Sunshine Blogger Award

Sunshine Blogger Award 2

I was nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award by the beautiful and talented Kymber, whose story, Noble Doubt is one of my faves. Thank you so much, Kymber. 🙂 This nomination has be totally honored and stoked.

Here are the answers to Kymber’s questions.

What is your favorite TV show?

I’m totally showing my age here, but I LOVE The Twilight Zone. I could sit and watch that for hours. However, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention a sitcom or two here. I say two because it has to be a toss-up between Diff’rent Strokes and The Facts of Life. Some honorable mentions (but very high up on the list) are Little House on the Prairie and Highway to Heaven. How could I not mention them when Lenora has a son named Landon? 🙂

What color are your eyes?

Blue-gray

Do you collect anything? What?

Yes, indeed, I do! There are several thins, actually. Firstly, I collect (and use) fountain pens. I have nearly 300 pens in my collection. I love to color (yep, there are coloring books for adults), so I have scads of them as well as a boatload of colored pencils and other supplies. I can’t leave this question without mentioning my journals and planners, as I have a good number of those.

What is something you feel strongly about?

The Lions Club. I’m a very active member at both the club and district levels. They do marvelous work for folks with visual and hearing impairments with many clubs being very community-oriented. I was on the receiving end as a child (I required a number of visual aides due to my own visual impairment), so it’s nice that I can contribute and give back.

What is your favorite thing about storytelling?

I adore being able to bring my characters to life and find adventures and even harrowing experiences for them. I love my characters to bits, but I beat them up a lot so there is a good (and hopefully riveting) story to tell. I’m also a romantic soul with a supernatural heart, so I’m totally in my element when I can bring romance and the paranormal into a story.

Dogs? Cats? Both? Or none?

I love all animals, but I’m a doggy gal through and through. I’m a Golden Retriever fanatic (I have two of them) but have a big soft spot for Beagles. I get kinda weepy when I see a Beagle because the hubs and I had one we loved dearly. I go completely bonkers when I see a Goldie, and the two knuckleheads I have here crack me up and make me smile every day. 🙂
