Collette

Collette was raised in France by her free spirited father, Jon Luc, and encouraged to express herself in any way she wanted. By nature extremely creative, Collette paints as though her life depends on it. She has traveled throughout Europe, and is quite worldly, although her lover Daniel would be absolutely ecstatic if she would consent to settle down and raise a family with him. She is not ready to be tied down, however.

Currently, she is living in and working out of a loft in Greenwich Village, and has been able to get her work in several local shows- to mostly decent reviews. There are a few people who think she has no talent at all. Others, though, think she is really going to make it big one day. It is fortunate that her loft is located over The Common Grounds, a successful neighborhood coffee shop, since Collette is crazy about expresso. She absolutely lives on it.

Collette met the other girls on a literature discussion community on the internet. The group has been communicating regularly for 6 years-discussing various books they have read. This year they decided to meet and take a small vacation together in Longville, MN. They had read that Longville was the smallest town in Minnesota to have a public library, and had heard of Longville's turtle races on National Public Radio last year.
