Y'all I have a problem. Well, it's not really a problem, but I need some advice on what to do-
          	
          	For one of my upcoming stories (which will probably be posted in 2019) I created a few oc's (original characters), and I named one of the characters after a close friend of mine. The only problem is that I feel like I'm not good friends with that person anymore. We barely talk, and sometimes I feel like they avoid me. It upsets me because I'm trying my best, but I think this person doesn't like me anymore. At least, they don't like me as much as they used to. 
          	
          	So now, whenever I go back to read some of the chapters I've written, I feel sort of sad. I don't want to publish the book and then have this person completely hate me and decide to fall out with me. On the other hand, I feel like this story is a tribute to them and I'd like a character to be named after them. 
          	
          	What should I do? Should I change the name of the character or keep it the same?

As in, if you actually want to change it

Change to a new name with a related meaning to how you feel to her

@FayeTheFab I'm assuming that if the story's a tribute to this person, it's going to be a 'good' story for the character (as in, they're not going to get tortured and die two pages in)... If so, then the reaction to the story can only be positive, surely? (Especially when you take the quality of your writing into account!)? So I think you should keep the name of the character the same, because it may well end up fixing the problems you are having with them now, not make them worse. However, if it would make you feel better, then maybe change the name whilst you're writing it, and then fix it when you proof read it or something? I know writing is a very difficult thing to do at the best of times so if what you're writing makes you sad then I reckon you should rectify that as a priority - at least for the time being :)

@SheMarvel2010 Hi, thank you ever so much! Right now I don't currently have plans to write anymore Mako Mermaid stories. I don't have the ideas, and it's been so long since I've watched the series. But I really do appreciate you reading my stories and enjoying them, thank you ever so much! :D <3

Hey, I really liked your love love Reunite story, I was wondering could you do a sequel about them being pro idols

FayeTheFab

@Daggersenpai Hi, I'm so glad you liked it! I'm not currently planning on writing a sequel, but muse will appear in the Aqours's story when I publish it– although I'm not sure when that will be :D

Besides my friend, you're the first writer I'm following here! Your love live reunion story is amazing. It honestly reminds me of watching the anime again!

@FairyIdol Am I?! Wow, thank you so much! I'm really glad you're enjoying my Love Live story too! It's probably my favourite book I've worked on :) <3
