If you could be someone else for one day (anyone!) who would you want to be?
2. Name two books everyone should read.
Only two? Damn that’s hard.
i. Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss (beautiful words, beautiful story)
ii. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green (because yes)
iii. Kushiel’s Dart by Jacqueline Carey (I can’t at the moment remember if that’s the first in the series…but that series, yes.)
iv. A Game of Thrones by George RR Martin (and the whole series-but my favorite is the third…probably)
v. The Black Prism by Brent Weeks (I think that’s the first one…again, not sure)
vi. The Giver by Lois Lowry
vii. Two Kisses for Maddy by Matthew Logelin (I might have spelled the author wrong)
Can you tell I read a lot? Sorry. That’s about as short as I can make the list, but I have oh so many more.
3. One thing you can’t live without.
BOOKS (I don’t know if you could tell)
4. What’s your best memory of school?
High School AP US History Class as a whole--the most educational class I have taken, not necessarily in context (though interesting) but in the way it shaped my life choices thereafter, and the way it taught me to think and to study. The story of the history is what is important, not the dates, but the humanness of the past--the things we gloss over, the things we forget--that the past is not perfect.
5. Who inspires you and why?
Writers, artists, people who make beautiful things and beautiful words. They make the world a better place and I am thankful and inspired by every one of them
Also, people who are coping with loss, because it reverberates with my own life and makes me feel like we can all share our stories and that a part of our friends and loved ones can live on in this world through the people they have left behind.
6. What’s your favorite dessert?
7. How do you feel about public speaking?
I’m alright with it. I’m not great at creating words to say but I have no problem speaking in front of people just in writing the speech
8. If you could go back in history, who would you like to meet?
Tycho Brahe, he seems like a fun guy.
9. Are you a dog or cat person?
I have had both and enjoyed both. I think cats speak to my soul in the leave me alone but love me sort of way, whereas dogs just love you no matter who you are and are just genuinely excited to see you every day. Both is good.
10. What’s the first thing you notice about people?
11. Name one movie that changed how you see life.
1. What is the best gift you have ever given or received?
2. What book(s) have changed your life?
3. What is your favorite color?
4. If you could have one day with anyone (past or present) who would you choose?
5. And what would you do?
6. What is your favorite TV show? (clearly you can choose more than one-as I could not choose just two books)
7. If you could do anything for the rest of your life what would you do? (not having to worry about how to make a living)
8. What is your favorite charity or charitable organization?
9. Do you like where you live?
10. If you could change anything about your life (but just one thing) what would it be?
11. What was the last book you read?
