Here's another picture of Evelyn Nesbit, from when she was a little older, I think: [link]
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

t snerk on Richard Hatch...
Hmm. Nesbit, oddly enough, looks a bit too much like she could be a sister or cousin of my character's main love interest, especially through the eyes and nose, and I want them a contrasty couple rather than a matchy one. Hmm...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
You know when I was reading all those Evelyn Nesbit books growing up, I didn't realize she was a freakin' hottie.
In other exciting news, Emmett was one of 12 kids in his league named to the 11 y.o. All-Star team.

Hmm, I think my character might look a little like Hortense de Beauharnais, only not as sad and with a shorter nose and a firmer chin.
Which is kinda weird, because it's perfectly possible that Hortense herself might show up in this series eventually...

Hec, I think you're thinking of Edith Nesbit.

it's hard to find girls with dark hair and light eyes. Another dark haired brown-eyed beauty is Eve Myles.

Ooh, I've got her! She's Olivia de Havilland, but with light eyes! (I went paging through Best Actress nominee/winner wikipedia pages, and as soon as I saw a picture of her as someone other than Melanie Wilkes, I knew I'd found my character.)
Thanks, y'all--this helped, even though I ended up finding someone else, because it helped me clarify what I was looking for.

Wow, that's awesome! I'm not really surprised, but it's still great news!
Am awake and eating a popsicle (one of the sugar water in a plastic tube kind). The tummy is deigning to accept it.

Poor Steph. Still not feeling well?
