Name: I'm known in these parts as H LJ age: coming up 11 years (OMG, how'd that happen?) What is your Creativity Goal this year: 50K words, 105 graphics What is your goal this year beyond that: GO TO HAWAII WITH KAIGE IN SEPTEMBER!!! Where in the world are you: Auckland, New Zealand Current Fandom(s): H50, The Flash, Arrow, Star Trek (AOS), Torchwood, Firefly mainly, but a few others poke their noses in now and then Earlier/old Fandom(s): Lost and LOTRips, and there's the other odd thing I've done that I probably won't repeat (crayon fic, anyone?) Do you Original fic? YES, but not nearly enough - read it, write it, hope to one day publish but probably won't... (lazy) Favorite comm(s): THIS ONE! Are there any others? Actually, fandom_grammar is pretty darn amazing Gen, Het, or Slash: SLASH, SLASH & SLASH, although occasionally I take off the glasses and do gen. Once or twice, I even manages het *nods* (yes, it was a miracle) Languages you write in: Only English, really. I dabble in gobble-de-gook Favourite 'go to' movie(s) and why: THE PRINCESS BRIDE. Because, really, how not? I know, inconceivable, right? Also Life of Brian and Monty Python's Holy Grail, and then there's Alien and LOTR/Hobbit, plus Star Wars and Grease. Tremors, Fright Night, the Terminator and Fast & Furious *drools over the dearly departed Paul Walker* Favourite movie/TV show genre(s): Horror-comedy, SF-comedy, cartoons, action What inspires you? anything that takes my fancy. I used to have muses whispering on a daily basis, but since I got older it's harder to hear them. Kaige is pretty good at insisting on prompting me at times What type of creative project(s) do you find you can do easily: writing is pretty easy as long as I actually open up a document, but I'm way better at character-study than at plotting. I've been told my sex is pretty hot most of the time! What type of creative project(s) would you like to get better at: PLOTTING! Coffee, Pepsi, tea, Coke, water, juice, vodka: Water or juice most of the time, although there's nothing like a hot chocolate or mocha on a cold winter's day Tell us about your Pet(s): One of my cats, Cody, is currently throwing up in the hallway - you needed to know that, right? (yes, I'll clean it up in a while. Thank God there's no carpet down there!) My other cat, Zac is sitting on the bed, listening to his brother throw up... (if only I could train him to clean up) Do your friends/family encourage you to create? I have to admit, mine mostly don't care, although I have a slasher daughter, which makes for an interesting life and makes me quite proud in a way! Name a song that always makes you cry like a baby: Alison by Elvis Costello and I don't even know why! I think it's the heartfelt way he sings it. My aim is true... How's your memory: Like a bleeding goldfish, and the sad thing is that I keep thinking 'I'll remember that' even when I know it's so bad! Walk, jog, bicycle, car: Can I just sit still? HA. I actually went for a 2 hour walk in the native bush with my Hubby and older daughter yesterday, so I'm getting fitter, honest! I don't think that word means what you think it means: I always type 'becasue' instead of 'because' and 'toehr' instead of 'other' as well as other (HA) assorted typos, because (HA) my fingers seem to be unevenly fast and hey, THOSE ARE THE RIGHT LETTERS, you work out the order! And lastly, anything else you want to say, or finish with a gif that sums you up: I may be a sandwich short of a picnic most days, but who needs sandwiches anyway? GIVE ME CAKE!!!
