Introducing Secondary Characters

In case you weren’t aware, Winging It starts out during a wedding (which is fully portrayed in Monsters! Incidental Wedding Guests) and then the main characters go to Everdome. This book has a humungous cast of characters, and I thought it might be helpful to highlight a few of the secondary characters in both Westmeath and Everdome.

You can find a lot of the important characters from the first half of the book in the Monsters! Dream Casting: Main, Family, Other. Here are some of the missing ones:
