It is an honor to be nominated for the Sunshine Blogger award. I just love the way it sounds, like I’m bringing light into someone’s world. Even if it is for just a little bit. The Lovely Slumdog Soldier nominated me and I am so thankful, thank you!

Tom’s questions for me:

1. Where are you from? I’m from a small town in Texas called Madisonville.
2. Do you think of yourself more as an early bird or night owl? I’m more of a night owl. Lately though I cannot stay up late or get up early. I just want to sleep all the time.
3. What is your birthstone? Yellow Topaz. I’m a November baby.
4. What’s your favourite season of the year and why? I would have to say winter. I detest the heat and bugs. I don’t like being cold either but it’s better than be constantly sweaty and eaten alive by bugs.
5. What’s a favourite quote that’s really inspired you? I can never think of a quote when I’m asked. There are so many but I guess I’ll use the one tattooed on my wrist: ‘If you don’t have shadows, you’re not in the light.’ Lady Gaga said it. It reminds me that no one is perfect so don’t try to be. 
6. If you could choose one fantasy world to visit for a day, which one would it be? The world of Harry Potter. Definitely.
7. How do you like to wind down after a busy day? I like to take a shower, get in bed and read a book. Preferably with a sweet treat.
8. What would your dream job be? A writer. I just want to write. I want to write books, blog posts, documentaries. Anything that informs, educates and entertains.
9. Why did you start blogging? To talk about things I think are interesting or to publish short stories that I write.
10. What have you enjoyed most about blogging so far? Meeting other bloggers and learning from them. I’ve met some pretty awesome people. There needs to be a convention so we can all meet each other in person!
11. Which of your own blog posts would you recommend to new readers first? Mormonism: A God Complex   It really shows what I want to do as a writer.
