I identified with Pip from 'Great Expectations,' especially when I was younger; I had the same kind of gaucheness and uncertainty.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
'Great Expectations' has become one of my favorite books.
I'm totally obsessed with Dickens, and 'Great Expectations' was one of the first book's I read when I was still in school in Porthcawl.
'Great Expectations' was an important novel in my adolescence. It was very much one of those emblematic novels that made me wish I could write like that. It helped that my models as a writer were dead over a hundred years before I began to write.
'Great Expectations' is one of the greatest stories.
From an early age I was very, very fascinated by uncertainty.
When I was younger, I really struggled with confidence.
Other people may not have had high expectations for me... but I had high expectations for myself.
The young Dickens was so alive, so self-confident, so funny.
I was Pippa on 'Home And Away' for nearly a decade.
Doing 'Young Adult' was really reassuring to me in a lot of ways. It confirmed a lot of suspicions I had about great actors.
