When celebrities come into the Bustle office, whether it's for a photoshoot, videoshoot, or a Facebook Live, we want to give them the chance to leave their mark. Literally. So we hand them a pen, a piece of paper, a few questions, and ask them to get creative. The rest is up to them. This time, actor Abigail Spencer is leaving her mark in the Bustle Booth.

Spencer has an impressive body of work behind her. She's had recurring roles on Mad Men, Hawthorne, Burning Love, How I Met Your Mother, True Detective, Suits, Rectify, and now, she's on Timeless. But Spencer didn't come to the Bustle LA office to chat about her Rolodex of TV roles, instead, she's here to chat about The Sweet Life, a touching, funny, and heartfelt indie feature she stars in, opposite Chris Messina.

In the film, out now, Spencer plays a deeply depressed and apathetic suicidal woman who finds an unlikely friend (Messina) on her way to the Golden Gate Bridge to end her life. Luckily, the film is a lot more positive than that simple logline conveys.

From Spencer's personal answers (and creative drawings) below you can find a little more insight into the Sweet Life actor.
