidding, I cant go up in front of the class but its mainly becuase I didnt do my work on time. Hey! theres something, we practice procrastination like its the law.

Little Jo,
If you're looking for places to get published online, be sure to check out AssociatedContent.com. It's a great site with a great community of writers. I write for them and have learned so much, while also blowing out my online portfolio. I usually earn $3 to $15 per submission.
Hope you check them out...

hmmm, the "handshake" would be nice, I think I'll use that. Though I've never seen it done. His parents aren't really divorced, but they're not getting along very well. But they aren't protagonists, so it doesn't really matter.
Here's the background kinda for him. It's changed alot so far
Name: Derek Frost
Gender: Male (duh)
Age: 15
Appearance:
Stands 5'6", has dark brown skin, dark brown eyes, black hair, short eyelashes, normal (as is average) stature.
Personality:
Likes to read (I had to have him like to read, it seems so logical) play video games, watch soccer, and other stuff that I'm not yet sure. I can't decide though if he should be loud or quiet, shy around people. I don't think so, because ALL of my characters tend to be as I am. I think that he will.....or won't. I also can't decide on what his habbits should be. Like you said, should he talk really fast, really slow, should he bite his nails? Like I said, he's a flat character. I also haven't had much time to work this past month. But one of these days I'll put in something I've written and see what you all think.

I was thinking, maybe I'll change the whole setting and put it back in the 1700 or 1800 hundreds. It might make more sense, but it might not. Or I could compleatly change the story. I'm only about 15 pages in, so it wouldn't be that bad.

Hah hah! Just add glasses to him and you'll have described me to a ! Flatness can actually be a good thing. Make him so inconspicuos that when he does something major or out of character, it'll be a suprise to everyone.

Well, I might do that, but right now he is flatter then a ran over pancake stuck to a wheel. So I think I'll blow him up a little.

Pancake stuck to a - wait, what? Hey, make him into a chef! The Pancake Master! Or waffles, or omlettes, whatever floats your boat.

Not doing, when I have more time, I shall type up the two different stories with the same character. Being a chef doesn't really work, but maybe.... actually it might. But that might be to much. Maybe he'll help the cook or something. But I've got about 5 minutes tonight, so it'll have to wait.
