daegaer comes up with the best questions.

[derien]

1.Who was your childhood hero?

I don't recall having any heroes as a child. The closest I can think of would be Bugs Bunny. But he's not a bad role model - at least the later Bugs Bunny. In the earliest incarnations he was kind of a dick.

2.If (friendly) aliens offered to take you with them, would you go?

I discussed this with my best friend when we were kids, and we ended up deciding that they'd have to take along half the population of the planet, because we'd be unwilling to go without our families, and each person we added would probably add a few more people to take along. Now I probably have fewer ties than I did then, but still I wouldn't go without Eor.

3.What did you want to be when you grew up? Are you doing that now?

A writer and/or illustrator, or comic book writer/illustrator. Nope, not doing it. Though I'm trying to push myself to make time for working on it, I think I'm far past the age when I could actually make this come true.

4.Which book/series of books would you most like to be true?

Any one which posits that all stories are true, they just happen in alternate universes. (And now, Genie, for my second wish I'll have endless wishes, please...)

5. What is the most rewarding thing about long arduous bike cycling
trips?

I really don't know, as I'm not a cyclist by any stretch of the imagination. An arduous bike trip would be a mile, for me, and making it back alive would be rewarding.


This puts me on the spot - anyone wants to be interviewed by me, feel free to leave a comment and I'll try to come up with questions. :)

Oh, sure...knock yourself out. If you can come up with some questions, feel free to ask me. :-)

I'm still trying to come up with questions. I suck at this. :)

I begged, borrowed and stole....

...and scrounged up some questions.:)

1. A djinn takes you into a time-warp; you can take as much subjective time as you want, do anything you can imagine, and return to this moment with nothing changed. What do you do?

2. Elves or Dwarves? Why? (For extra credit: Expound upon why I should have given you more options.)

3. If you were designing the new version of humanity, what flaw in the current version would you fix first?

4. Is it better to travel or to arrive?

5. When you're sad, do you listen to music that cheers you up or goes with your mood? (For extra credit: Is there a song that never fails to cheer you up?)
