Alright. It's been a while since I've done this. Ask me anything.

1. Dear Perky Bed-Head...

Where do you find the poetry you post?

[BlueIris]

2. Well, so far it has come from the scores of poetry anthologies, poetry books and personal journals

I have lying around my room at the moment. We'll be doing "Iris's favorite poems" through 2008, methinks.

[DarkTirade]

3. Out of curiosity, where did you get your screenname?

[BlueIris]

4. It's my favorite brand of soap.

Plus, you know, blue=Democrat, Iris=eyes. A little dorky.

5. My dear BlueIris...

What's your goal in life?


:hi:

[BlueIris]

6. To be a famous writer.

7. Why am I still awake at midnight

when I have to work tomorrow? :shrug:

[BlueIris]

10. Did you drink coffee after 7 p.m.? Are you using your bed for things other

than sleeping and sex? Is there an unusual amount of noise in your neighborhood right now (for New York, anyway)?

[ThomCat]

11. It turns out it was the beginning of a migraine headache.

I was getting some of the subtle symtoms first, but it was enough to keep me awake.

It's been one hell of a night.:(

[BlueIris]

18. Oh, hon.

That is terrible. Feel better!

[Generic Brad]

8. What does the "Blue" in "BlueIris" signify?

[BlueIris]

9. See post #4.

[Generic Brad]

29. I can't read!

Or comprehend what I read!

[BlueIris]

12. Kick.

[Fire Walk With Me]

13. What sort of thing do you want to write?

[BlueIris]

14. You make it sound like I've never written or published anything.

[Fire Walk With Me]

15. I only know you as a name on a message board.

You said earlier that you want to be famous through writing. Please let me know what you've done because I didn't know that you -have- written and been published.

I'm just trying to be supportive. :toast:

[BlueIris]

19. I get testy with people who use the term "want to write."

And I hate "writers" who claim they are artists, despite not working to create any art. Blech. Either you are a writer or you aren't. Get to it.

My poetry has appeared in several quarterlies. I'm finishing a novel. And I was kinda being facetious when I said I wanted to be a "famous writer." I would, of course, settle for being a writer who continues to have her work published (ie; read by others).

16. Do you still have me on ignore?

:D

[BlueIris]

17. No, actually.

Removed your screenname months ago.

[I Have A Dream]

21. Shine on ignore.

The world is definitely ending! :scared:

[BlueIris]

25. I had to!!!!

I'm series!!!

But she's off Ignore now, so everyone can relax.

[BlueIris]

20. OMG, someone rec'd this! Hee.

I am a famous thread starter!

[I Have A Dream]

22. Hey, have another one!

:D

[BlueIris]

24. Thanks! This is so cool!

[I Have A Dream]

23. Hey, have another one!

:D

[I Have A Dream]

26. How'd that happen? Darn, I can only recommend once.

I'll have my husband recommend also! :D

[Tikki]

27. Is Axis really as Bold as Love?

Tikki

[BlueIris]

28. Um...no?

[BlueIris]

30. Anyone else?
