From which author you would and wouldn't like to be a character?

I don't if this thread exists already in these Forum ^_^ but I thought about this after reading some Danielle Steel's books and the characters in her books are:

- Killed.
- Raped.
- Sterile.
- Orphans.
- Betrayed, etc.

And since the prospect of facing any of these realities doesn't attract me that much, I've decided that I wouldn't like to be a character on her books lol.

I also wouldn't like to be character of Tolkien, Feodor Dostoievski, Patrick S�¼skind, Franz Kafka, Dan Brown, Emily Br�¶nte, Henry James, Ernest Hemingway, etc.

But, on the contrary, I would love to be a character of Jane Auten, L.M. Montgomery, Louisa May Alcott, JK Rowling (even if she will evetually kill me >=0! ), Nora Roberts and Christine Feehan (I want a carpathian for meeee ).

And what about you... from which author you would and wouldn't like to be a character?
(If you can please respond to this very Fushigi Yuugi poll ).

K.A. Applegate had such a great run for her characters in Animorphs...and spoilt it with the last 10 books. Plot threads that had run through the entire series were abandoned (and lame excusess given for not exploring them) and almost everybody had a shitty ending.

I already am pretty much a stereotypical Character from postmodern mexican literature. - or perhaps 70s and 60s literature.

I'm also a very Chuck Palahniuk kind of character, come to think of it.

I'd like to be a Bret Easton Ellis character. I'd live in the eighties and be a cynical, drug-obsessed psychotic sexual deviant with a 10 digit bank account and lots of free time.

I would love be one of James Patterson's characters, mainly in Maximum Ride. I would love to be Max. One of J.K Rowlings wouldn't be to bad either I would love to be one of her characters and maybe one of the characters by C.S Lewis that would be cool too.

Arturo Perez Reverte.. i would love to be a character on his novels of Alatriste Captain... or Truman Capote's Books or maybe Umberto Eco's
