Found at last!

One of the most important things for me is to have a visualization of my characters when I am writing. I mean, they are in my head but being able to put a face up on screen is almost impossible. Nothing ever matches one's personal internal view. For years, I have looked at photos of red headed women, trying to find my ideal Stephanie and my ideal Georgette. The men were pretty easy to organize.
In this past week I have found both women. Shocking when I realize that I probably looked at three thousand photos or more. I can now scan a page of 75 in seconds. Kristin Kreuk is the Georgette of my fantasies. She just seemed to fit the part. I saw a photo, one in which her Chinese heritage isnt so obvious. Didn't know who she was. I only watch news and cable TV. Well I saw her face and knew this was the ideal image. Unlike fotosearch which has thousands of nameless photos, there was a name attached to this one which I found on a hair blog. When I googled her and looked at more pictures and read her biography, I was hooked. She is a little shorter than the woman in my story but that matters less and less.
I was so happy? Yes! because someday I hope to see this story of mine on screen, whether big or small and I am already looking for my cast. How's that for dreaming?
My delightful Vasily Stephanov continues to be the dream man of my Beauty and the Beast stories www.fanfiction.net . What a perfect match he was! Now I just need to find and/or identify my heroine Stephanie. If you know any tall exciting titian redheads, send a photo. BTW I have already been to the redhead goddess forum.
