I don't see anything wrong with basing a character partially on yourself. In fact, it can be useful, because then you will be able to more easily get into that characters head. Creative writing should be fun. It's a form of expression and there shouldn't be ridiculous rules regarding where you got your inspiration from.
Wow, that sounds a bit like me. I am often a victim of bullying at work, but I didn't realize it could have something to do with me loving to learn (although I am not super intelligent). I am also optimistic and take a long time to find out about the rumours which are being spread. Nowadays I take a closer look at who ever is saying bad things about me, and I often see that that's just the way they lead their lives, and that the issue is not really about me, but very much about them. Poor soles.
I'm late seeing this. Congrats! It looks very interesting. I can't wait to read it so I bought the kindle and the paperback. LOL!
