What is your Creativity Goal this year: MAKE ALL THE THINGS!!! 60k in words and knit all the yarn in my house.
What is your goal this year beyond that: Become more healthy, travel to Hawaii!
Where in the world are you: Massachusetts, USA
Current Fandom(s): H50, Star Trek AOS, Teen wolf, Inception, it goes on.
Earlier/old Fandom(s): Torchwood, Boondock Saints, BHD, and the list really goes on.
Do you Original fic? On occasion
Favorite comm(s): There are other comms? Nobody told me this!!!
Gen, Het, or Slash: Slash, Gen, Het, in that order. Can't manage to write f/f slash yet.
Languages you write in: English
Favourite 'go to' movie(s) and why: I watch everything over and over again. No tv reception so it's all stuff on dvd. CSI, Star Trek AOS, Teen Wolf, Harry Potter.
Favourite movie/TV show genre(s): I am all over the place, I like period stuff, war stuff, westerns, action, drama, chick flicks, just about anything except horror.
What inspires you? Everything. I can get inspired by a conversation, nature, movies, books, music, pinterest.
What type of creative project(s) do you find you can do easily: Knitting comes very easy, and writing comes easy with small scenes of fan fiction.
What type of creative project(s) would you like to get better at: Entire books of original fiction.
Coffee, Pepsi, tea, Coke, water, juice, vodka: Coffee, diet pepsi, water, juice. In that order.
Tell us about your Pet(s): Eggs is a Clumber Spaniel. He is my dookey sidekick. He sheds, drools, and most adorably snores. Both of us love hopping into my dookey car and driving around.
Do your friends/family encourage you to create? Yes, although my father's wife needs to stop telling me to write about the horrible people we know. But everyone who knows I write is 100% behind me.
Name a song that always makes you cry like a baby: Rainbow Connection. They played it when Jim Henson dies. Makes me bawl to think about all the wonders he'd have created with more time.
How's your memory: Like a steel sieve! Only the big stuff stays, all the fluid stuff leaks out except what sticks near the wholes then rusts and flakes.
Walk, jog, bicycle, car: Car. I love my dookey car.
I don't think that word means what you think it means: I'm always ... salt and shaker peppers. In fact I say 'saltandshakerpeppers' when ever I realize that I've changed the order of words in a common phrase.
And lastly, anything else you want to say, or finish with a gif that sums you up: I can't be summed up in eight words! ;)

If you like the period drama you have to get hold of UK BBC Desperate Romantics and Poldark (and yes both has Aidian 'kili' Turnerin it) if you haven't already.

I also generally mistype the word 'weld' when I type it. Which doesn't work well working at a wleding shop. ;)
