No, I refused any food. I was seen as a bit of a weirdo at Scouts and this didn't help, lol. :P<br /><br />Kathy - Thanks! And thanks again for the interview and picking me as a KoMF winner. :)<br /><br />Stephen - No problem. Glad to do a bit to help the cause. :)<br /><br />Alex - Thanks! Just checked and you commented the same thing at the original post. I still think it's the way to go. Forgotten I'd known you so long, too!<br /><br />Martin - I don't know if I really had principles. Just trying to emulate my brother - not sure why as he was hardly cool! I used to get into things obsessively for a short time then go off them. Glad it hasn't happened with writing!<br /><br />J.L. - Howdy to you too. Yes, Stephen's been everywhere! Sorry I've not been over at yours in a while. I'm trying to get into a better routine but a LOT is going on right now (end of school year, events left, right and centre).<br /><br />J.A. - I don't write without a break. In fact, I have a lot of them in the form of little asterisks. So my WIP exists as a collection of scenes rather than chapters. I just find it hard knowing where to draw the "end of chapter" line!<br /><br />Jennifer - Thanks! It didn't make me look cool in terms of fitting in, but it was just before the age when that seemed so important.<br /><br />I totally lapsed after though. I'll eat a Maccy D's any day of the week now, even though I know it's bad!<br /><br />Linda - Thanks for checking out the interview. Ha, I like your suggestion! It never occurred to me. :)<br /><br />fairbetty - You're welcome! I look forward to your post, too. I hope you'll do KoMF again, I enjoyed your story.<br /><br />Tina - No problem. I look forward to it! And good luck finishing BuNo!<br /><br />Ashna - You're welcome! Got a couple of books to finish, then I'll start on Breakthrough.<br /><br />I struggled answering a couple of the categories too, and it was a bit time-consuming too, but still fun! If you know Shahnila's link, it would be great if you could let me know. It's not there when I click on her avatar in the Google Friend Connect.<br /><br />Aldrea - I was a bit "creative" with answering a couple of the questions! (Controversial, moi?! I wouldn't say boo to a goose. Seriously). Anyway, hope you manage and I look forward to reading it.
