I've had a lot of hero's growing up; I still do. The first people that I respected enough to amount to hero status were my parents, but most of my heros are fiction, or at best fictionalized.
I suppose that some of my first heros were Nancy Drew and the kids from Madelene L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time, Meg and Charles Wallace. These days, my hero's are the wordsmiths themselves: William Blake, Walt Whitman, William Shakespeare (to name a few of the W's.) I regard the artist and the creator, the painter, sculptor, the philosopher and poet.
