Danke to awesome author Nicki Elson for bestowing the Liebster Award upon me. LIEBSTER is a German word meaning sweetheart or beloved person. Nicki is indeed a LIebster!
5. You can only choose one:
would you rather write a book that's a best seller or a book that's highly
acclaimed?
This award is given to
bloggers by bloggers and gives glimpses into our lives. We give 11 fun facts
about ourselves, answer 11 questions, pass the award on to 11 bloggers and then
ask 11 new questions.
Okay, sadly I have to decrease the number from 11 to 5. I’ve had a really long
day at work and I still need to do some cleaning for book club tomorrow night.
5 Fun Facts about Me:
1.
I speak a secret language called “ive”. We spoke it on my college swim team.
Here are those same two sentences in ive: Ivi spiveak iva sivicrivet
livanguivage civalled ivive. Wive spivoke ivit ivon mivy civollivege swivim
tiveam.
2.
I’d like to get a dog, but I don’t know if I’m ready for the responsibility.
3.
My friend Eric and I judge those who don’t understand swimming etiquette at our
pool. We’re harsh!
4.
Almost all of my past boyfriends have turned out to be gay. I like the
unavailable types.
5.
My toes are as long as some people’s fingers. Flipper feet!
Questions from Nicki:
1. Les Mis or Sweeney Todd?
Les Mis fo shizzle! Jean Val
Jean is one of my fave characters.
2. What are the toppings on
your dream hamburger?
Pickles, cheese, lettuce,
tomato, mayo, mustard, ketchup
3. What city (that you've
never visited) do you most want to visit?
Barcelona, Spain
4. Favorite city (that you
have visited).
Chicago! (duh)
Best seller. I’m shallow
that way. And “highly acclaimed” is so subjective. I’d rather write a book that
makes ME proud and that evokes intense emotion in readers.
Now I get to pick 5 bloggers
and ask 5 new questions. I choose (and if you've already been tagged for this
award, consider your "obligations" fulfilled):
2. Kyra Lennon
3. Elisa Dane
4. Darcia Helle
Your new questions:
1. What’s your favorite
romantic couple? (stealing this one from Nicki)
2. Briefs or boxers?
3. When you became an author,
whose support or lack thereof surprised you the most?
4. What do you listen to on
the car radio?
5. What’s the kindest thing
somebody did for you?
Please stop by to let me
know when you've posted your answers because I definitely want to read them!
