.”.. go get me a drink Squidge, I’m thirsty, and do it now before I fire you!” . Squidge is another one of the minor characters of my novel. He is an aspiring film director who is very confident. He can be shy at times when situations become overwhelming. ” now if everybody does not co-operate this movie won’t be made so Squidge STOP moving the camera and get back to work!” .
At the beginning of the story the setting is at Lia’s house, but as the story progresses the setting changes. For the rest of the story the setting is at the main high school in Cornwall. One conflict in my novel is when Squidge is chosen as the cameraman, because the other cameraman had gotten in a car accident on the way to Cornwall. When Squidge is chosen as the cameraman everyone is happy because practically the whole town knows his dreams of becoming a film director.
As the first few days went by very easily, Squidge got to know Savannah more and more. Suddenly if Savannah wanted a glass of water and Squidge refused to get it, he would have to fight with the other crew members to stay on the team. For Squidge it was becoming a chore to get Savannah every little thing that she wanted. After a few more days of this Squidge got fed up with it all and threatened to quit and actually did just so that he could get a few days rest. Since no one else knew how to work a real video camera they had to meet Squidge demands or there would be now movie.

I was with her in her superstar’s trailer and she didn’t want errands running. Oh no. She wanted to rehearse a scene from the film.
With me taking the other actor’s part. And it wasn’t just any old scene she wanted to go through. It was a snogging scene. Oh.
