^You live in the here and now.
Sheesh, I've only written three [well, two and a half] books and I already have character archetypes.
The heroine: often modeled after myself [yes, I will admit that], who neither saves the world nor defeats the villain, since there are no villains in my stories; almost always has something to do with cats and/or wings.
The love interest: almost always androgynous, somewhat mysterious, and with high magical abilities.
Those two comic relief guys: often a gay couple, usually with an inclination towards weirdness.
