Watch as I talk about my “obsessive collectorism” and my Quixotic quest for the perfect set of coasters.
What an example of something you’re obsessed with collecting? What thing did you pass up the chance to buy that you wish you could go back in time to purchase?

Watch as I answer one of my friend’s recent Facebook Poll queries: “Is pure altruism real? Do people ever do anything out of concern for others that is completely independent of their own self-interest?”
I know my examples of altruism aren’t exactly the work of Mother Theresa, but my point still stands – I think even when we do the best possible thing for someone else we get something for ourselves, even if it’s just a bit of satisfaction.
Do you agree? Can you think of something altruistic that you do totally free of any psychological reward for yourself?

Watch as I answer today’s NaBloPoMo writing prompt: “When you are writing, do you prefer to use a pen or a computer?”
Somehow I don’t forsee these getting any more serious.
What I didn’t say in my moment is that I’ve also always been obsessed with the idea of permanence and archiving everything, so it makes sense that I don’t like to write things in pen – much harder to back up that way!
What about you? Are you a pen and pad devotee, even in our digital age, or would you happily elect to forget the dying artform that is cursive handwriting?

Watch as I answer today’s NaBloPoMo writing prompt: “Can you listen to music and write?”
You’re probably not surprised at my answer, although you are maybe a little terrified of my animal voices. Do you listen to music while you write, or do you find it distracting?

Watch as I answer today’s NaBloPoMo writing prompt: “If you knew that whatever you ate next would be your last meal, what would you want it to be?”
Clearly I have an affinity for fish. What would you want your last meal to be? Is it a specific dish like mine, or a entire genre of cuisine?
