1 are you still surprised when you get a new vote, follow or comment? 

Yes! I am just pathetically happy that someone enjoyed something I made.

 2 if you could hang out with your favorite celeb for a day, who would you choose and what would you do?

 I would go to Build-a-Bear with Batman. We'd leave by dropping smoke bombs. 

3 who is your favorite author?

 I don't think I have a single favorite; but Ursula K. Le Guin is probably the author who has made the biggest impression on me. 

4 what's your favorite snack?

 The supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies. They are the yummy middle after you have consumed the starry outer spiral arms.

 5 what's your favorite thing about Wattpad?

 I like the fact that there is actually a lot of diversity of thought here.

 6 what's the best way to handle a bully?

 At my ancient age, you just get up and leave.

 7 how would you celebrate a publishing deal? 

Gnome racing. What, you've never done it?

 8 what's one Wattpad goal?

 Get all my random short stories into a single book. Maybe actually write a novel. 

9 what's a song you enjoy? Who is the artist?
C is for Cookie, by the Cookie Monster.

10 what's your favorite book?

 So many! Anna Karenina is a blinding lesson in writing. Through A Scanner Darkly blew my mind, and the ideas are still relevant. The Fifth Season and its sequels are the very best modern fantasy books I have ever read. I loved reading the How To Train Your Dragon books to my kids. 

11 what's your schedule regarding your writing?

 Do nothing, get struck by inspiration, spend a weekend feverishly typing, repeat.

The River Ghasts of Lid is my fantasy short story collection. It only has two so far, but I am putting together a third at the moment. I am really enjoying the freedom that fantasy gives me, and I think you might enjoy that too.
