Abigail is a new character who will be introduced in As Fairydust Settles. She plays an important role in Davey and Mical's lives.
Name: Abigail Trenket
Age: 24
What book/s are you in? As Fairydust Settles
Where do you work? I don't work...I stay home, and cook and clean.
Where do you live? With my husband of five years in a small town in Wisconsin: Diamond Bluff.
Favorite place to relax? In the basement, making jewelry. I take most of it apart once it's made, so I can reuse the beads. I just like making it.
What is your favorite food to eat on a bad day? Who doesn't love chocolate?
What's your biggest regret? This is going to sound terrible, but...jumping into marriage. Nineteen was too young for me.
What is your preferred method of communication? (Face to face, letter, phone call...) Face to face, while holding a warm mug of hot chocolate, and leaving open the possibility of hugs.
What Fruit of the Spirit is God working on you the most in? Oh, that's a hard one. I think the one He's focusing on now--or perhaps I should say the one that I'm focusing on--is Peace. He's helping me be at peace and content with my situation and the results of my decisions.
Questions courtesy of Emily. Thanks!

Character Interview: Jonathan Benson
Name: Jonathan Benson
Age: 22
What book/s are you in? Shrouded Jewels and As Fairydust Settles
Where do you work? I'm a tutor at my college.
Where do you live? A suburb of Minneapolis, with my father.
Favorite place to relax? Up in a tree.
What would your dream job be? Something where taking things apart to see how they work would be part of my every day duties. Engineer? I don't know what engineers actually do...
How do you get along with your Dad? Mostly, we try to avoid each other. It's pretty easy in a house this size. We get along okay when we do talk, though.
Do you play any instruments? The guitar, kind of.
Describe a typical day in Jonathan's world. Oh, boy. Let's see...get up, make breakfast for Dad and me, and leave his outside his office. Then run back downstairs so I don't have to see him...haha. (Kidding.) Study, head to class, come home and study or cook more. I'm so boring. I like the days Davey comes to fix the security system... I help with that sometimes.
And finally, are you hungry? Always. Are you offering to feed me?
Questions courtesy of Kateri and Megan. Thank you!

Character Interviews: Rosie Tyler
Name: Rosie Knudson
Significant Other: Do I look like I have time for a guy?
What is your strongest belief? Life should be fun! And meaningful. But mostly fun.
How do you like to spend your time? Doing things with Bevin and Jane. And Katty. And Aiden's a cutie. And...oh, just everyone.
If you could go anywhere, where would you go? Oklahoma. I know that sounds random... but I've heard good things about that place. I'd like to see if they're true.
What is your favorite food? Turkey...stuffing...pumpkin pie... let's just say Thanksgiving food. We should have Thanksgiving all year round. For more than just the food...but the food's a great perk!
Describe yourself in one word: Thilly. (Not silly, mind you. Thilly is sillier than silly!)
What type of music could you listen to for hours? I don't know if I could listen to anything for hours. I'd go a little bonkers. Okay. A little more bonkers.
Do you have a favorite author? You expect me to pick just one? Ha! Oh, fine. C.S. Lewis is pretty great.

What instruments do you play? Piano, sort of. When I sit down and do it. Bevin is much better at it because he actually practices.
If you could speak any language, what would it be? Swedish. Then I'd be able to talk to my relatives in Sweden without making them speak English.
Do you enjoy writing for the Backus Blab? Yes, I love it! Silly question, though. Why would I do it if I didn't enjoy it?
What is your favorite memory? A couple years ago, Bevin (my twin) gave me time for my birthday. He gave me a watch, but more importantly he set aside and entire week and told me I could drag him around and he'd do whatever I asked. It was glorious.
Rosie, Bevin, and Jane can be found in both Forgotten Memories (available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Lulu) and Sanisfreeda (FREE on Smashwords).
