I appreciate the correction. Gotta memorize it to search on library catalogs and authority records. I’m a professional on library science (like Twi) and getting names like this one right saves A LOT of work.
 
Schulz it is.

Wait - sorry, I’ve just read some more proof that seems to contradict my theory and presents a much odder view on things…turns out that his wife’s behaviour to him was the inspiration for Lucy’s love for Schroeder. How this works is beyond me.

It wasn’t just his childhood, he took inspiration from his life at the time the strip was around as well. Lucy, for example, was apparently inspired by his first, ex, wife. In his second, happier, marriage, Lucy began to soften up to Charlie Brown, while his second wife herself inspired Peppermint Patty.  
The unusual thing about his first marriage, however, was that Lucy was created and had her distinctive personality come about WHILE SCHULTZ WAS STILL MARRIED TO HIS FIRST WIFE, bringing up suspicious questions about what his first wife was like to him…

He was Charlie Brown, his dog was Snoopy (not by name, he made some promise or something that his next dog would be named Snoopy, ergo the comic character), the Little Red-Haired Girl was a girl he had fallen for but had turned him down, and there’s probably plenty more inspiration from his own life we may never even know about.

Right into the feels! I always feel so bad for Charlie Brown… Good grief… And they say that yes, Charles M. Schultz had hard times in a personal level in childhood. A true gentleman and a melancholic kind of fella. I think he WAS Charlie Brown.

I always had this problem with Charlie Brown where it’s, like, everybody felt pity for him but no one ever really tried to boost his self-esteem. They either pitied him or shit all over him. I guess he was an author avatar, so Schultz must’ve been one depressed kid.
