Cathy, I'm sure that you selected actors/actresses to play the characters from your Cecilia stories on either the old forum or the really old forum but I can't remember who they were! So, just out of curiosity, who do you "see" as your characters? (You don't need to post pictures if it's too much work or you just don't feel like it--just their names and we can look them up!)
I love that you asked me this. :P For some reason I am obsessed with "seeing" my characters. I started out seeing Cecilia as either Alexis Bledel or Zooey Deschanel but after I was flipping through a stack of old Saturday Evening Posts years ago I decided she looked like more like this to me:

And I chose this one, similarly, for Manon:

What do you guys think? I'd be thrilled if you posted your own characters, too, to see how they matched up with my ideas of them!
You know, that's exactly how I've envisioned Cecilia.
That makes me feel so good, to think that she's coming across like that to other readers. :)
Love it! I especially love seeing older-type pictures (although modern actors are fun too), because they fit so much better with the flavor of LMM's stories!
