How did you get started writing?: I'm not sure; I've been doing it a long time. I know I wrote my first "novel" when I was 14. And even before I could write, I was a storyteller; my grandmother told me about how when I was little, I would act out stories I made up with my toys.
What are you working on right now?: For 2011 I have three goals: write 500 words a day, write a short story every week and submit one once a month (or is that two separate goals?), and to get at least one novel edited and submitted.
What are your goals for that project?: I'd like to get at least a few of the stories published, of course. Right now, though, I'm trying to get myself used to submitting on a regular basis.
Favourite novels/writers: there are so many to choose! My favorite novel in 2010 was Feed, by Mira Grant. My favorite book of 2011 (so far) is House of Discarded Dreams, by Ekaterina Sedia. The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings are overdue for a re-read, and I'm going to pick up Lois McMaster Bujold's latest Vorkosigan book as soon as I can.
