  01. Leave me a comment saying, “Interview me.”
02. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
03. You will post the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves) on your blog or journal.
04. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
05. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions. And so on and so on and so on…

Adam asked me these so here goes….

1 - What one album would you want to have if you were stranded on a desert island (well assume that the island has solar power… for some reason)?

Tubular Bells 2 I think. I’ve always absolutely adored both one or two - or possibly War of the Worlds.

2 - If you could meet any person/character/deity/thing/alien/small rodent be they from fiction, past, present or future, who/what would it be?

I think I’d really like to meet the first alien to encounter humans. And find out what he/she/it thought of us, at first blush.

3 - What to you most represents hope?

Hope is the eternal wellspring that allows us to see the best in everything. So every time I see something good - experience something that makes me smile - or even just find someone that I thought I’d lost, I’d say that’s a fair representation of hope. The kids bring me hope - you guys do too, in many ways :)
4 - If you could gain the ability to shape shift into any one real world animal which would it be?

Tiger! I’d like to be tame, and understood as such, but still a tiger! :D
5 - Which would you rather have, if any, Omniscience or Omnipotence?

LOL…one could say as an author, I already have both in my universes. And then, they do something that surprises me and I’m glad that I don’t completely control them, but I’m still technically omnipitent. That’s what I love about writing I guess.

I don’t think I’d like either IRL - we don’t have the capacity to control, KNOW and shape everything without screwing up somewhere. To err is to human - to really foul up is to try to change the universe ;)
