My mom sent me to regular high school because she wanted me to have that experience and not say that I missed out but I didn't like it at all. I'm more comfortable in the world that I'm in I grew up in it so when I get around normal kids in regular high school I don't know what to do. I feel more secure in an adult environment.

I played with dolls until I was 15. My mother encouraged it because my older sister got married when she was 15 so Mom thought that the longer I stayed with dolls the better.

My father left... but I tell my mom - and I told my mom this when I was a kid - I said 'You know what Mom? Good thing he left because you're a strong woman.'

My mom didn't ever think I would take to acting because I was a very shy very reserved kind of child. But obviously something changed!

For me being tall was very positive because I thought my mom was the most beautiful person ever.

Of course I would be depressed sometimes and my Mom would be worried about me because I would just sleep to escape. Cause I was so scared of being a musician or artist or whatever you want to call it.

When I was 12 I cried to my mom because I never got my letter to Hogwarts.

My mom she's a breast cancer survivor and because of that I had started getting mammograms once a year starting at age 30.

My mom was always pretty supportive. She saw me do plays and she'd always act out the parts I did. My aunt who played a big part in my life was a little bit more reserved because if they don't see you on TV every week they think you must be starving.

I was looking to do something non-fiction because I had done a strip 'My Mom Was a Schizophrenic.' I really enjoyed the process of doing that strip despite its subject matter. To do it I'd had to do a lot of research and reading and I figured I'd like to do that again.
