    Southern belle eh? I'm a Brit whose in love with southern accents since I discovered them on " The Walking Dead" . Does " Maggie's" sound genuine? I know she's a Brit ( as is Andrew Lincoln).

    Yes, I have two legitimately bright-red-headed step kids. Although, I don't treat them any different than my own two. :) They're really a great fit in my family. I'm very close to my step daughter. We're a lot alike...loud, bossy, demanding, needy, and in love with the same man (she just calls him Deddy instead of Darling).

    Yup. Southern Belle, here. I can guarantee that my accent is the real deal, unlike on TWD. BUT!! Where they film, Senoia, is 30 minutes from where I live. The town they're "in", Woodbury, is 15-20 minutes down Hwy 74 from my house, and they've shut down Sprewell Bluff (pronounced "Sproo-will") to film a couple seasons ago, and I go there just about every other weekend or so during the summer to swim and sun on the Flint River. I've thought about being an extra...but I just don't have that kind of time. haha There's a TWD store in Senoia, and there have been a lot of local people that have eaten with, run into, and befriend some of the cast members. Also, in the Hunger Games Mockingjay, I forget which one, "Sector 9" was filmed in an abandoned cotton mill in my hometown right behind my house. Here's the "big news" that Hollywood was in town.

    If you'd like to hear what I used to do in my spare time, and hear my accent, check this out. I haven't updated in over 4 years. I should probably get to it...hahaha

    I worked with a woman who was from Alabama I think I liked her accent. I also had a girlfriend with a southern accent once.

    What's great about my accent is the simple fact that my parents and literally everyone else in my family (both sides) lives in Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. So, I have a southern twang with a touch of Yankee. It makes for some interesting looks from people. Like when I say I want a "pop". Everyone in the south calls anything carbonated "coke"...no matter if it's Sprite, Pepsi, Mt Dew, or Coke-a-Cola. It's all coke. That's just stupid to me. lol I either call the drink by its name or "pop", i.e., "I want a pop. Will you pick me up a Rockstar?" haha

    Hey barbie, I'm from the south. Lived all over it. My southern accent is almost gone, but not completely...People still comment on it though so I guess it's still audible. I notice though that when I get emotional my accent gets really pronounced. Also, If I happen to be talking to someone else with a good southern accent then mine sort of wakes up and before I know it I sound like they do. Does that happen to you?

    TB-

    Ha. Yes! When I visit my Michigan family, or even talk on the phone to them, I get a northern accent so thick it drives my honey batshit. lol And being around his family, none of which have ever lived more than 50 miles radius from our hometown, has added about 1000 layers of thickness to my drawl. His Nanny is the one with the real old-timey southern talk, tho. She says things like "twiced" and "onliest". I love it. Borrow is "barree" and wasps are "wasts", asked is "ast". I absolutely love it.
