Greetings, fellow writer! I do dearly hope you will indulge a lowly author such as myself as to a number of questions! Oh! But do not worry; there are very few questions on my list. Hmm, where to begin? At the beginning would probably be the most logical. 1. Who is your absolute favorite science-fiction author? If you are utterly lost beyond all hope of redemption into the mysterious realm of sci-fi, you may answer with multiple authors. Hmmm, I am not sure if I read any pure sci-fi authors. I like the sci-fi that McCaffrey and Cherryh write. David Brin is another that I like. *shrugs* 2. What type of computer do you have? Most specifically, what type of graphics card do you use for 3D accelerated programs such as those powered by OpenGL and DirectX? Why must you ask this of me? My computer is nearly 5 years old. It does not want me revealing that kind of information to other computers around the world. 3. How long ago did this mysterious "inspiration" first compel you to write? I have written for as long as my mom remembers. I used to write stories for my teachers as gifts and began writing for my school competitively in the 4th grade. 4. What sustenance did you ingest for your evening meal two nights ago? Hmmm, I think that I had Steaks stuffed with Feta, olives and spinach, Parmesan Rice, and croissants. Milk to drink. 5. Is your 'boss' a benevolent king or a tyrannical dictator? Hmmm, Benevolent Dictator. 6. Is the fellow we both know as "Coyote" on the IRC chat channels really a coyote, or is he really a fox? Could he perhaps be a fox in disguise as a coyote? Or maybe he really is a coyote but he disguises himself as a fox. Or maybe he's a fox disguised as a coyote disguised as a fox, but goes by the name coyote so we automatically assume that he is a coyote? Or perhaps he is a coyote disguised as a fox disguised as a coyote disguised as a fox disguised as a coyote, and revels in double-reverse-backwards psychology? No, he is simply a fox who people misinterpret as a Fox. But we won't go into detail why they think he is a fox... 7. Has the urge to pick up a lightweight electrified fretted musical instrument ever struck you? Do you often play said instrument? I have been tempted, yes, but never went through with anything. 8. Would it do me well to create a signature for myself? Yes, it would. 9. Have you ever attempted to coax pleasing tones out of your vocal chords in the manner known as, "singing?" I sing very often. In a choir setting I am a second alto, for I sing in the lower register. I have sung before crowds before and enjoyed it. And the crowds were a formal setting. 10. What is the thickness of the D string that is currently on my favorite guitar, in millimeters? The correct width for that guitar. 11. What is your favorite drink that you ingest? Pepsi, green tea, or Chai tea 12. What is the favorite drink that you do not ingest? everyone else seems to think coffee is something special. 13. Is it really necessary to behave on the L&L IRC channels? I find it most difficult to restrain my urges to act like a moron. Moronic behaviour is admissable only if I am allowed to be funny adn goof around. 14. Which audio codec do you prefer? FLAC, MP3, Ogg Vorbis, AAC, AAC2, WMA, MP4, M4a, PCM, MPEG-2, TAK, BWF, RAW, AIFF, MPC, AU, GSM, VOX, DCT, ATRAC, RA, RAM, DSS, VOC, MSV, VSF, IKLAX, or CDDA? I recognize only 3 of those. I don't even have a favorite. 15. It may have come to your attention that I am both an approved author and an approved artist now. Before, I have generally referred to myself as an AA. However, both "Approved Author" and "Approved Artist" share the initials "AA." How might I resolve this paradoxical conundrum?Should I simply refer to myself as an "Approved Artist" and an "Approved Author?" Or does that put too much stress on the "Approved Artist"--for I am not truly an artist in any possible sense of the word--and belittles the "Approved Author?" Should I instead refer to myself as an "Approved Author" and an "Approved Artist?" But then again, typing that out takes too long, so should I refer to myself as an, "Approved Author and Artist?" Or does that take away from the Approved Author--since I do, after all, draw a little bit, and that qualifies me as an artist, doesn't it? Maybe it should be an "Approved Artist and Author?" But even that takes too much to type, so should I use individual acronyms? Should I call myself an AA and AA? Or will that confuse people too much between the individual AAs? How about AA and Aa? Or will people get confused as to whether AA refers to Approved Artist or Approved Author, and whether Aa refers to Approved Author and Approved Artist? What about Aa and AA? aa and aa? Aa and Aa? aA and aA? AA and aA? aA and AA? AA and aa? Aa and AA? aa and AA? Aa and aA? aA and Aa? Or should I lump them all together into one acronym? How about AAAA? Or would people get confused with a fictitious micro-battery size? How about AAAa? AAaA? AaAA? aAAA? aaAA? AaaA? AAaa? aaaA? Aaaa? aaaa? What if I just refer to myself as an "Approved Author and Artist," and so call myself an AAA? Will people, again, confuse me with a type of battery? How about AaA? aAA? AAa? aaA? Aaa? aaa? aAa? I would dearly appreciate your input on this most dire and horridly complicated matter! We discussed this. You are the Artistic Author. Alas, I must leave for today. But fear not! I will be back in the 'morrow...with 15 more questions. No FEAR!
