this round started by: telesilla:

001. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
002. I will respond by asking you five questions of a very intimate and creepily personal nature. Or not so creepy/personal.
003. You WILL update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
004. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post.
005. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.



1. Who's your favorite character to write?

wow. start off with the easy one, why dontcha? um... orlando was easy to write. ewan is also easy. i think i prefer ewan, at the moment. i like straightforward, simple, energetic 20something male characters, rather than the tall/dark/older/complicated/aloof kind. i want my boys to swoon for those men, but i find them difficult to write. right now i'm so in love with my ewan in 50kinkyways.

2. What do you like least and most about where you live?

least = traffic from the tourists in the on-season.
most = wacky, wonderful, weird people, all the time - it's never ever boring here

3. What one place of all the places you've never visited do you want to visit most?

there's a lot of places i've never visited. right now that most intriguing is greece.

4. What's your favorite piece of clothing?

black t-shirt with "deviant" on the boobs in silver sparkly cursive

5. Which are your favorite, salty snacks or Sweet?

sweet, if it's chocolate. if it's not chocolate, then salty. maybe. can i have both?

1. You get to travel a fair bit in your line of work - do you enjoy that or is it a pain in the ass?

Actually, I enjoy it a lot, especially now that both my kids are older and off to college or hardly home anyway so I don't feel like I'm neglecting them. Whenever I can steal a little free time from work duties (which sometimes doesn't happen!) I'll just get in the car and drive around and explore. Lately I've started to try and meet up with people I've gotten to know on LJ if they live anywhere near where I happen to be traveling, and that's been fantastic. I've been able to use the frequent flyer and hotel points I've accumulated to do fun things for me like TIFF and the retreats, that I wouldn't be able to afford otherwise. And, I almost feel guilty saying it, but the uninterrupted time alone leads to some of my most productive writing.

2. Of all your stories, which one do you like the most and why?

I'm never completely happy with anything I write, but I think maybe Red (http://namarie120.livejournal.com/6268.html), because it's the first story where I experimented with style and it seemed to work pretty well.

3. Of the 50kinkyways prompts, which one is the most extreme thing you would like to either to write or to try in real life? (You don't have to specify in your answer if it's writing ot or trying it.)

Submissive - not involving deliberate infliction of pain or humiliation, but just giving in, having to obey someone else. I'm such a control freak in both my job and personal life, that the idea of giving myself over to someone I trust enough to care for both of us is very appealing.

4. What's your favorite animal at the zoo?

I hate seeing animals in zoos, but I love the grace and speed and power of panthers (or any of the big cats).

5. If you won the lottery tomorrow and had all the time in the world to do whatever you want, what would that be?

Travel to all the places I still want to see, meet the people I want to meet, and read and write as much as I want.
