Alas, I feel I have failed her....

My book character, that is. One that shares a fake name with me. Or, no... Alice is my fake name, but it's her real name. And I have just realized that she will never fit into being a full-length novel. She's destined for life as a novella. Or, for those of you who are like "wtf is that?" an epically long short-story that's cool enough to be a book but totally not long enough. The story isn't meant to be fleshed out that much. If I added much more to it, do you know what it would be?

90% fluff, 10% plot... No one wants that. So, my dear character, you're stuck as you are. Oh, well.

Love,
Alice (the person, not the character)
