I'm writing a book set in the early Victorian era, but I'm having trouble with my hero. I want him to be humorous and amiable to the heroine, and yet, I prefer my heros cynical...or should I mix the two traits up?

Anyways, what kind of heros do you like? And why?

I love his work, yet a lot of people i know don't like it. I don't understand why you wouldn't love it, the way he paints beautiful scenery and uses light well.

Im looking at a painting from 1476, and in the description of all if its symbolism they describe corn (which kinda looks like young corn stalks, but yellow) as being this very symbolic thing in the painting. but i was under the impression that corn was isolated to america untill at least 1492...when columbus sailed the ocean blue. Is this not true?

I did this in about 7th grade art class, it only took about 2 hours to paint. Well i was wondering if it is good enough and if anybody would actually buy it if i sold it. People say they like it, but i am not sure if they are just being polite. Would you buy it?

Hey, I love to sing and have been told I have really nice tone but...... I am having a hard time hitting high(er) notes. Seriously, I sometimes have troubles with singing a C above middle C. It's like when I get around there, my voice just stops. I'm not tensing up and I'm sure its not in my head because, well i know thats not high. Any ideas? Vocal exercises, natural remedies. Also, I am only 14 so is it possible that my voice is just changing? Will it go away? please help! It's really frustrating!
