Questions asked by
storydivagirl
1. What makes a book "good" in your opinion?
Characters. There always have to be a) brothers or b) best male friends or c) a vulnerable male character. It doesn't matter if the book is gay, het or gen but it has to fit at least one of these three parameters.
2. If you could save only three things in a fire (people excluded), what would they be and why?
My laptop, my desktop and my papers (like the driver's license etc.). The first two because they are the most expensive things I own, the last one because papers are pain in the ass to replace.
3. Is there any causes/political movements/etc that you think are important to get involved with? If so, what and why?
Yeah, I hate politics and I try to stay way away from them but I could be persuaded to get involved in fighting for the rights of gay people. I can't believe the prejudices that still prevail in the 21st century!
4. What's the greatest lesson you've learned in your life so far?
If you want to have something done, don't rely on others doing it for you. Move your ass and do it yourself!
5. You could have dinner with an literary character - who would it be and why?
Literary? As a character of a book? At the mo, Rennie Shaw or Ukiah Oregon from the Ukiah Oregon series by Wen Spencer. And why? Because these books raised my interest in wolves and wolf packs. I think that wolves are ones of the most amazing creatures on earth :) And it doesn't hurt that they are both "stud muffins" as another character in these books called them :D

Date: 2006-04-27 04:13 pm (UTC)My Pink Panther named, very originally by my younger self, Pinkie. I've had him since I was two, there's cine film of me dragging him round the garden and he is bigger than me, lol! I've had to replace his felt eyes several times and currently one has dropped off again, but I still love him.
2. what's your most favorite book ever?
I can't really say. I like so many books for so many different reasons, it is too hard to choose just one ^^;! I'm being a bit of a cop out, aren't I? Okay, I do love Lynn Flewelling's Nightrunner series, not only because of Alec and Seregil, but because they were the first novels that I had ever read that included gay relationships... and you recced them to me ^_^!
3. What was the first manga you've ever read?
Honestly, I don't remember ^^;! But it was probably Episode Zero, Blind Target, Ground Zero or one of the other Gundam Wing books, as that's where my interest focused first of all.
4. If you had to choose one fictionary character for your husband, who would it be and why?
Ooh, this is a tough one because most characters I like you would not want as your significant other, lol! So I'm going to go with the current Doctor Who (10) as my life would certainly never be boring!
5. Does your conscience nag you when you lie?
Hell yes, and I feel awful inside for days! That's why I never lie unless it is unavoidable.
