Writing, but I guess that's pretty obvious!
Reading, especially books written for teens (it helps to know my competition!) I grew up reading science fiction and still love the genre and related genres--paranormal, supernatural, horror, magical realism, fantasy.
I'm a movie addict, both new and old
I love walking/hiking, especially in wilderness areas.
Camping is high on my list of favorite activities--real camping, in a tent, not "camping" in an RV. I like canoe trips, but prefer to avoid rapids.
I'm fond of Dobermans, snakes, skinks and birds, and love to nature-watch.
I once stayed up all night to watch a meteor shower. I highly recommend it.

書籍
If I had to name a favorite book, I'd say The Legacy of Heorot (Niven, Barnes and Pournelle) and the Dragon series by Anne McCaffery.
I think I've read the Lord of the Rings trilogy six times.
I read speculative fiction, which is a broad category--science fiction, both hard and psychological, paranormal, supernatural, horror and fantasy (but not so much high fantasy--all those names confuse me!)
I enjoy historical novels, once in a while.
And Shakespeare. Much, much Shakespeare, his tragedies, his comedies, his sonnets...
偶像
Christopher Reeve, Stephen Hawking, Michael J. Fox--for not letting their physical limitations limit them.
My first published book was middle grade, and the second is a teen novel. I have a second teen novel to be released in fall 2007, and another on the drawing board.
Debbie Updating my blog. Interview with Eric Luper, author of Bug Boy, a novel about being an apprentice jockey in 1934. Great book, terrific author. Check out my blog 於 2009/11/20。 檢視更多
is there anything wrong with thinking ahead? plus its raining here like u wudnt believe... not necessarily a bad thing... hope yr having fun anyway.. smile on
I used to have it on VHS. It was from a special, Masterpiece Theater rebroadcast that included maybe some of the last commentaries by Alister Cooke, which were really great. Sadly, I don't have it anymore. I'd like to get it on DVD, though I don't know if they include the AC commentaries. Hopefully, they're uncut. That show was pretty racy.
One thing I love about the series is some really great lines. Hey, let's play a little game. I'll write a favorite line. Let's see if you can identify it. Then you give me a favorite line. Okay, here goes:
"He's still the loveable young man we all know. I can attest to that."
BTW, Claudius's sister, Livilla, do you recognize her? She played Magenta in "Rocky Horror Picture Show."
BTW, I talked with an agent last night. Yeah, it was a drunken conversation, but he didn't run away screaming at my "pitch". I also made contact with a local book club.
Not a great summer... we had bushfires and had some personal battles... so welcoming autumn right now.. and getting back into writing... only paused briefly... the rejections piling up.. lol.. you know how it is...
Hows yr writing coming along?
well, i just thought that it had another meaning. oops. i guess i just looked into it to hard. some authors do weird stuff like that so i tend to over think things.
well thanks for adding me and commenting me. i really did like powers and choices. i will have to read the other one you have soon. if my local library has it then i will read it soon but if not i will have to pick it up at the book store. i was wondering about something. in the end of choices on one of the blank pages it said choice2. it wasnt a two but it was a backwards s. i was wondering if you were implying on a choices 2 or something. just curios. i am probably looking to far into because i wouldnt mind a second one...
