Eleven Questions I Was Asked:

(1) What most defines the decade you were born in?

Disco and Scooby Doo.

(2) Why do you write/draw/paint etc?

I write, because it is the one talent I was given. A psychic once told me I would die at the age of 43. I am trying to leave memories for my children.

(3) What is your favourite gangster movie?

Ummm…hmmmm… I have to admit to never even seeing “The Godfather”. Does “The Usual Suspects Count”?

(4) What song most reminds you of your teenage years?

GIRLS JUST WANT TO HAVE FUN… ‘Cause We Do! Always.

(5) What is your favourite period of history?

The 1920s before the crash. Women were so glamorous. Men dressed up.

(6) What is your favourite swear word?

The big F. But my children read this blog, so I keep it tame.

(7) What is your favourite TV programme?

GAME OF THRONES

(8) Describe yourself in three words?

Fun, Loony, Moody

(9) Name the person that influenced you the most?

My amazing grandma. She would dance wherever she chose. She ate dessert before dinner. She wore whatever she wanted. She had the most amazing laugh…The kind of laugh with the sound “hah” actually in it. She was beautiful. She was free.

(10) Do we, as a society, value beauty over intellect?

The fact that “The Bachelor” and “Jersey Shore” exist, would be a most noteable and unfortunate, yes.

The sadness that we are constantly perfecting plastic surgery, but have yet to cure cancer.

Loony Girl
