Shannon Tattersall

Shannon Tattersall is a main character in the series, Sweet L.A. Life: The New Generation. She is portrayed by Brooke Vincent and debuts in the fifth arc.
Sensitive and brooding, Shannon channels her trauma and experiences into her creative writing. She is a self-professed "dysfunctional liar" and often loses herself in vivid fantasies, detaching from reality as a way to cope with her inner demons. Her tendency to wallow in her own "darkness" leads her to lash out in deeply self-serving ways. To others, Shannon comes across as "weird" and "complicated", while Shannon in turn feels isolated and misunderstood even by those closest to her.
Initially a fish-out-of-water from the Midwest, Shannon quickly embraces the Los Angeles lesbian community. She eventually flourishes into a successful author after numerous setbacks. Her novel Maybe it's Me about a young woman's quest to find Ms. Right in Los Angeles, ends up on the bestsellers' list.
