Monday Musings #4 - What Character Are You?

Little known fact about this author - I love Wonder Woman. I used to watch Lynda Carter on Wonder Woman with my father -- the reruns, of course! I wasn't even born when the series was on T.V. As a little girl, I didn't fully grasp the complete powers of Wonder Woman, but I knew she was a kickass femme who fought for justice. My mother bought me the Wonder Woman Underoos, which any child of the 80s will recall. (Underoos were the coolest underwear for kids, featuring Wonder Woman, Superman, Batman, and other characters.) At five years old, I never wanted to get dressed; I just wanted to play Wonder Woman and save the world from evil. So yeah, I have a little Wonder Woman hiding inside me.

When I need a kick in the butt and some inspiration to get through hard writing times or any other struggle, I turn to Wonder Woman. Sounds silly, but sometimes it helps to reach for childhood comforts. What character is hiding in you?
