Inspiration Board #4: Meet Sarah

Sarah's actually one of my favorite characters in Who's The Fairest. She kind of reminds me of how one of my best friends used to act in, like, 9th grade, but she's really just a mix of everyone ever and at the same time totally her own person. She's super boss- the most boss person in WTF- with the exception of maybe Max (I'll talk about him later), and Julie and Krista and Lisa.

Anyway, Sarah's inspiration slide has just gotten messier and messier as I've gotten to know her and I see things and immediately think "Oh, Sarah would love that!" Hence the watermelon bike. She would think that's the coolest thing ever, hands down. There used to be a pair of cow socks on there until I realized those were something Kiley (from wayyyy back in Texas) would have liked. Sarah would hate Kiley and immediately shun cow socks as soon as she realized Kiley liked them, so naturally they were deleted as soon as I realized this.

Also. There's a picture of this girl with her hair all in these branches and stuff. It looks super intense. And Sarah would have totally done it- as a joke. Then called Kiana or Max and gotten them to come see her, and she would strike that exact pose and would say something like "I am one with my inner soul", then realize she was super stuck and Kiana would have to spend the next hour untangling her.

Sarah would never apologize, and Kiana would just sigh. But that's just Sarah.

The girl in the far right is what I most picture Sarah as looking like, but she also sometimes looks like the one on the far left.

She'd never actually put daisies- or any flowers- in her hair, but she probably struck that same pose on her bed, all exasperated and stuff, as soon as she got home after spilling Elisabeth's secret. Like "Shoot. What did I just do?"

Although she also might have struck it if Elisabeth or Kiana ever decided to practice their photography on her, and forced her to put those in her hair. She'd be counting the seconds until it was over.

Because that's just Sarah.

I just think she's the coolest person ever.

Elisabeth told her about the letters from M first, and she kept it secret- er, for awhile. She's a little crazy. But now Sarah's just toughing through watching her best friend date her crush. She does a sport... or two... or three a season and is just the craziest person alive.

I adore her. I don't think anyone in the story would be the way they were if it weren't for Sarah.

Keep rocking it, Sarah. You're the best.
