Writing Prompt: What Movie or TV Character, Would You Say, is Akin to Your Personality?

Michelle K. Miller
My friend, Tara Meacham, had the idea for us to start our own writing prompt blog, so other people with writer's block can visit our page, and find things to write about. We have not yet started our blog, but I thought I might test some waters here. This is my ninth writing prompt idea, and response.

Writing prompt: Which movie or TV character, would you say, is akin to your personality?

Response:

I don't think I could pinpoint one specific character that is akin to my personality. I'd like to think it's a combination of a few. I think I have a little cynicism and sarcasm from Daria Morgandorffer and Jane Lane from the old MTV cartoon, Daria. To that, I would add that I have a little ecentricness like Phoebe from Friends. I also think I have some of the not necessarily book smarts, but know-how, like Kaylee from Firefly. I think I also have some boldness (without the slutiness) of Manny from Degrassi: The Next Generation. I have the writing ability of Rory from Gilmore Girls, and the comedic side of her mother, Lorelai. I have a bit of a temper like Luke from the same show. I am sometimes naive, and see the good in people, like Grace from Secret Life of the American Teenager. I believe that my peace-keeping side is much like Emma from the early days of Degrassi: The Next Generation. My tendency to gossip sometimes, is a little like Gretchen from Mean Girls. Finally, my spiritual side, with the tendency to backslide a little, is a lot like Darcy from Degrassi, as well.

These are just a few elements of the person that is Michelle Miller, and the television and movie characters, that represent them. Who, on the big or little screen, is much like you?
