When describing your character's initial appearance, did you include their clothes in the description? If so how did you choose the color?
Yes, I did, and I constantly refer to those clothes, much to the amusement of some and the annoyance of others. However, my character is quite picky about the clothes she wears, so it makes sense in that context.
And I like blue, green and purple. And frilly, flowery things, so that's how Lisa's outfit(s) came to be.
As for any awards, I'm in the boat that I don't read enough to make an informed nomination (I read like TWO fics here, and one is quite slow to update *glares at bobandbill*), and I seriously doubt that will change anytime in the foreseeable future (unless someone writes a really great trainer fic starring an all female cast, then I might be inclined to expand my horizons XD).
