The Ice Crystal Q&A

thelazylady11: Hello, viewers. This is TheLazyLady11. You can call me A, that's the first letter of my real name.

Interviewer: Hello, thelazylady11. I've heard that you've started work on a new project, called "The Ice Crystal".

A: Well, yes, I have. I'm already on the twelfth chapter, and I started work on it several days ago. It just took me this long to publicize it.

Q: Shy, aren't you?

A: Maybe. Maybe not.

Q: How much longer do you think it'll take for you to finish it?

A: Some time. I'm not certain. Also, the title isn't finalized yet. It could change.

Q: Oh! Are other aspects of your story going to change too?

A: Maybe, but I'm not one for redoes.

Q: What's the story? I'm quite interested in it.

A: Well, there's this girl called Klara. It's set in medival or older Sweden despite me knowing nothing about Sweden. So, she gravely upset the local "lord" when she was seven, and her village is paying off a debt. Five years later, her brother discovers a tunnel to an world called the Ice Plains. They go in and, along other things, fight a troll, and meet a rude gnome. But their lord has come back to the village and increased the tax. Lucky for them, the Ice Plains has many crystals they can use to pay off the debt. Unfortunately, there's dark magic at play.

Q: That sounds hard! Where did you get the idea?

A: I saw a picture by sarahtrumbauer. It's a picture of an girl with an lamp exploring a winter wonderland, crystals scattered around, and a giant crystal in the distance.

Q: What gerne is it?

A: I guess I've been inspired by "A Wrinkle In Time", so I'd say it's kinda picked up some elements of Children's. Well, more then some.

Q: So is it meant for children?

A: Yes and no. I didn't really start writing it with an specific audience in mind.

Q: It sounds like a great story! Are you going to give us a preview?

A: Yes, but not in this interview. To find the five-chapter preview, just click on the tag "the ice crystal by thelazylady11". I'm fairly certain you're find the preview as quick as an jiffy! ...I guess I kinda sound old saying that, don't I?

Q: Who wouldn't sound old saying "as quick as an jiffy!"?

A: Okay, that's all, and have a great day!

In the 500 days since she controversially won the Opposition leadership contest, the question marks over her competence have not disappeared; if anything, they have metastasised. The Guardian’s cartoonist has taken to portraying her as “The Iron Deficient Lady”, lampooning her anaemic weekly performances at Prime Minister’s Questions. The red tops call her “Murray Mint”, the implication being not that she’s refreshing, rather that she “sucks”. And after a litany of troublesome “gates” (among them “Wiki”-gate, “Prick”-gate and “Loose Women”-gate), Murray has effectively become Private Eye’s cover girl. On top of all this are the presentation problems, the misjudged photo spreads and “Moustache Murray” headlines. When Scotland’s premier satirist Frankie Boyle tweeted a joke about Murray’s alleged “lip whiskers”, he even managed to get the hash-tag “tash-hag” trending worldwide. I ask Murray how she would like to be perceived by others. “As someone that doesn’t take herself too seriously but does take the job seriously,” she says. “A bit like Usain Bolt, really. I only wish I had his legs!” In reality, the perception is that she lacks ideas – or at least “non-terrible ideas”, as one elderly former special adviser to Murray told me. “Her gut reactions never produce anything more substantial than political flatulence.”

The Telegraph's interview with Nicola Murray, new head of the Opposition.

(I love it when the papers become meta - it's great. Not as awesome as Malcolm Tucker's thoughts on the election in 2010, but it's still brilliant and immensely quotable).
