Gotten from my sweet friend hughville:


INTRO:
1. My real name is Katie and I live in the San Francisco bay area and I'm 49 and I have Asperger's and I love Hugh Laurie and my friends and good food and art.

IF YOU'RE AT ALL FANDOM-Y:
2. Do you have a current obsession? Hugh Laurie
3. The age you got into your first online fandom? not sure
4. What do you think of fanfiction? The age you read your first fanfic? I love good fan fic. the first fan fic I ever saw was a movie, not something I read. Yellow Submarine is Beatle fan fic and I saw that movie for the first time when I was only six! and it's still one of my favorite movies.
5. How much do you participate in fandom nowadays? I mostly write weird House fics, I read a lot of fic too.

IF YOU'RE AT ALL WRITER-LY:
6. Have you ever written fanfiction? Do you think it helped you develop as a writer? Yes and yes.
7. Been published? No.
8. What are you personally most proud of? most of my fics. i change my mind about which ones are my favorites a lot. Right now I really like "Incompatibility".
9. The best writing advice that you've ever been given. Write what you know. i notice a LOT of people follow that one.

IF YOU'RE AT ALL OTHERWISE CREATIVE:
10. Can you sing or play an instrument? I can sing,but not play any instruments.
11. What's the first thing you remember drawing? no idea.
12. Which creative project or achievement are you personally most proud of? not sure
13. What motivates you when you feel a creative block? different things, sometimes something somebody else wrote gives me ideas, not to copy them, but to go off with my own take on some concept.

IF YOU WENT TO SCHOOL/COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY:
14. Tell me about a teacher you remember. My bitch college English professor. she had some sort of grudge against me which i never understood.
15. Tell me a funny story involving class or homework. All i can think of off the top of my head is having to watch dopey "educational" movies in school sometimes and me and some other kids making MST type cracks about them because they were so bad.

35: me too <3

27: what were you doing onstage, in New York, at thirteen? I'm so impressed.

17-18: I think you could have answered both, either in your position as enthusiastic PFLAG member or in regard to your condition as atheist. Each of these needs a coming out, or indeed several, and I wish there were an atheist pride.

8. You need to put a link on the title of the fic, going to the fic :).

35. I have a lot of ideas for places for us to go as well as karaokegal's wanting to take you on her Mission/Castro tour.
27. in New York in the mid 70s there was something of a fad for shows w/ a lot of audience participation.
17-18. well, I'm out to my friends as an atheist but not my family because most of them are very christian (some of them are ministers!) and they would scream and scream and scream if they knew I was an atheist and i don't feel like dealing with that. I already told them i was "not religious" and they were really offended, especially my father. At least almost all my friends are cool about it. Only one acted like a butt so I had to disassociate myself from her.
8. damn. sorry about that. at least you already read it.

I don't think you write weird House fics. I think they are good. Very good.

Yay for Wodehouse!

thank you. of course I meant good weird, not bad weird. ;)
roomie has seen the Jeeves and Bertie shows for years now of course but he's just now starting to read the books.
