Let me know who you are!

"I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your journals, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Some of you I don't know at all because I didn't friend you back (yet?). Perhaps you haven't been around for long, perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you for your interest in my words.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so..."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal and see what gems of knowledge appear."


So, dear f-list - give me some fun random facts about yourselves!

I'll start:  I've known I was going to be a writer since I was twelve years old. That's when I started writing my first novel. It sucked and I only got halfway but it got me hooked. Since then I've finished two novel drafts in English and one in Swedish, plus a number of short stories. Nothing is published yet...

Hmmm, let's see... how about a confession? I think I may have killed a goose a couple of years agaon - horrible I know & hate thinking about it!! It was when I was at university and I rowed for my college. When you row, the oars are very long and you are facing the opposite direction of where you're heading. We were out training early one morning and all of a sudden I felt something hit my oar with a huge thwack. As we kept going (you've got to keep rowing or else you get the oar of the person behind you jabbed in your back) I saw we'd just passed a flock of geese & realised that I must have hit one of them in the head... Oops!

Poor goose... Hm, that reminds me of that scene in About a Boy where Hugh Grant and the annoying little kid accidentally kill a duck with a huge hunk of bread.

I know - I'm a goose murderer... *hangs head in shame*

It was probably an evil megalomaniac goose. You might've saved us all from a world ruled by geese...

... in which we would all be deafened by their constant honking...

Exactly! So you've actually done the world a favour :)
