My Answers to D.G. Hudson:
1- How long have you blogged?I created my blog in March 2010 so I've been blogging since then.
2 - Do you have a pet?
Yes! I have two very spoiled kitty cats (female).

Yes. Citizen Kane is one of my favorite ones.
4 - Do you pick male or female protagonists the most when you write?
I think I pick them equally. It depends on the mood or the storyline.

Neither. I'm not a fan of The Lord of the Rings. I don't dislike the film, it's just not my cup of tea.

Same answer as #5.

Sometimes in the office and sometimes in my bedroom (wherever it's quieter).

9 - Do you listen to Music while writing?
No, only when I'm editing.
10 - What is your favorite city?
Positano, Italy. Runners up: Washington, D.C. and Istanbul.

No. My cell phone is always off. The landline phone is in the kitchen.

ReplyDeleteThank you for tagging me, Claudia. I must admit to being somewhat nervous about this, but hey, I'm game for a laugh. :)
ReplyDeleteOne point I would like to make, I notice the questions are 'closed' in their wording, so anyone answering them could easily answer with a plain 'yes' or 'no' - which I admit would be rather uninformative. Is this intentional? Just making sure so that when I set up my questions I'll be following the correct protocol.
Looking forward to setting this up :) By the way, can you tag someone who has already been tagged? So if I wished to tag you, could I? God, I feel so much like a noob asking, but I need to know.
Thanks once more, Claudia :)
Apologies. I need to correct what I said regarding 'closed questions' - it would appear I was saying all were closed, but in fact I should have pointed out that only half were. Forgive me for that.
DeleteYay!
ReplyDelete1) What's your favorite classic (book)? - lots! Madame Bovary and Mill on the Floss!
2) Whose writing style would you like to emulate? I would love to write like Terry Pratchett! I can't!
3) Have you taken workshops to hone your writing? Many! I really enjoy the online writing courses from the Open University.
4) Do you have a mentor? A very informal one!
5) Which is your favorite cuisine? Baking! LOL!
6) Which is your favorite season? Spring
7) Which genre do you write/read? I am very eclectic in both!
8) If you had the chance to run off with one of your favorite characters, who would it be? James Bond played by Daniel Craig!
9) Which song brings you to tears? At the moment it's Espiritu sang by Thomas Otten
10) Have you used someone else's secret in one of your stories/books/poems? NEVER! lol!
11) Do you believe in soul mates? YES!!! :-)
Yay!!
Take care

That sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for picking my blog and placing me in such great company! I shall give this some thought over the next few days and pick some deserving bloggers to whom to pass this on. I'd love to see your answers to the questions you've posed us. :)
ReplyDeleteOy! You must hate me. LOL.
ReplyDeleteI can answer at least one question.
Re: 6) Which is your favorite season?
Any season that still finds me breathing. :)
Thanks, Claudia.
Nice to know more about you, Claudia. And thanks for tagging me. I think :)
ReplyDeleteDon't eat or drink while you're writing? What!!!!. Haven't you heard of procrastination?
ReplyDeleteMind, like you I can't write with sound eg music. Problem of a mono-mind
You are very sweet to think of me, Claudia. :) Thank you.

Interesting answers, Claudia, and now I know you're a cat person. Citizen Kane is a favorite of mine as well.

ReplyDeleteLike you, I write wherever I feel comfortable, and I don't eat/drink while I'm busy... unless I'm taking a scheduled break in between...
Hi everyone!
ReplyDeleteThank you to those of you who participated in the blog tag and everyone that shared comments :D
