This Week's Questions:

Where is your favorite spot to read?

I'm embarrassed to say that my favorite spot to read is in my garden tub *Blushing* with  Calgon ("Calgon Take Me Away!")  and the whirlpool jets going . Because that is the only place during the day I can go without my family with me. :)

Are you a fast or slow reader? (you can test your reading speed here)

Well according to Staples I'm 13% slower than the average person. But I think it all depends on your comprehension. I really like to understand what I read not just read words. :)

Fanfition - Love it or Hate it? Have your ever read/written it?

I hate it and have never read or written any and don't plan on it. 

Summer or Winter?

Mmmmmm...well during the Summer I want Winter but during the Winter I'm always cold and want Summer....AHHHH! We live in the deep deep South so our Summers are 95+ many days.

Truth or Dare?

Truth

This Week's Questions:

Favorite restaurant?

 I love Japanese food and especially love sushi (Super Crunch). But give me Italian anytime and I'll be happy!! 

What is your view on self publishing?

 I think it's awesome. I have read some really great self published books. And some of my favorite authors  started out self published. It is always a good start. But don't just self publish to get your book out there too fast. Lots of errors are found in those books. And errors aren't cool. ;)

How do you feel about banned books? Do you have a favorite?

I totally agree with Kathy. There are certain books that don't belong in certain places. There is a place for them all. But I do, as a mom, censor what my children read. Some books are morally wrong TO ME. But I have to only answer for myself and my family. I haven't really thought about a favorite banned book but I do like Harry Potter.

Are you for or against books being made into movies?

Oh... sometimes I think they stink at making books into movies. Before every book "movie" comes out I try to read them before seeing it. In some cases I am very disappointed. It's like if I hadn't of read the book I wouldn't even know whats going on. Then there have been a few cases that the movie has done the book justice and maybe made it a little better.

Top 3 things on your bucket list?

I really want to travel around the US first and then over seas.

I want to see my kids both graduate from college.

I want to see them both happy and prosperous, with Christ #1 in their life.
