Things You May Not Know About Me

1. I actually don't have a throne still.

I imagine it got lost in the mail but I'mcertain it'll be here soon. When information technology arrives I will, of course, sit comfortably in it and rule the globe with ease. (I also might sit on a cushion considering I'chiliad rather brusque.)

2. I'm incredibly extremely anxiously shy.

I'chiliad not a shy blogger, but in real life? HA. Do not fifty-fifty speak to me because I shall probably run in terror. (Pfft, let'southward forget the "probably". Iwill run.) I don't exercise small talk. I don't do parties. I don't practice crowds. I'thou an extremely anxious person.

3. I fold origami.

I work from domicile! I take an etsy store and a facebook folio! I sometimes viciously cutting up books and turn them into fine art even though, as a bookworm, this feels fundamentally incorrect!

4. My favourite color is orange.

Not prison orange.

5. I don'thate the Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters book-to-moving picture-adaption.

Can we please recall the god of shipping, Hermes? And how heshipped Percabeth? It was hilarious. Also the entire movie was doing it's best to be politically correct.

Percy Jackson: But yous were some weird hybrid, man-goat THNG, woah!
Grover: Yeah. The politically correct term is satyr.

But the kickoff motion picture was purely awful.

half dozen. I have telephonophobia.

Seriously. I practice. Whenever the phone rings I have a small centre attack and take up boxing positions to slay the evil little ringing affair.

7. I have two parents, 4 sisters, 1 blood brother, 2 nephews, ane niece, and 1 canis familiaris.

They're all noisy.

eight. I never call anyone by their proper name.

I don't know why! Buteveryone gets a nickname. Unfortunately, my piddling sister Mime keeps disruptive her nicknames with my puppy's nicknames. If I say, "Hey Brutus!" she says, "Yes?" And then…we'll work on that.

Things I phone call my puppy: cupcake // freak // mutt // raggamuffin // dill // deluded pineapple // donkey // bunyan // sniffy // donald // frank // goober // and many,many more because I rarely use the same proper noun twice. I'm surprised he knows his proper name is Atticus Bean.

Things I call my sister: [see above]

It gets VERY disruptive but I justcan't use people's actual names.

9. I care about weblog stats.

I know bloggers aren'tsupposed to become hung up on web log statistics, just…I quite like checking on mine. I similar piffling numbers that go up. I like comments. I like followers. My weblog is my baby and my creative outlet and the fact that other people evenread it still makes me screech with joy. PURE JOY.

ten. I've written 6 high-fantasy books, 2 apocalyptic, 1 steampunk, 2 paranormal, 2 sci-fi, and two contemporaries.

Paranormal is my favourite.

11. I homeschooled and graduated at 16.

I do everything as fast every bit possible.

12. Idetest chocolate with nuts in information technology.

It'Southward Cheating. Yous go less chocolate. How tin anyone think this is okay??

13. I'grand always thinking 2 million thoughts and am oft accused of being random.

I have alot going on in my brain. Lots of book ideas, lots of weblog ideas, lots of globe domination ideas.

14. I'thou actually rather horrible at reading text books, instructions, recipes, and classics.

Basically anything that's non YA, I struggle to comprehend. Although I'm a lot better with recipes than I used to be. When I make banana breadstuff, information technology actually turns out equally banana staff of life. How cool is that?! (Information technology wasn't similar that in the past.)

15. Ilove to write, but I love it more when I started.

It was easier to write back then when I started. I knew less. I was more free!

16. Every bit a pocket-size humanoid, my pen-proper noun (I thought all authors had them) was Orangish Peel.

I had a serious obsession with Lemony Snicket (to which my parents referred to as Lemon Persnickety, seriously…they never got information technology right). I was honestly going with Orange Skin for a long time in that location.

17. My middle name is Grace.

I'm not svelte but I'chiliad entertaining.

eighteen. I always write about things I dislike.

I don't know why! Information technology'S Foreign OF ME. But every volume I write ordinarily features something that I hate.

Similar:

Meals of peas (I loathe peas)
Parents who work at dentists (my worst nightmare)
Children who like to socialise (what's wrong with them?)
People who detest reading (ugh)
Characters who clothing sparkles/frills/anything and everything I emphatically do not
People who like pond (not me)
The ownership of cats (I hate cats, I'k allergic)

19. The nigh frustrating thing in my existence is my inability to practise art every bit good as I would like.

It painsme hugely. Besides not beingness able to accept perfect photos like I want to. ALSO not being able to describe, write, or do craft to the exact perfection I wish. It frustrates me so much I often quit on things. (Or persevere and grumble, like I do with writing.)

20. I like pie more than than block.

Please DON'T FREAK OUT. But pie is actually very splendid.

21. I very much like to brand people express mirth.

And if I can't succeed with a funny quip or an exceptionally well timed come up back or a hilarious joke, I'll just slap a funny gif on and call myselfwonderful.

And also ambrosial. I am definitely ambrosial.
