Ford claims ranger gets up to 29 mpg. Window sticker in 1990 read same. I have driven a 1990 Ranger for 17 years. It has 317,000 miles on it. It has been driven from NC to Ca. Serviced regularly. At no time have I ever gotten close to this kind of mileage. I average 20-21 mpg. Is there a Ranger that gets up 29 mpg ?

I have four question to ask about characters. In making them up I was wondering how many
characters are really needed in a novel story. I know it depends since I am the writer but
how many are there usually in a story from minor to major? Secondly, as far as minor
characters are concerned I saw the Order of the Pheonix and Snape being a minor character
had some HUGE grudge againist Harry because of Harry's father and how he treated him in
school. and snape was mad that Harry found out about his problem. My question is general
so how can a minor character have some history on a drama matter when the story's focus is
really on the main character and the crap that he's in? How many characters do i really
need to have a novel of fantasy and what references would you offer on learning to become
a fantasy writer. I have LOVED fantasy since I was a child and am an Anime junkie BIG time.

Secondly, How would you guide the characters from an age bracket of teenage to adult
while at the sametime guiding adults? J.K. Rowling did this and she was successful. Harry
started as 11 and stopped as a 21 to 23 year old. (About ready to start on book four
Goblet of Fire.) You can see my problem. I want to give my characters a rising conflict
and SHOW it to my audience. Making them feel like they are in the story going through the
exact samethings that the characters. So How do I hit them emotionally on different
emotions, creating suspense, mystery, love, and action without breaking their minds and
hearts where the story would carry them to the main thing that I am trying to communicate?
We all have many different reasons for writting but the main reason is that we as writers
wish to write is to further explain the human condition and to offer hope and anwsers
through our writings.

Third question is how do you convert a horrorific idea into a fantasy one?

I want to guide my audience to see what it is that I am saying through a rising conflict
where if I were to just say it adruptly it's a jumping conflict and the reader would put
down the book in the trash. I don't want that!! I just want to entertain and educate at
the sametime through the field of fantasy.

Is it wrong to read books as material to comming up with ideas so long as I am comming up
with simuliar and I have a simuliar theme? Through out the story. This is all I have for
research is fictional books. To write a series of books I have all of the Harry Potter
Series 4 to 7, Lord of the Rings 1-3 and the Hobbit and somemore books to review. As you
can see I am a lot and I really need help with this.

I have explained enough. Do you have or know of any references about magic performed in a
story like from Harry Potter series etc.? I have been working on my own story and am almost
done with chapter one. A short story turning into a novel and I need help with characters
and their history. Do I have to go into EXTREME details on the major characters and the
minor characters, the situations that they're in, whether good or bad, even their history
in regards to the situation that I am presenting in the scene or the story, in order to
explain them to the public? I am very new to this field. I just want to help others by
speaking of the things that I have seen through a rising conflict affecting my audience. I
don't know a thing about publishing and I really don't want my work to fall into the wrong
hands etc.

The other question is how do I create a character without it looking like I am refering to
anyone else? How do I create a situation where the scene or story isn't at all predictable
on what's going to happen next?

I work in a frame shop and yea I'm a little bit of an environmentalist. I've changed all the light bulbs except the one in the fridge pretty much...if they made eco friendly fridge lights...yea I would changed that one too! lol.
In the fram shop I'm constantly keeping scraps of glass or mats and using them from other pieces of art work for out customers. It's not a bad thing, it's brand new and I place different material in different drawers. My old manager thought I was a little silly..but I was also saving the shop money so she didn't care.
My new manager however never even bothered to ask me about the material and threw away at least 700 bucks worth of scraps into the trash! She came to me and basically said global warming doesn't exist, and that it's all a scam. I personally believe global warming is a problem, but I've never mentioned my beliefs to her at all. Plus I was saving the shop money!! What would you have done? Do you think Global warming is an issue or just con
