I can't tell you how tickled I am about the results of this quiz.

Kate Winslet is one of my favorite actors. She is gorgeous, intelligent, witty, well-spoken and we share the same middle name. (For the record, both she and Emma Thompson are Eminent Women of Distinction in my book.)

Marianne Dashwood is the character I felt I most identified with the first time I read Sense & Sensibility. It is a sublime novel. (But you know that! If you made it this far, you've read it yourself, or at least seen one of the movie adaptations.)

The description is slightly off the mark on two points:

• my singing voice sounds like a cross between William Hung's and a cat caught in a blender set to liquify


• The only thing I can play on the piano is chopsticks

Here's hoping you are delighted with your results! Leave me a comment telling me which one you are.
