Cecily A. Brighton

October's Featured Character is Cecily, Rollie's best friend and sleuthing comrade. Here's an inside look into the inspiration behind her character. 

1. FC Shaw got the idea for her name from a character from her favorite play "The Importance of Being Ernest"

2. Cecily's cardigan with the patchwork bird she's wearing in Chapter 1 is an item of clothing in FC Shaw's closet

3. Cecily's favorite Holmes case "The Adventure of the Dying Detective" is FC Shaw's all-time favorite story

4. Cecily's observation skills are very keen. She keeps notebooks full of observations she's made on those around her

5. Cecily's older teenage brother doesn't know she swipes his trousers to wear--she's quite stealth.
