1. What was the last Stephen King story you read & when did you read it?
Finders Keepers... finished it about a month after it was released
2. Name one goal you’d like to achieve before the Green Ripper comes calling.
I would like to have reached financial security for my family, pay-check to pay-check is terrifying
3. Have you ever caught a fish? And if so, how old were you when you caught your first?
Many. My father took us out lake fishing right from when I could walk
4. Who would you like our next president to be? You can be specific or in general, a governor, a senator, an unknown…but not your self.
Not really my place to say, but I would like Trump to soon lose steam
5. What are some of the things you did as a child, young person, teenager, over the summer months?
Swimming in the river, making "hobo-stoves" and cooking chips on them, hut building in the forest, bike riding, street rugby and cricket, "bull-rush", horse riding, working (waitressing/retail/motel cleaning)
6. Have you ever written anything fictional, story, poetry, memoir with the idea that one day others might read it?
Yes
7. In the area where you were born & raised, what is one thing (or more) that you experienced that was unique to that area? (could be a style/name of clothing, a food or beverage known in that local area as whatever, whereas these same or slightly different items are known by other names in other areas, or maybe it was a game you played, familiar only to those in that particular area)
"Foxton Fizz"... a fizzy (soda?) drink produced in our lil teeny town.
8. Have you ever explored a religion with which you were previously unfamiliar?
Yes
9. What was your driver’s education like?
Oh boy... dad started teaching me but that didn't last long because he was too scary, my brother ended up teaching me.
I did also take a course in high school for a couple of weeks, but when my test time arrived, I was hobbling around on crutches from a soccer injury and ended up failing the test.
After that I...
10. Have you ever grown some of your own food?
Oh yes, I have had a regular vegetable garden for a few years now, it's not very large but I love growing things from seeds I've collected throughout the year.
I have just been preparing the soil this week for the coming spring !
Thanks, Walter Oobleck ... great questions!
