Answer: Horrific

In an interview with H.W. Fowler, when asked the question "If that's based on you (talking about her book "Crazy Leggs Beshee"), why did you choose a profession like acting, with all the attention that it involves?. Her answer was "You know, it actually kind of chose me, as corny as that sounds.

It sounds so stupid, but I basically got a film out of nowhere. So, I did Children of the Corn V without studying or anything, and I was mortified by how horrible I was. I was so bad, it was so hard to watch, I was actually crying at dailies. I didn't understand it.

But I wanted to understand it, and I wanted to be good at it. So, that made acting a challenge to me. It really wakes me up, just makes me alive. I have to be on my toes, and it's amazing. I have to be on my toes at all times because there's someone else waiting to snag it, and I love that feeling."
