Reading, writing, karate, and hiking, and above all, getting on the NYT Bestseller list! (Or a bestseller list. Or, you know, just making enough at writing to quit my day job.)
Music
A little Timbaland, a generous amount of Shakira, and sprinklings of The Pierces, Joss Stone, Amy Winehouse, and celtic music.
Movies
Pan's Labyrinth is my current fave.
Television
Cash Cab and Graham Norton!
Books
Some of my favorites are Stephen King, JK Rowling, Billie Letts, Barbara Kingsolver, and Richard Adams. To list them all would mean taking up so much space on the MySpace server that it would crash.
Heroes
Most of the authors above, since they've showed me that it CAN be done.
About me: Surviving Serendipity
>Everyone wants to be special. Everyone wants to be a hero. But once a sinister stranger introduces twenty-one year old June to her destiny, she’d give anything to be a nobody again.
In a matter of hours, June’s whole world is turned upside down, as everything she’s ever believed in her life is revealed to be a lie. Ripped from her home on Earth, she finds herself on the planet Thallafrith, in the kingdom of Prendawr, a land under threat from enemies within and without. It is also, according to the sorcerer Halryan, her birthplace, where she is the sole surviving member of the royal family.
June embarks on a dangerous quest to save this strange world, accompanied not only by Halryan, but by Koen, Minogan, Errigal and Feoras, four members of a vanishing race of warriors known as the Valforte. But faced with starvation, attacks by ominously familiar creatures, horrifying revelations about her past and future, and the steadily blurring line between ally and adversary, June is pushed to the brink of her physical endurance—and her sanity.
June can’t afford to crumble, though, not with the entire planet depending on her and her alone for salvation. Drawing on reserves of inner strength she would never have believed she possessed, she pushes on, despite the fact that the way she’s going looks infinitely darker by the day. But even if she manages to save the planet from the doom it continues to spiral hopelessly toward, can she save Prendawr from itself?
