I’m a bit behind with this. Oops
  I was tagged! Here are the rules.
 1: Share 11 facts about me
 2: Answer 11 questions from the blogger that nominated me
 3: Nominate up to 11 awesome bloggers and write 11 questions for them to answer
 I was tagged by @chriskarlyle
 1: I was the “goth” kid in highs school. Wore black almost exclusively and when I wore make up it was typically black eye shadow and black lipstick. On occasion I would also use some eye liner to do designs to the side of my eyes (like the Eye of Horus). Or I would look like Brandon Lee in The Crow.
 2: Unlike @chriskarlyle, I was not homeschooled, but I also finished High School at 16. I was able to test out early.
 3: My favorite animals are wolves.
 4: I have 6 tattoos. Well, depending on who you ask. My sister thinks of it as 5 since I got two of them on the same day, and same area. 10 points to anyone who can guess what one of the tattoos is
 5: I quote movies and shows frequently. My family quoted a lot of movies fairly often when I was growing up, and I still do it to this day. Usually it is a lot of the same movies from my childhood that I’ll quote. Just a couple examples are movies such as: Army of Darkness, Death Becomes Her, Waterworld, Robin Hood, The Fifth Element, Kindergarten Cop…
 6: Hehe, stealing another one Chris! I like Star Trek. Now, I don’t consider myself a Trekkie by any means, but I grew up watching the shows and movies with my Dad. And I may or may not have this shirt…
 7: I almost never wear make-up. I find it to be a pain and I don’t think I’m very skilled at it. If I have an interview, or a date night… then I will generally stick with eye shadow, mascara, and lip stick. Though I won’t lie… I do miss the black make-up of my high school days sometimes.
 8: My main “celebrity crush” is Milo Ventimiglia. I actually got to see him last year at Comic Con, but my wonderful anxiety kept me from trying to talk to him or get a picture with him. Le sigh.
 9: I crochet. Blankets, beanies, amigurumi… I feel like a lot of the stuff I’ve done so far are nerdy things. Some of the blankets that I’ve made (or one is in progress): The Punisher, Mega Man, and the Red Mage from Final Fantasy (think 8-bit sprites for the last two. Blankets made with squares).
 11: I draw a little bit. Not often, and not well necessarily. Pen and ink drawings
 Here are the questions I was nominated to answer by @chriskarlyle
  1: What is your favorite guilty pleasure song? Uh… I honestly don’t know. Because Boobs by Psychostick?
 2: If you could live in any book / movie / TV show universe, which one would it be and why?Â
Man… that’s a hard one. I feel like I like too many things to pick one. Probably a world with magic or supernatural elements though.
 3: Your house, containing everything you own, catches fire. After saving your loved ones and pets, you have time to safely make a final dash to save any one item. What would it be? Why?
Practical answer would be the file box with all important documents. But aside from that, maybe the case with my flash drives. They contain a lot of the pictures of my family, as well as my writing work.
 4: Would you rather be famous, but only because somebody else made you famous, or would you rather make somebody else famous, but nobody knows who you are? Why?
Hm. I don’t care for either I guess. As far as making someone else famous, I think it’d depend on who, and how they were made famous. If I helped them with something big, and it was someone close to me, I’d be hurt if they themselves didn’t recognize the help they got from me.
I want people to read my novels someday and I would love to make enough money off of it to write full time. If I became famous for that because of someone else, I guess that’d be OK?
 5: What is your favorite genre to read? What is your favorite genre to write? (I know it’s two questions, but it felt cheap to make them separate)
 I don’t really have a favorite for either. I read a variety of genres. I think it really depends on my mood at the time, but I suppose that I might lean more toward things like Fantasy and supernatural. Love me some magic, vampires, werewolves, ghosts, etc
 6: If aliens came to Earth, do you think they would be friendly, or would try to conquer Earth?
Hm, well, the aliens could be coming to our planet because: Something is wrong with their own world and they need help or a new place to inhabit. If they need help, I assume they’d be friendlier in order to get the aid they require. If they needed a new planet to live and have the means for war- conquer Earth. If they do not have the means- friendly.
Or, maybe they are curious about other planets like humans are and would come with friendly intentions, but be prepared in case things went sideways. Maybe their curiosity would lead to things like experiments on humans.
In short, I don’t know. There are a lot of variables.
 7: Is your writing space tidy or messy?
It goes back and forth. During semesters that I have school, it can get messy with my books and such. In between semesters it stays cleaner.
 8: What author or book had had the most impact on your own writing?
I have no idea. I actually can’t remember what kind of things I was reading around the time that I really started to sit down and write. Since then, I have been through many books and authors. I could pull some names out like Stephen King, Anne Rice, or J. R. R. Tolkein but it wouldn’t really be accurate. No one book or author has had the most impact, it is many different ones that have impacted me.
 9: If there was anywhere in the world that you could go to write, where would it be?                                                 Â
You can write anywhere. As long as I’m comfortable and have a good space to do it, I think I’d be good. However, I think I would enjoy writing in Ireland.
 10: Is there a famous book or series that you feel you could have written better? Which is it and why?
Probably a couple. Usually they’re books that I won’t even move on to the next, or potentially won’t even finish the first. Though I like to finish a book when I start it.
That’s all I have. No specifics come to mind at the moment. Sorry
 11: What does writing mean to you?
Writing means a lot to me, to say the least. I started reading when I was young simply because I loved reading. As my depression grew, reading became a form of escape. Maybe some of my interest in writing came from that as well. Now that I’m older, I write because I like to create my own worlds, my own people. Maybe someday my writing will be the escape someone else needs. Whether it is because of something serious, or simply because they like being immersed in a story someone else created.
 I tag anyone that is willing to do this! The few people I know that would actually fill this out, were tagged before I was lol. So I can’t tag them.
1. How old were you when you started writing?
2. How many books or short stories have you written?
3. Pick one of your favorite books. What is one thing about the book that you would change (if anything)?
4. Do you have any interesting habits while writing? For instance, some famous authors are known for writing while standing, or lying down. Others for writing long hand. Etc.
5. Does your writing space have to be separate from where you do other forms of work at home?
6. Do you have critique partners or other writer buddies?
7. Do you use a pen name? Why or why not?
8. Do you keep a notebook with you, or keep notes in your phone for when you get ideas when you’re away from home?
9. Most irksome thing someone has said about you being a writer?
