paperback mysteries, paranormal anything (real or fiction), holistic therapies, geeks, City of Heroes, G4 Attack of the Show, I love comic book art even though I can't draw.
Michelle Branch, Avril Lavigne, Enya, Blue October, All-American Rejects, The Fray, Jason Mraz, Moby, Madonna, Pink, anything with a good beat so I don't lose my pace on the elliptical
Movies
X-Men, Spider-Man, Hellboy, Constantine, Practical Magic, Jaws, Predator (There was no sequel. Do you understand?), Batman Begins (and only Begins)
Television
I watch way too much.
Cartoons: JLA, JLU, Batman TAS and the new one, W.I.T.C.H. (prob. my fav right now), Static Shock, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, The Life & Times of Juniper Lee (she rocks!)
Live action:
Supernatural, Ghost Whisperer, Monk, Psych, Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs, Eureka, Who Wants to be a Superhero, The Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, Clean House, How Clean is Your House, and now House.
Books
Pretty much exclusively paperback mysteries. Favorite authors: Susan Wittig Albert, Laura Childs, Cleo Coyle, Lilian Jackson Braun
Occassionally I pick up a holistic self-help book and actually read it but I own a lot that sit there getting dusty.
Comics: I highly recommend Black Summer and Green Arrow/Black Canary.
Heroes
My parents.
My husband who has had to repeatedly rescue this damsel in distress.
Wonder Woman, Hawkgirl, Buffy Summers, Juniper Lee (girls that kick butt and take names later)
This is a field I'm interested in learning more about. Plus, I'm in dire need of a make-over. I ruin clothes immediately so I never spend a lot of money on my own wardrobe.

Reviews and Interviews by me
Check out DynamicForces.com for some of my reviews of comics and collected work and interviews with creators.
I only have one rule for posters - if your HTML graphic hogs my screen it will get deleted. Be reasonable and keep your images to 200px wide preferrably less.
As a married woman, here's the approved list of celebrities I'm allowed to sleep with (if you haven't seen the Friends episode that started this, you have been living under a rock):
1. Seth Green
2. Bret Harrison
3. Amber Benson
4. James Roday
5. Jason Lee
I'm pimping out my other comic/art profiles below:
Comic Vine (http://www.comicvine.com/myvine/Amber/) - for blogging about comics and tracking pull lists, this site is so much fun! You'll get lost in it for hours.
Costume Blog (http://herofashions.blogspot.com) - my blog for creating costumes particularly superhero things and other sewing stuff
YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/amberthestylist) - Brand new changes to my YouTube! I'm no longer just an observer. I have a channel with comic book reviews. Please subscribe so you get all the updates! Mevio (http://fangirlreviews.mevio.com/) - Same deal as YouTube with RSS feeds to PodshowAlley. YouTube is far easier to use though there are times when Mevio won't have the same updates.
ComicSpace (http://www.comicspace.com/amberlove/) - the "myspace" for comic book fans which is far superior to the actual myspace garbage. If you love the superhero and zombie movies that have been made, if you're an artist or writer, or if you're just a general fan of the genre, move here.
Dynamic Forces (http://www.dynamicforces.com) - home for my higher quality written reviews and interviews with celebrities, creators, and anyone else who will return my emails.
Who I'd like to meet: Celebrities/Actors/Entertainers:
Oprah, Jennifer Aniston, Matthew Atherton "Feedback" (did it!), Chris Watters "Major Victory" (did it!), Amber Benson, Seth Green, Joss Whedon, Alyson Hannigan, Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, Justin Hartley (who has made the Green Arrow even yummier)
Writers:
Susan Wittig Albert (for more than a book signing), Laura Childs, Cleo Coyle, Lilian Jackson Braun
Fictional:
Batman (I crush on a fictional man. That's life.)

Hi Elizabeth-Amber, How are you? We just finished our new video SPELLFURY 2, can you please tell me what you think? We're trying to find an audience for it, so anything you can do to help get it out there would be much appreciated! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBGCsw4jCH8
:), I know how that is, the only reason I knew was because that episode was just on and it was fresh in my memory. I hope you still do the costume you would look great in it.
Thanks for the ADD, Elizabeth! I think you may like this...
Creator-owned comic/graphic novel coming soon. Can't post html, so you'll have to manually check out: http://www.dogeaters-manga.com for a free download of preview issue.
They told me that the April slot was already booked. Plus I've heard rumor that the Javits is being closed for renovations/torn down with a different center built in Queens...? Don't know how legit that it, but I've heard it a couple times!
Awesome! :D Thanks for the heads-up, otherwise we probably wouldn't have picked it up. That's great! I hope you're doing well. Will you be at NYCC again in '09? :)
