    I would rather trade intelligence over looks because I think intelligence can get you farther in life, and if I were a superhero my powers would be magic because of the wide range of possibilities in how it could work.

    I think I would choose a cold country, since I can't stand when the weather is too hot and I always have wanted visit Rovaniemi in Finland or Alaska.

    I think I would rather work in a perfect job, that win the lottery, because it's easy to spend all of your money at once, but if you have the perfect job, then it would mean that you have money always coming in and you can save up.

    My God, so many questions!


    Who is your hero? I had three heroes as a kid: Graham Taylor, Luther Blissett and Paul Weller. I'm sticking with those.

    If you could live anywhere, where would it be? Here, in London. Or Berlin.

    What is your biggest fear? The extinction of the human race, the possibility of the US electing a fascist in 2024.

    What would you change about yourself if you could? My tendency to procrastinate.

    What really makes you angry? Oh the usual stuff - the Tories, Brexit, xenophobes in general, misplaced apostrophes, poor grammar, the poor and overpriced public transport system in the UK outside London, tech evangelists, the tech behemoths..I could go on, you know.

    What motivates you to work hard? I'm not sure I do!

    What is your favourite thing about your career? The fact that people are often impressed by it.

    What is your biggest complaint about your job? The appalling pay. The way it's been decimated over the last 20 years by the Internet

    What is your proudest accomplishment? My first book being published in 2012.

    What is your favourite book to read? The Grapes of Wrath

    What makes you laugh the most? Silliness in general

    What is your favourite game or sport to watch and play?
    Football, in general, though I'm partial to cricket too.

    Would you rather ride a bike, ride a horse, or drive a car? None. I'd rather have someone else drive me.

    What would you sing at Karaoke night? Say You Say Me - Lionel Richie, or failing that It's Still Rock n' Roll To Me - Billy Joel

    Which would you rather do: wash dishes, mow the lawn, clean the bathroom, or vacuum the house? Definitely wash the dishes

    Who is your favourite author? George Orwell

    Do you like or dislike surprises? Why or why not? Only nice ones!

    In the evening, would you rather play a game, visit a relative, watch a movie, or read? Depends on the relative, the movie or the book in question!

    Would you rather vacation in a hot or cold country, and why? I'm British so definitely hot!

    Would you rather win the lottery or work at the perfect job? And why? I said in 1994 I would not do the British lottery until it became non-profit making. I'm still waiting.

    Who would you want to be stranded with on a deserted island? No-one

    If you could go back in time, what year would you travel to? 1989, the year of revolution. I was 19. Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive etc etc

    What are your hobbies? Running, playing football

    What is the best gift you have been given? Life, from my mother

    What is the worst gift you have received? Just all the lazy ones - my father used to always give me a £20 cheque EVERY birthday. I wasn't insulted by the amount, just the lack of imagination and the fact it implied that he had no idea who I was.

    List two pet peeves. The lazy way people misuse the word 'surreal'. If you saw a man walking a goldfish along the road - that would be surreal. Something nice happening to you that you weren't expecting is not surreal.

    The way people assume you're a 'Luddite' or generally odd if you choose not to take up every single latest piece of technology. Why would I want a smartphone? I need a phone to call and text people. I don't need to be endlessly surfing the Net - I'd rather look out of a window and dream.

    What was the last thing you recorded on TV? Match of the Day

    What was the last book you read? Prisoners Of Geography by Tim Marshall

    What's your favourite type of foreign food? You can't beat a good curry, though I'd dispute that that counts as 'foreign' in 2022. Curries are as British as queuing, drizzle and casual racism.

    What's your favourite fast food chain? Subway

    What would you change about yourself if you could? My anxiety. It's a constant obstacle in all areas of my life.

    What really makes you angry? Hypocrisy.

    What motivates you to work hard? A desire to improve myself, or to improve whatever it is I'm doing. Also spite; never underestimate the power of spite.

    What is your favourite thing about your career? That I get to create characters, worlds, complex relationships.

    What is your biggest complaint about your job? My legs and back can get pretty sore if I sit at my desk too long.

    What is your proudest accomplishment? Honestly, it's between writing my series and being strong enough to weather the worst parts of my life, becoming who I am today.

    What is your favourite book to read? I can't choose just one--that's impossible. :joy: I can list a few, though: Vicious by V.E. Schwab, Stardust by Neil Gaiman, and The Dark Half by Stephen King.

    What makes you laugh the most? Lately, my dog. His antics never fail to lift my spirits.

    What was the last movie you went to? What did you think? I actually don't remember. O_O I'm certain it was one I enjoyed, though.

    What did you want to be when you were small? A few things. I think when I was 6, I considered being a police officer. Then when I was 11, I was all about Paleontology. I've wanted to be a comic artist, but I also wanted to be a writer on and off throughout the years, too.

    If you could choose to do anything for a day, what would it be? Visit a different country, or go whale watching.

    What is your religion? Not really religious, but eclectic Pagan.

    If you could hire someone to help you, would it be with cleaning, cooking, or yard work? Cleaning, probably.

    Who is your favourite author? Tough call. I'd say V.E. Schwab?

    Do you like or dislike surprises? Why or why not? Greatly depends on what the surprise is and who it's coming from.

