Weekly Lark 3/9/11

The Weekly Lark is a prompt for the imagination: something that’s just for fun. A lark is defined as “a source of or quest for amusement or adventure”. . . so let the adventure begin!

This week: Who is your "I want to be more like that person" character?

Andrea: I want to be more like Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird. He always stood his ground- even when times were tough. I want to be able to have that courage and serenity about me all the time.

Paula: I'd like to be more like Yelena in Maria V. Snyder's Study series. Yelena is tough while maintaining her femininity. She overcomes adversity and becomes stronger for having endured it. She is quick to learn and slow to forget. She comes to understand herself through understanding others. She is a leader without demanding to be so, and no matter how well you get to know her, she maintains an air of mystery.
