1. What is your favorite word in the English language?
either cookies, fries, or love- not sure which actually.
2. Do you prefer writing poems or stories?
poems!
3. Where do you get your inspiration?
the world around me or from my four male Muses; i love them very much. 😀
4. What is your least favorite word?
no.
5. When and where do you like to write?
usually at my desk on my laptop but sometimes w/a pen and paper. i try to write a bit each day; it’s usually at night b/c i’m a night owl.
6. What do you think makes a good writer?
a desire to communicate & experience w/different people, places and things; also the ability to put into word a thought that tickles you but may also tickle another soul. however, i must say there’s not a set formula.
7. Do you, according to the criteria you just described, think of yourself as a good writer?
no, which is why i post my work and seek and audience and approval from others. it’s so i know ‘hey, i can reach people and you’re not being an ass about it!’
8. What is one thing you hate about writing?
people that ask me if i’ve made any money from things i’ve published; if i had i wouldn’t be there for them to ask me that, i’d be traveling or doing something fabulous 😉
9. Why do you write?
it’s cheap therapy & i sometimes giggle to myself about stuff i write.
10. Who do you write for?
for myself mainly and other times, to think out loud and get feedback.
11. What is the best book you have ever read?
whatever i read is the best; each book converses w/me in it’s own way. it’s like saying which pet or child you love more…
12. Who do you look up to?
the different versions of myself that have evolved through the years & those i find something about them which makes me say, ‘yeah i get that/them because they say or do this or that, etc.’
13. What do you think makes you able to write?
the mind babies forming w/in the playground of my brain; i’m very much a restless spirit w/ch’i that needs to be able to express itself on a daily basis.
14. Do you ever get writer’s block?
yes, and if you’re a writer and say you don’t, then you’re not a real writer. as w/life, there are times when you stammer in the corner, struggling for the right phrase or word to express something or reach out to a person or persons…
15. What is the next thing you are going to write?
possibly another blog post or an email to one of my Muses… not sure 🙂
