Caribbean Selkie

I was delighted to find this adorable image of a "Caribbean Selkie" in [community profile] chromatics as almost all merfolk are rendered with fair skin and this one is caramel-colored.  She also has the big brown eyes and plump body that one would expect on a seal.  Check out the clever webbed forepaws too.  Picture is slightly NSFW as she is not wearing any seashells.

Making Your Horse a Character

S.A. Bolich gives some general tips and specific examples on the characterization of horses

Some things I've found useful:
* Get a list of bad and good horse quirks, which appear in some horse books.  Pick one of each for a horse you are writing about.
* Use a list of personality traits for humans.  A horse can be friendly, pushy, shy, disciplined, lazy, hopeful, greedy, etc.  Again, picking the most prominent virtue and vice is helpful for balance.
