What is your Creativity Goal this year: To write more, to make graphics more and to finally vid some of the ideas I've written down.
What is your goal this year beyond that: I've way too many to name
Where in the world are you: North Carolina
Current Fandom(s): Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly, Andromeda, Hercules the Legendary Journeys, Charmed, Farscape, True Blood, Star Trek, Stargate Atlantis, Stargate SG-1, Supernatural, The Originals, The Vampire Diaries, Fifty Shades of Grey, Once Upon A Time, Stolen Women Captured Hearts, Doctor Who(2005) P.S. I Love You, Once and Again, Moonlight, Bitten, The Hobbit, Merlin, Sherlock(BBC), Dark Matter, Being Human US,.... I know there are a lot more but none are coming to mind
Earlier/old Fandom(s): My old fandoms are my current fandoms as well. I don't let go of a fandom just because I find a new one. I just welcome them into the fold
Do you Original fic? Yes, sometimes
Favorite comm(s):
Gen, Het, or Slash: Pretty much all
Languages you write in: English
Favourite 'go to' movie(s) and why: Tequila Sunrise, People Will Talk because no matter what's going on those movies are guaranteed to lift my spirits.
Favourite movie/TV show genre(s): I really don't have a favorite genre. I watch a movie based on who stars in it. The only genre I won't watch is horror.
What inspires you? Anything and everything. Sometimes I'm amazed at what does inspire me.
What type of creative project(s) do you find you can do easily: In Fandom: writing porn it just comes to me (if you'll pardon the pun) In RL crocheting
What type of creative project(s) would you like to get better at: all of it
Coffee, Pepsi, tea, Coke, water, juice, vodka: Water and hot tea
Tell us about your Pet(s): I have two Great Danes (Hercules and Sammy) They are both inside dogs and are great big babies. My olderst daughter has a Maine coon cat and she brought him inside and they almost had a heart attack. They screamed and ran and hid behind me.
Do your friends/family encourage you to create? My friends do and so do my oldest two daughters. My other kids are too young to care except if I'm crocheting something for them and then they're all for it.
Name a song that always makes you cry like a baby: Country Bumpkin by Cal Smith or Teddy Bear by Red Sovine. There are others but there's no use in proving what a big baby I am.
How's your memory: Eh, comes and goes. I use post it notes a lot.
Walk, jog, bicycle, car: Walk or car
I don't think that word means what you think it means: Good writing is hard. It's my experience that even when my writing is bad it's hard!
And lastly, anything else you want to say, or finish with a gif that sums you up: Photobucket's being a pain uploading gifs so I'll just say I welcome any and all new friends. :D

I love that writing porn comes to you too; it's been one of my go-toes for a long time (I was a little surprised how easily it 'came' to me initially, but now I worry that I've said it all! Here's hoping there's still more to arrive!)
