Bonus:
Who is your hero? Probably Sylvia Plath, and my derby wife/best friend Bobbie Soxxx
If you could be any character from literature or film, who would you be? Who I’d want to be and who I’d end up as are very very different. I’m probably, if not most than, a lot like Briony Tallis. However, I would love to be someone like Moira McTaggert. Sure-footed, confident, smart and able to use it.
If you could have one super power, what would it be? Manifest things that I imagine into reality
If you could have three wishes, what would they be? 1) A nice, public use stadium with derby-ready floor, 2) A nice apartment somewhere by the river but without the noise or parking issues of the bars or flooding!, 3) A job that I love.
If you could visit any country, where would you go? Either Canada or Australia.
