Interview

  • What should others absolutely know about you?
    I am very ticklish; so if you suddenly hear infantile giggling, it is not at your expense - please just get your face out of my armpit!
  • What do you do for fun?
    I am a tremendous nerd, and a geek, and a dork, and also a dweeb, and I am preoccupied with many of the cliched pastimes of that sort of person. I also love to dance (I am told that it is graceful, but inarticulate), and to howl like an animal, and to cuddle just about any person who will suffer themselves to be cuddled, ferociously.
  • What are your greatest personal traits?
    Empathy, artistry, athleticism and sensuality.
  • How often do you travel? Do you prefer to travel or you are more of a homebody?
    I do no mind where I am, as long as there are interesting people. The people of Brisbane have not yet ceased to surprise and astonish me (and I imagine it would be so in any place where my heart was thoroughly committed), so I think I shall remain here for some years yet.
  • What’s your lifestyle? What makes you who you are?
    I eat the same meals almost every day, unless somebody else is feeding me. It drives friends and family up the wall, but I find that it helps simplify a very complicated life.

    Whenever I'm not otherwise occupied, I'm sketching, reading, or doing calisthenics.
  • What would you like your followers to know about you that is unique and even a bit personal?
    I never pee where I aim.

    On overcast days my spirit shrinks to the size of a raisin - I really do think I might be solar powered, like Clark Kent.
  • What do you enjoy most about yourself?
    I can't always predict the next thing that will come out of my mouth. These little linguistic surprises are more useful than not, so it's a habit that I haven't tried to correct, notwithstanding the occasional faux pas.
  • Name 5 things that you can’t live without.
    Stimulating conversation (with spirited, good natured disagreement).

    A sketch pad and pencil, and an intriguing subject.

    Bright hot sunny days.

    Quiet contemplation (and a heavy theme to get me going).

    Wise counsel.
