23 things:
1. Known by the same moniker on deviantArt ( [link] )
2. dabbles in poetry, essays, and fiction
3. currently working on a novel of vast proportions of which I have barely scratched the surface.
4. is addicted to those fill-in-the blank surveys (please see DA site, as I will not be posting any more of this trivialness here, except for this blurb. Most, but not all, of this list is complied from previously posted material.) Someday I want to compile all those questions into one book for my descendants. It's important for them to know what I ate last, my favorite cheese, or what colour Crayon I want to be....
5. My hobbies include entomology, ethology, macrophotography, and journal writing
6. I am ophidophobic.
7. Plans on being published in some fashion for either my writing or my photography in the next year.
8.  Plans on keeping all of my rejection letters to level myself when I become famous ;)
9. My given name means "holy" or "most holy" and is based on the Greek myth of Ariadne and Theseus. Variations of my given name (adding or subtracting several letters), also mean "Silver"  (Welsh) and  "utterly pure," (from a Cretan-Greek form for arihagne).
10. 23 is my lucky number.
11. My informal writing is littered with ellipses and parentheses. I think it's because I think in pauses and have more than one thought going at any given time.
12. I almost always spell the word "the" as "teh" when I type.  My fingers refuse to listen to reason, threats, or teh dictionary.
13. I have kept track of every book I have read since 2002.
14. I cannot read just one book at a time. The magic number is usually 3.
15. I have at least 4-5 blank journals, that I actively write in, going at all times. And at least 4 more that get switched out with my moods. And I am famous for giving journals away as gifts...I wonder if that will be my legacy...a box of mouldy old journals and a coupla CD's of unpublished text....
16. I pride myself on my compulsively saguine useage of obscure vocabulary.
17. I collect weird things that have somehow or another caught my attention: insects, a bird skull, blue Mason jars, wooden boxes, a dehydrated puffer fish, old coins, sea glass, rocks, clinkers (the chunks of melted iron ore that are discarded from factory furnaces), sand from beaches I've never walked on, milk jars, shells, chopsticks, cactus....you name it, I have one or two...or twenty.
18. I would like to teach a creative writing class to adults, but I haven't found a way around either having a teaching degree or a Ph. D to teach college. Maybe when I am a famous author some college will give me a class to torture....and if wishes were horses, we'd all ride....
19. I am married to my grade school crush since Nov. 1, 2002....he's the one I've loved since second grade. He is my rock and my soulmate without a doubt.
20. -I am going to the 6th ring of Dante's Hell when I die {Dante's Inferno Test}  [ [link] ] I do believe the question asking if I believed in God was the clincher. I am agnostic and happy to be a fence sitter until I know one way or the other.
21. If a movie was made about my life, it would be called "I'd Rather be Reading"
22. I probably wouldn't write as much if it wasn't for Dec 7th.  
23. I believe in ghosts.