    In the evening, would you rather play a game, visit a relative, watch a movie, or read? I'd say read, game, or watch a movie. Evenings are wind-down time for me.

    Would you rather vacation in a hot or cold country, and why? I'm more of an in-between person. So somewhere during Spring or Autumn.

    Would you rather win the lottery or work at the perfect job? And why? Win the lottery. I already do what I love, but admittedly it doesn't bring in much financially. I'd love to be able to ensure financial security across the board, and donate to causes I'm passionate about.

    If money was no object, what would you do all day? Probably not much different from what I'm already doing.

    If you could go back in time, what year would you travel to? I'm torn between 95 (to better remember a good friend during a hard year) and 2002/2003 (to express something to someone at a time when it would have most mattered).

    What are your hobbies? Reading, gaming, collecting crystals, walking my dog. I'm not very exciting, lol.

    Aside from necessities, what one thing could you not go a day without? Coffee. I don't drink a lot, but I need at least a cup in the morning to get the engine running.

    List two pet peeves. Self-righteous attitudes and pushy people.

    Where do you see yourself in five years? Hopefully where I am now, but with more books released.

    How many pairs of shoes do you own? Including winter boots and slippers? Three.

    If you were a super-hero, what powers would you have? Tough choice. I want to say fire, but fire is difficult to control. I think I'd want flight or maybe general elemental abilities.

    What would you do if you won the lottery? Put a sizable chunk away, put another chunk into my daughter's account to secure her future, give a little to a few close friends/family, donate to charities, and also ensure we could do all the things we plan to do with our house.

    If you could go back in time to change one thing, what would it be? I don't know that I would, because even though I went through a lot of hell, I wouldn't want to prevent myself from having the life I have now.

    How many pillows do you sleep with? One, but I should really get one for between my knees.

    What's the longest you've gone without sleep (and why)? With absolutely no sleep? Over 48 hours. Staying up with friends; not really partying, but our version of it, I guess. Now as it getting 2 hours a night if I'm lucky? I've dealt with that for 2-3 weeks at a time.

    Are you a clean or messy person? A little bit of both, honestly.

    What's your favourite fast food chain? A&W. I love their burgers.

    Is your glass half full or half empty? Both. I'm a realist.


    That's all I felt capable of answering. :sweat_smile:

    What would you change about yourself if you could? I'd like to lose a bit of weight, simply for health reasons. Being heavy doesn't bother me from an appearance point of view as I quite like chunky guys and bears, but I do need to think about my health. Apart from that I woud change nothing. I like who I am.

    Would you rather win the lottery or work at the perfect job? And why? I would rather win the lottery and decide what I want to do with my time.

    Who would you want to be stranded with on a deserted island? Nobody. I wouldn't ever want to be stranded on a deserted island,

    If money was no object, what would you do all day? Probably voluntary work.

    If you could go back in time, what year would you travel to?

    How would your friends describe you? Kind, sensitive and thoughtful, I expect.

    If you could go back in time to change one thing, what would it be? The invention of nuclear weapons.

    How many pillows do you sleep with? Three.

    Have you ever had a secret admirer? Yes. It all got rather awkward.

    What's your favourite holiday? Somewhere scenic.

    If you could live anywhere, where would it be?
    I really romanticize living somewhere more rural or one of the Scandinavian countries that appears to be better quality of life. But realistically I can't picture moving from where I am now.

    What is your favourite family vacation?
    For the most we havent done many flights or long road trips -Peru was the most recent and [imho] exciting trip.

    What would you change about yourself if you could? Practically, 20/20 vision would be great. Don't really like my hair, but I'll got that tamed for the most part. Oh, and social grace lol

    What is your favourite thing about your career?
    For now it's more of a job, but least stressful and least social job I've had.

    What is your biggest complaint about your job?
    Early mornings and contract based

    What is your favourite book to read?
    I haven't read for fun in a long time. Not sure how I'd like them if I were to reread but I loved The Book Thief, Kite Runner and Three Day Road
    What makes you laugh the most?

    What was the last movie you went to? What did you think?
    The Lamb. It was good. For some reason I was hyping it up alot and was hoping it'd be better.

    What is your religion?
    Athiest.

    Which would you rather do: wash dishes, mow the lawn, clean the bathroom, or vacuum the house?
    Vacuuming is my "favourite" out of those. I HATE mowing the lawn. I hate how grass doesn't uniformly and at certain points it's hard to see where you have been.

    If you could hire someone to help you, would it be with cleaning, cooking, or yard work?
    Probably yard work or cooking.

    Do you like or dislike surprises? Why or why not?
    If I had to choose one or the other, dislike. I guess a part of it is a control thing. And at the risk of sounding bratty, I think I'm a hard person to "wow".

    In the evening, would you rather play a game, visit a relative, watch a movie, or read?
    Game or watch something

    Would you rather vacation in a hot or cold country, and why?
    Cold. Can always bundle up; I run hot.

    Would you rather win the lottery or work at the perfect job? And why?
    Work at the perfect job comfortably. Having a crazy ton of money would be great, but it's back fired for lots of winners. I'm not confident I'd handle it any better than most.

    Toronto's CN tower

    How often do you buy clothes?
    No more than like 5 articles a year. I still have stuff that fits and is presentable from years and years ago. I don't like shopping and try to buy quality over quantity.

    NYE
