“A character is never the author who created him. It is quite likely, however, that an author may be all his characters simultaneously.”

– Albert Camus

I love this quote.  (Thanks, Dagda Publishing Facebook page!)  I need to remember this the next time someone suggests that the main character in my book is an author proxy.

Or, as my Longwood High School pal Tim Gatto so tactfully asked, “Is Rebecca just you in drag?”

I will plead the Fifth, however, on whether or not any Mary Washington College pranks involved me getting into drag.
