1. Why do you blog?
I have no idea. It just struck me as something fun to do, and so I did it. This could explain why my blog topics are completely random.

2. Which author and/or book has most influenced you?
That is a tough question! Only one? I could list tons of writers and books who have influenced me through the years. The one that sticks with me the most is The Brother’s Karamazov. The next would be Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Saw There. The third and final would be Grimm’s Fairy Tales.

3. Which three blogs do you most visit?
Another tough one. I would have to say:
Mumpsimus at: http://mumpsimus.blogspot.com, Boing!Boing! at: http://boingboing.net and
The Lotus Lyceum at: http://lyceum.kapo.ws

4. Why do you read fiction?
To gather memories of other people and places.

5. What makes you laugh?
Word Games and unexpected violence.
