I think unintentionally I gravitate towards concepts and topics that hit home or are something real we can all relate to.

I don't wanna play this kind of cartoon character anymore.

The Vampire Diaries is the story of Elena falling in love with Damon.

Do you know the kind of things that live up there?...things without names 'cause no one who's seen 'em has lived long enough to give them any name besides 'AAAARG!
