This is the first time I've ever commented, but I love your fic and also literary girls of awesome, yay!! Meg Murry from Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time is a favorite, but I truly love Blossom Culp. The books are almost impossible to find now days, but Richard Peck wrote a series starting with The Ghost Belonged to Me, wherein a boy named Alexander sees a ghost, and a girl named Blossom Culp follows him home from school. Blossom can see the ghost as well (and she can also see the future) and worms her way in to the adventure and helps him save the day. The next few books in the series are her using her powers to help people. Finally, Sabriel and Lirael from Garth Nix's Abhorsen trilogy are both fantastically awesome characters.
