A while back I was nominated for the Sisterhood Award by Emily McConnel over at The Imaginary World of Emily McConnell. The following is the answers to the ten questions she posted as well as the ten new questions I made up. Yet, since I don't have ten blogs to tag, feel free to answer these questions in the comments or use these questions as possible writing prompts :)
Okay, here are my answers to Emily's questions!
You discover that someone you’ve known your whole life is in fact- not real. Reaction?
Fictional characters are awesome!
Favorite old TV show? (has to be earlier than the eighties)
The Big Valley
You open your door to discover the dandelions in your yard have actually turned into real lions. How are you going to take care of this problem?
Start singing songs from the Lion King.
Guinea pigs or chinchillas?
Guinea pigs because I know funny stories about them.
Do you follow world/national news much?
Lately, yes. Although I find much of what I hear infuriates me. I am not a big fan of our current government.
What’s your favorite verse in Revelation?
Revelation 22:20 NIV
He who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I am coming soon."
Which Nordic (Scandinavian) country do you want to visit? Sweden, Iceland, Finland, Denmark or Norway?
I am actually working on a little experiment of combining languages from a few of these countries to make my own language for a story. I kinda want to be a world traveler and visit them all.
Do you know what the Baltics are?
I know they are from history but that is about it.
If one of your fictional characters (or a character from your favorite TV show or movie or book) was to be your mentor, who would you choose and why?
Detective Kate Beckett from the TV show Castle. She seems to not let a lot of things bring her down and always tries to do the right thing while looking out for those she cares about.
And finally- would you rather be bucked off a horse and break your arm and a rib, stepped on by an elephant and break your leg or nearly drown in a river?
Aw well, nearly drowning sounds less painful. You recover a lot quicker too.
