I love Grover; not so much the old-spice guy although he makes me laugh every time.<br /><br />My characters probably have more traits in me than I'd like to admit. But my mom was a psychologist, so I have lots of material to draw on that isn't actually me, just memories of crazy things!! :)Susan Kaye Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07348197999397141067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-54072039156799547452010-10-15T17:37:19.929-04:002010-10-15T17:37:19.929-04:00A lot of my characters have little aspects of me i...A lot of my characters have little aspects of me in them, sometimes intentionally, sometimes not.

I'm just not interesting enough to be the MC in a novel. :)Dianne K.

I have a lot of juicy stuff from my childhood too having grown up with musicians as parents. The danger of that though, when I use too much, is that it brings my mojo down. Something I don't like remembering deflates my writing enthusiam! PS: I LOVE Grover!!!!Jessica Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10889900730906728317noreply@blogger.com
