Writer's Block: My Secret Identity

-+twink+-

This is the persona I tend to be 90% of the time.  Twink is loud, funny, creative, well known, and well cared about.  Twink is also loyal to her friends, and family, and is a very nasty person when crossed.

-+the wxe+-

The WXE is also well known, and highly respected.  This is the persona that has the most pressure, as I have to be "on" all the time when I'm the WXE.   I cannot show a moment's hesitation, as that's viewed as a sign of weakness amongst my fellow Xenites.

-+the minister's daughter+-

The persona I hate.  The minister's daughter lives in a box.  She's polite, well mannered, very articulate and well spoken, and lives on a pedestal.   She has to hide who she really is, because she would be ostrasized from her entire community, and family if the truth came out.

-+aunt jj+-

The persona only a small handfull ever get to see.  Aunt JJ is the "fun" aunt.  She takes her nieces, nephews and godchildren to toy stores as an idea of an outing, and allows them to push all the buttons to see how something works, and to play with things while inside the store.  She doesn't discipline mildly bad behavior (forgetting to use an inside voice, sneezing without covering a nose etc).  She actually plays with them, and allows their imagination to run wild.

multiple personas, writer's block
