Here I am now, entertain me!

I'm stuck home on a Sunday morning. I'm sick and I'm bored.

Ask me anything.

ETA: As my sick son watches Scooby Doo cartoons in the background -- did you know Shaggy's real first name is "Norville"? Like, I had no idea!

Once upon a time you said there was a good scone recipe somewhere online, for fluffy scones like the ones we had for tea -- do you mind sharing a link for that? :D

[rj_anderson]

Oh yeah!

World's Best Scones

[lydaclunas]

Sweet, all I need are the currants. I predict scones in my future next weekend.

Sorry you're sick. Our church schedule just changed from 9 am to 2 pm and it *feels* like we're home sick. So, some questions for you:

1. What is the most recent book you read that haunted you/stuck with you long after reading?

2. Favorite hymn?

3. What, to you, is the greatest cultural difference between Canadians and Americans?

[rj_anderson]

1. Laurie Halse Anderson's Catalyst. Before that, Carrie Ryan's The Forest of Hands and Teeth (haunting in a different way, though!)

2. "My Song is Love Unknown".

3. American show patriotism by waving the flag. Canadians show their patriotism by eating at Tim Horton's. :)

My favorite hymn, too! Preferred tune?

[rj_anderson]

Calkin.

Where is my mind?

Why are you not in chat?

(hey, it's a question! :D )

[rj_anderson]

Had to make lunch for the fam. Now I am slooooooowly eating a bowl of soup. And then I will lie down.

I was in chat around noon -- maybe see you later?

Get well soon!

How long does it take you between getting an idea for a story and knowing whether or not it's a goer?

[rj_anderson]

With fanfic, it might be as little as a couple of hours; but with anything else, it's often months or years. I find that the best ideas need time to ferment before I'm ready to do anything with them.
