Sandra Murphy
Character Interview with Bernice
Can you tell us a little about yourself?
Well, for one thing I’m a Pink Lady at the hospital. I meet the most interesting
people there. Well, except that doctor I went to. He was just rude. I mean, he
looked like he was twelve years old but not nearly as cute as that Dougie
Howser who was on TV. Anyway, this doctor told me that I was getting old, get
used to it! Can you imagine?
Then he said I should do something I always enjoyed doing. I can’t say too
much about that or I’d have to kill you. Seriously. I thought it over and decided
he was right. I volunteered to help one of my patients at the hospital with a little
problem he was having. It was very satisfying.
Was there a certain time in your life when you knew you wanted to be a
sleuth?
I wouldn’t call myself a sleuth. That would be somebody who unravels a
mystery. I think of myself more like the person who creates mystery. I see a
problem, analyze the situation and then I do what needs to be done. I can’t talk
about the details.
