. Did your parents read to you as a child?
yes,even before I could talk they read to me
What books do you remember best?
The Little Golden Books(esp the one about Dinosaurs), Dr Seuss, Little House series,Disney books
2. For each level of schooling you've been through, what book you were assigned made the biggest impression on you? What book you read on your own?
I could read above my grade level,which caused some friction when teachers tried to hold me back.
a - Grade school-Little House series,for my 5th grade history class.
middle school-I dont remember having to read books for anything,I picked my own. "Roots" in 7th grade and 'The American Girls Collection' in 8th grade
b - High school- We had to read the Scarlet Letter which bored me to death:P I chose to read books like Jurrasic Park,the Shannara Series by Terry Brooks and historical fiction by Anne Rinnaldi
c - College-so far not too many recquired reading besides textbooks but I have chosen to read on my own: books by Anne Rinnaldi and Babara Hambly,Alex Hailey,Terry Brooks.
3. If you've finished school, what books have you read since graduating that have made the biggest impression on you? Not done with school yet:P
4. Do you pay attention to who writes the TV shows and movies that you watch? If so, who are your favorites? Nope,except that Micheal Crichton works on ER and I use to read his books in highschool
5. If you write fiction yourself, whose work influences your own style? I do write fanfic but it's so here and there I dont really count anyone else as much of an influence.
