Sources of Inspiration
The Pink Heart's Male on Monday for this week was Rufus Sewell. No surprise there -- he definitely deserves to be among our "heroes" -- even though, as Natasha says, he may prefer not to be.
Well, let's just assume that he's a starting point and, as Michelle Styles says in her comment to Natasha's post, it's the roles he plays that give us pause for thought -- and creativity.
Still, the man himself is a bit of an inspiration as well!
As I have a small collection of pix of Rufus in my "heroes" folder as well, I thought I'd offer a couple here -- to get those of you still fixated on Hugh-in-a-towel to move on and broaden your horizons a bit.
Also I'm gearing up for writing my own contribution to the Male on Monday who will be out two weeks from today. Who is he?
Guess.
No, not Hugh. He's already got his spot. He's #1 on The Pink Heart Blog. But "my guy" is pretty impressive, too.
Meanwhile here's Rufus Sewell for you to be inspired by.
Is he a CEO? An Artist? A Scientist? An Adventurer?
Give him the personality sorter and find out. Or just start to write. It's up to you.

I agree, Anne - the man himself is very inspirational. And one that needs to be redeemed by the love of a good woman! What more could a romance writer ask for??? :)
Anne, very inspirational post. (I posted one of my fave pics, too.)
And Trish, you need to see him as Charles II. (No towel. Just Rufus. Is v. fine actor AND gorgeous with it.)
No towel, Kate?
Yes, he's a fantastic actor. Completely into whatever part he's doing. He makes you believe.
WHo needs towels??
I am sitting nere with a very smug smile on my face remembering seeing Mr R Sewell in the flesh on stage in Sheffield when he played Macbeth in The Scottish Play - I had a seat very near the stage and found the whole evening very very inspiring indeed

On a more sombre note - have you seen Rufus Sewell speaking Simon Armitage's poem about 9/11. It's brilliant and heartwrenching

Rufus Sewell nominated for his role as Jan in Rock and Roll..well he better win or I will eat my cat...sorry, that should read hat...he is inspirational, looking for roles that challenge, the unexpected. What wil he do next? More comedy would be wonderful! Nadine
Nadine, Thanks for the news. I'm so glad to hear about his nomination. I heard he was brilliant. I wished I'd had time when I was in London in September to get to see it. I'm sure he'll get lots more great roles coming his way. I agree that more comedy would be fantastic. Keep me posted!
