For anyone who loves to type to the sound of their own voice.

Once in a while I imag­ine myself as the beau­ti­ful, slen­der, fash­ion­able and dia­mond wear­ing Princess Tatianna. Com­ing from some old world type of fam­ily, whether they be Russ­ian roy­alty or some­thing touch­ing on the para­nor­mal like Fey crea­tures. Although my sis­ters may be the typ­i­cal blondes, I am always brunette. (Stay true to your roots, even if it even­tu­ally has to come out of a bot­tle). Princess Tatianna, not always her name, has an exten­sive glam­ourous and gor­geous wardrobe. The woman must have a palace just for all the clothes I have imag­ined her wear­ing at this point.

Quite often she is going to elab­o­rate func­tions. Quite often she wears some­one like Keanu Reeves on her arm because he has the impor­tant things like good looks, strength (an assort­ment of strengths, pos­si­bly a few mys­tic pow­ers thrown in too) and con­ver­sa­tion. Quite often Princess Tatianna is in the midst of some adven­ture. Not always a dra­matic adven­ture. Once she found a lost crown belong­ing to the drag­ons, once she led a rev­o­lu­tion for the trolls who were being badly picked on, another time she was run­ning away from the das­tardly vil­lain on an amaz­ing horse built like a Clydes­dale but able to run like it was lighter than air and yet another time she merely had to make polite social con­ver­sa­tion at a party thrown in her honour.

I have a lot of fun being Princess Tatianna. She is great com­pany on a long bus ride or while wait­ing for laun­dry at the laun­dry mat. Do you have your own Princess Tatianna, what­ever her name and descrip­tion? Write a lit­tle about her. Don’t be shy or feel too silly. Every­one should have a daz­zling secret identity/ alter ego. Only, why be secret when you can brag about it a little?
