When I was a kid, I wanted to be an actress. I always loved dressing up, playing pretend, making up stories, and of course, getting the attention. Of course I gravitate towards fictional characters and their worlds!
1. Wicked/Black Lady from Sailor Moon. She is the grown up form of Mini Moon and all her negative feelings. She felt unloved and abandoned and became twisted. I've struggled with poor self-esteem as a youngin' and have always been driven by people wanting to love and appreciate me. Also, Wicked Lady is just a badass- looking character.
2. The Belcher ladies. I have the nurturing, crazy-mama bear instincts of Linda, I am a mischevious little sister like Louise, and also embody the permanent awkwardness of Tina.
3. Lenore,the cute little dead. Creepy, adorable, living in a land filled with scary monsters that are her best friends. And the fishies do go pook pook, pook.
Are your fictional characters cartoons or real humans? Are they characters from your childhood that have made the long journey with you to "adulthood"?
