My character, Taylor McKessie, is a little bit brighter in the math and science department than I am... okay, a lot.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I used to describe myself as a comic novelist, but my concerns seem to have darkened over the past few years.
Everyone on the planet has a dark and a light. That's a multi-dimensional character.
As an actor, I'm constantly striving to find the darkness in the lighter characters and the lightness in the darker characters.
To me, there are things you're good at and things you're not so good at. For some reason, I'm good at darker characters. It has to do with how you look.
Well, I think in my first two novels, both the characters are pretty neurotic, which I would say that I am.
I tend to gravitate toward conflicted characters, and a character who is exploring chaos theory and population control and the difficulties of love and family is pretty rich.
I don't think I can be a bright and fresh-looking actress. I am not really confident in that kind of character.
I'm drawn to dark characters, and to things that are really weighty.
My character from 'Panda Eyes,' Fay, is the character I see myself in a lot.
People think I'm thick because of the characters I play. I think I'm brighter than the characters. Well, I hope I am.
