Pooja recently did an SBA and when I went looking, the last time I had done one was back in '19, so it seemed like it was time to participate again. Give me something to write about besides a book review anyway :-D Plus, sunshine, amiright?
Rules For The Sunshine Blogger Award:
- Display the award’s official logo somewhere on your blog.
- Thank the person who nominated you.
- Provide a link to your nominator’s blog.
- Answer your nominators’ questions.
- Nominate up to 11 bloggers.
- Ask your nominees 11 questions.
- Notify your nominees by commenting on at least one of their blog posts.
Questions:
What inspired you to start blogging?
I discovered Blogspot when google bought it in 2003 or so. It allowed me to write and to stay in contact with my scattered friends and family. Over the years blogging has changed as I have changed and now I mainly blog about the books I read. Of which there are a lot.
What is your favourite movie?
Die Hard. Bruce Willis will always live in my head as John McClane.
Which season do you prefer most and why?
The Autumn. The mornings are crisp, the sun is still strong in the afternoons, harvests are happening and the Pumpkin Festival is right around the corner!
If you could be a fictional character for a day, who would you be?
Garric, the main character from David Drake's Lord of the Isles series. He is a Chosen One and I love those kind of stories.
What was your favourite game growing up?
The Farming Game. It made Monopoly look like a scrawny chicken. My friends and I would have sleepovers and we'd set things up the night before, get up at 7am and then play the entire day and if we were lucky, finish that night.
Other than blogging, what hobby or hobbies do you enjoy?
Reading. It's actually what drives my blogging :-D
What is the last TV show you watched?
The 3 Stooges on Tubi.
What is a dish or food that reminds you of your childhood?
Chicken pot pie, just like Mom used to make it!
Is cereal technically soup, why or why not?
Cereal is most definitely NOT soup. I don't know how anyone could ask that question with a straight face.
What would you do if you could live forever?
Pull of a massive heist so I could hire authors to write books for me. I'm going to need a LOT of books to last forever ;-)
Who was your first celebrity crush?
This was an easy one. Cindy Crawford doing that Pepsi commercial in '92. It burned itself into my brain and has never left.
Now comes the part where I'm supposed to nominate 11 of you and ask 11 new questions and continue things.
First, consider yourself nominated. Because if you are reading this, that means you have a pulse. That's an absolute must for bloggers! ;-)
Second, I will officially nominate 11 bloggers who "follow" me and appear to be active but don't interact with me.
Thirdly, I will actually ask 11 new questions, but they will be Bookstooge-esque questions, so you might have to think a couple of extra seconds to answer them. And thanks to Pooja for kicking things off.
My Nominees:
My Questions:
- Why Would Anyone Consider Cereal to be Soup?
- Why Do You Blog?
- How Do You Justify Your Existence? (I got that one from the Tales of the Black Widowers, good isn't it?)
- How Do You Choose Who to Follow?
- If John McClane and John Wick were tied on a railroad track and you could only set one of them free, which would you choose and why?
- In a game of Parcheesi, who would win, Spongebob Squarepants or the Doom Slayer?
- Do you feel guilty about all of my oxygen that you are breathing?
- What is your favorite movie?
- If you were going to be "accidentally but on purpose" killed tomorrow, how would you spend today?
