Day Two of Jen's from Unedited's Guess That Character Blogfest is the reveal of my spotlighted character!
Julie Knotts is a young woman in her mid-twenties who is living on her own for the first time, without family or room mate. It's a scary time for her, because unresolved issues from a childhood tragedy compromise her sense of security in the world. Most of the time, she's just plain paranoid that the worse case scenario is destined to play out. She's carefree by nature, so the forced conditioning her personality suffers from fear is her greatest inner conflict.
So, without further ado, here is Julie:
She's highly artistic, but lacks the self-confidence to pursue her talents (What if no one thinks I'm any good? What if I can't pay my bills? What if I have an accident and hurt my hands, or my eyes, and can't paint or play music anymore? What if...? What if...?)
Thanks everyone who visited my blog and made a guess. There were a lot of participants! I wasn't able to visit everyone's entry. I think I fell short by about 15. I'm going to try to get around to those I missed yesterday!!
A LOT of you guessed correctly! I was very impressed :D
Thanks, Jen, for the fun time! *hugs*

Julie is gorgeous!!! I love the selection and think it fits her beautifully!
There were so many entries yesterday, but all of them were fabulous! I look forward to making my rounds to all of them again today. It wasn't easy but I made it to them all...
Thanks for being apart of the blogfest!
I probably should've been more descriptive, but that's close to the image in my mind.
Pretty girl. Close to the way I saw her. It was fun!
Awesome pic. That photo alone says so much about your character. :)
Ahhhhh I wasn't close at all, lol.
What an awesome character!
Hi,
Lovely pic!
Wow, it's been a rollercoaster ride round the blogs, but fun all the same!
The men, pff, well, they just don't have the same stamina as us women!

I went down and read the entry first--I can SO picture her rolling the paint on the wall-great job! Great photo reveal!
I like your vision so much better than my own! Perfect picture!!
It was such a fun contest, wasn't it!
I'm so impressed you have such a solid grip on your character, Nicole!
Love the photo!! I was way off, but that's okay. :) Such a great capturing of essence, too.
She sounds like a complicated and fascinating character. And I love the picture - it seems like a great fit!
Funny, I didn't get that insecure/lack of confidence vibe at all. Maybe that's just because I didn't *want* her to be either. A little projection there on my part?
This whole thing has been so much fun! I can't remember if I made it to yours yesterday Nicole, sorry if I didn't. Either way thanks for sharing, she sounds like a compelling character.
Today's guest blogger is Renae Mercado!
I bet she'll change her tune once her first hit single reaches download 1 million.
She looks exactly like I imagined! :)
Happy weekend...
very close to what I thought, thanks for putting up the picture. have a great weekend!
gorgeous pic! i didn't have the paranoia and i thought she was anal... but the look was kinda close... man i'm bad at this!
Gosh was I way off or what? This is turning out to be a real eye-opening and FUN blogfest!
She is so cool and she fits the snippet!
is that Mischa Barton? Well... hmm. I think I was close. Who'd I guess? The young Gwyneth Paltrow?
Nope. I was way off... LOL! :D
Coo! She's beautiful! Next time I'll go for wavy hair rather than straight! ;)
She looks super fun and quirky. Your scene was beautiful, as well! I'm sorry I didn't make it around in time to read it yesterday.
Wohoo, I got it almost right! =D
Argh, I missed out on guessing!

Julie seems like someone I'd hang out with, and I love the picture! :]
The pic totally works for your scene - nice!
I agree with Jemi, the picture works. Great job. :)
This is such a fun game! :D
I was pretty close. That was fun.
I'm really enjoying these, even though I'm a little late to the blogfest. Good photo selection!
This was such a fun blogfest! I love your character! Great picture!
hmmm, kinda got it right! If she plays guitar she must have short nails, even though not bitten! :o)
Hey Jessica. I read your piece (which was beautifully written) and can totally see this girl in those lines. Great job!!!
