What does your ideal day look like? I’ve been thinking about this all day while I work, and I don’t feel like I have a great answer. Or, a satisfying answer. If I get only one day that is ideal, I get to sleep as much as I want, no one talks to me, the…

What emoji(s) do you like to use? First of all, all of them. They have the ability to confer joy or happiness in a way an exclamation mark doesn’t or can’t (as the standard-bearer of excitement in the punctuation world). They also can convey sadness, weariness, anger, annoyance, and frustration. But my favorites are the…

What does it mean to live boldly? This is not a phrase I have ever used, so I’m not sure I can comment on it. It is likely somewhat different from living italicized, though, because living italicized gets mixed up with living quote marks, especially when it comes to book titles, movies, tv shows, and…

I missed some days, so I’ll lump them all together. You can expect Mondays to be like this as I don’t check email over the weekends (and that’s where the prompts are sent). Jan 8: What do you like most about your writing? I don’t think about the things I write down as “my writing,”…

Or perhaps that’s just me. I can find something deeply funny but my face doesn’t reflect it. Considering how often…

Who is someone that inspires you and why? I’ve been half thinking about this all day, and I don’t really have a satisfactory response. When I was little, I’d be awed by famous types (living, dead, and fictional), but all too often found out that they weren’t quite who I thought they were as I…

Today’s prompt is “what is something you wish you knew how to do.” Where do I begin! Some things are pretty accessible. Like, a few years ago I wanted to try my hand at origami (modular, rather than traditional), and that’s pretty easy to do. You can use notebook paper (if you can cut it…

I’m participating in the bloganuary challenge (though I have missed some days and will surely miss some more), which means I will be responding to prompts throughout the month. Prompt: What was your favorite toy as a child? I had a beloved stuffie that I named P.D. In fact, I still do have P.D., somewhere.…
