13) Describe your weirdest dream involving a writer, book, or literary character.
I dreamt once that I came to be in possession of an evil book that contained all the secrets for destroying the world. It had come into my hands, and I was terrified. Not only because I didn't know what to do with it, but because it was slowly corrupting my mind, kind of like the One Ring! Some people claim that you can't read in your dreams, and sometimes that is true for me, too. But I can vividly remember reading the title of this book. It was called The Best of Fury's Children. If I ever see those words in my waking life, I will probably have a coronary right then and there.
1) What author do you own the most books by?
Stephen King
2) What book do you own the most copies of?
I have five hardcover editions of Alice In Wonderland, all with different covers. Don't ask me why. I don't even know where they came from. They're just... there.
3) Did it bother you that both those questions ended with prepositions?
It didn't until you mentioned it. Now it does.
4) What fictional character are you secretly in love with?
Wellll.. it's not a secret, but I'm totally in love with Edward from the Anita Blake novels. Or, at least I was, until he turned into a pussy. Roland of Gilead will always have a piece of my heart, as well.
5) What book(s) have you read the most times in your life?
The Outsiders.
6) What was your favorite book when you were ten years old?
Um, beats me. Probably The Babysitters Club or the Boxcar Children... I don't think I'd discovered S.E. Hinton yet at 10, but that wasn't far behind.
7) What is the worst book you've read in the past year?
I started reading something called Baal, which was written by my favorite author, but... yeah. I couldn't finish it. I guess we all have our bad days!
8) What is the best book you've read in the past year?
Stephen King's new one, Under The Dome. It wasn't hugely great, but I enjoyed it.
9) If you could force everyone you tagged to read one book, what would it be?
The book I would recommend to absolutely anyone is called A Boy's Life, by Robert R. McCammon
10) Who deserves to win the next Nobel Prize for literature?
Beats me.
11) What book would you most like to see made into a movie?
If it was done well? Make this huge movie series epic out of The Dark Tower series. But it has to be EXACTLY like the books! (Ha.)
12) What book would you least like to see made into a movie?
I really couldn't care less, the greatest books make the most horrible movies.

14) What is the most lowbrow book you've read as an adult?
I try to avoid lowbrow.
15) What is the most difficult book you've ever read?
Romeo and Juliet, which I know is a play, but I read it from my 8th grade English book. Therefore... it is a book!
16) Shakespeare, Milton, or Chaucer?
Milton.
17) Austen or Eliot?
I've never read Austen. So, Eliot, I suppose.
18) What is the biggest or most embarrassing gap in your reading?
I despise Shakespeare. People are aghast when I say that, but I do.
19) What is your favorite novel?
A Boy's Life, Swan Song, or the Dark Tower Series.
20) Play?
Cats? lol, I don't know, I'm not much for plays.
21) Short story?
It's called Pin. OMG, comment me if you want to read it, and I will e-mail it to you! It's... very intense. I love sharing it and getting people's reactions, since it is by my favorite author. :D My BFF actually did it as a monologue for his English class.
22) Work of non-fiction?
I was reading something called Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers, by Mary Roach. That was really interesting.
23) Who is your favorite writer?
Robert McCammon and Stephen King.
24) Most overrated writer(s) alive today?
Definitely the Twilight chick. I watched the movie (it was midnight and there was nothing else on TV), and.. oh. The pain.
25) What is your deserted island book?
Can I have the whole Dark Tower series?

Jericho's autobiography, and The Mists of Avalon.
