These questions come from my pal Groovy Old Lady's blog. She's not that old but she is pretty groovy.
1. What do you think are three top qualities to look for in a politician?
Honesty, integrity and selflessness.
2. Which do you read more of, fiction or non-fiction? And please give us one awesome book recommendation while you're here...
Fiction by far. I just started The Lacuna and I think it will join my list of fantastic books. I also recently loved Wally Lamb's I Know This Much is True. And I really like both of Sarah Lotz's detective books- Exhibit A and Tooth and Nailed. She's a South African writer but I think she's just about to break-out so you guys out there should watch for her.
Okay I also have a bit of trouble counting.
3. What is your go-to outfit for dressy occasions? Describe it for us!
Sorry, I try my best to avoid dressy occasions. If forced it will be my black "swingy" skirt and my purple shirt, which is a little bit low-cut (cause if you have 'em you should flaunt 'em).
4. What song(s) do you want sung at your funeral? Why?
I'm not planning to die, when it happens I'll be completely taken by surprise.
5. What is your favorite way to unwind?
Reading and swimming and walks in the bush.
6. Do you think you could live contentedly in a 2 room home (plus a bathroom, of course)? Why or why not?
Yes, have done it before actually in one-room and loved it.
7. What is your all-time favorite breakfast? (Come on now, make us drool!)
Pancakes with real maple syrup and real butter with nice juicy pork sausages.
8. And lastly, are you gonna join me in participating in NaNoWriMo this November? (I hope so!)
No, but I could since I am writing a novella right now that I am attempting to finish in 15 days. So far it is going better than expected.

So, is the novella done yet? And how can you decide beforehand that it IS a novella. My stories just take off and go willy nilly down the pages. They don't stop until they're good and ready to!
The novella is almost done, at least the rough draft. I have come to the end but need a few more words. I suspect 1-2 days work.
In this case I'm writing for a specific market so I must keep the story within novella parametres. I do that by having a fairly exstensive plot plan before I start writing.
