cornerofmadnessI'll be here for the duration of the holiday. Speaking of which I have not mailed any cards yet because I'm on the struggle bus (sorry to my overseas friends, yours will probably be late) That said if you still want a card you can check it out here. or if you prefer an ecard that's cool too
I went to the Abney Park online Christmas concert as well tonight. it was fun but on the other hand they wrapped it early like by 15 minutes. It was a bit disappointing, like you couldn't find 2 more songs (the concerts are usually 1 1/2 hours)
Since I didn't do much of any interest let's have the last two![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
thefridayfive a day (and a week) late (because I really liked last week's but I was away at the con)
1. What did you want to be when you grew up? I wanted to be a doctor and a archaeologist
2. Did you follow through? If not, what happened? Yes I was a surgeon then life took that away from me. (I still study archaeology on my own)
3. Is your life turning out the way you thought it would when you were a kid? If not, is it better or worse? No and it is not better. I loved being a doctor and losing that has left a stain on my life mentally and financially
4. Paradoxes aside, if you could time-travel back to when you were 10 years old, what would you tell your 10-year-old self? Apply to more medical schools, keep writing, insure your hands
5. Do you think the child you were, would like the adult you've become? Maybe? It's hard to be sure. I'm nothing like I was as a child
1. Take a book you've read. Now take the main character. put them in a band. What would the band's name be? How about a book I wrote These Haunted Hills I'd select Josh for the band. They would be the Moxy Foxy
2. What instrument would that character play? He'd play guitar
3. Who else would be in that band? Brendan would have to be there and Cass
4. Would they stay underground or get popular? Oh they'd get popular and have fun with it.
5. Why did you choose that book? because I wrote it and thought it would be fun to do this.
Advent Joy
Day 14- think about your achievements and set new goals. I was published in three anthologies and had one novel published this year. I have also finished a YA novel as well and my goal is to edit the novel. I would love a beta for it but at least I have one other set of eyes on it. Or even better get a few more people interested in my by email critique group.
Day 14 tea- Valentine's Blend, this is black tea with hibiscus, cacao nibs, more chocolate, pomegranate and raspberry. This is one I buy all the time. It's yummy.
Also the FeTV station has started rerunning the old Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes mysteries. I loved him best.
