5. By age, who is your youngest character? Oldest? How about “youngest” and “oldest” in terms of when you created them?

I think my youngest character is probably Oswy, one of the viewpoint characters of The Witch’s Boy.  He’s 11.  The oldest character I’ve ever written was about 20,000 years old, but he was one of Tolkien’s elves, not one of my own characters.

I don’t remember who was my first character.  My most recent is probably Phyllis, who is a retired English teacher, the resident photographer of Matlock Paranormal Investigations, and a keen watcher of daytime soap-opera.
