Interview questions from Laura (who now has a blog!):

1. Do you like poetry (at least appreciate it?) and who is your favorite
poet?

I do like poetry, though not so much that I seek it out when I’m starving for reading material. I even used to write it. Maybe someday I’ll post some of my pathetic attempts at poetry. When I’m relatively pleased with myself and don’t care what everyone thinks about me.

As for my favorite poet, I really enjoy the Romantics—Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats, Byron, Shelley. Many of Shakespeare’s sonnets are really nice

2. All the raspberries on the planet have disappeared. What kind of ice
cream would you eat now?

First let me state that this scenario is nothing short of disastrous. We’re talking armageddon here. But in the ice-cream world, it wouldn’t be too terrible. I adore Snelgrove’s Burnt Almond Fudge, and have recently become very hooked on Cold Stone’s Cake Batter. I’m also a fan of Pistachio Pistachio from Ben & Jerry’s and anything with caramel in it.

3. Miles or Ivan? :)

Miles. Duh. :)

    OK, I may sound like an idiot here, but who the heck are Miles and Ivan?

    You’re not an idiot. They’re two characters from Lois McMaster Bujold’s Vorkosigan saga– a 13-book (so far) sci-fi series I read recently. Highly entertaining.

    … and highly recommended, by the people who count (that is: R.J. Anderson and Larry Wall).

    But… “3. Miles or Ivan? :)”… Is that a QUESTION???!!!
