salienneSo if any of you have actually been paying attention to the novel snippets I've strewn around here (I really can't blame you if you haven't been... they're vague to the point of a steamy room you've never been in before anyway), you'll know that one of my two main characters is "Sandra Kinne." You might also know that, dear God, I've had such a hard time with her. She was just... too stereotypical and a bit like a cardboard cutout who had a personality that was like some steamy room for me, and until a few months ago (when I was already well into Part 2 and had written 100+ pages), I could never figure out what made her tick.
Well you know, I've just realized how much I adore her. At the moment, she'd completely horrified and half in-denial, but she's just forcing herself to accept what's going on--at least for now but probably permanently--and get to business. Sure they've got time to waste, sure there's plenty of other things she'd rather be doing, sure she's even spent the past few hours whining, but it's time to actually do something, and she's not going to sit around while bad shit's going down. Sort of like Rose in TIP taking charge, really, though with less actual "taking charge" and more collaboration.
I admire this gal.
And I know this might sound conceited or odd or like I'm discussing a real person, but hey, I've lived with this character in my head for, oh, several months now, and I'll probably be stuck with her for several more months. And I'm okay with that; she's far less self-centered than the other two main characters. I adore her.
And I could play her in Crazy Eights. :D
...And with y'all probably thinking I'm nuts, I will now skitter off and write and watch SVU.
Ta, my dears!
