Getting to know… me!

20 interesting facts you’re just dying to know

WELCOME TO MY FIRST BLOG EVER! Yaaaay!

It seems logical, given that this is my inaugural blog post [insert excited squeal here], and we’ll probably be spending some time together, that I share some info about myself… you know, so you can get to know me a bit better (before all the rambling starts).

So, here goes, 20—hopefully—interesting facts about yours truly.

When I was 10, I wanted to be a coroner (I secretly still do)

I’m an only child

I’m unashamedly obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer

I’ve been to over 1,000 concerts and live shows and I love all types of music; classical, pop, dance, alternative, heavy metal… just no hip hop. It’s not for me

I used to be a goth, and to this day, pretty much only wear black clothes and heavy eyeliner (some habits are just too hard to kick)

My favourite song of all time is Boys of Summer by Don Henley

I’m a mama to two fur babies; black kitties named Craig and Miranda

I’m allergic to pineapple (and caffeine… urgh)

I write paranormal romantic comedies, and I loooooove vampires and werewolves and ghosts and ghouls

My favourite movies include Ghostbusters, An American Werewolf in London, Titanic, Scream and Lake Placid (to name a few)

I’m married to Steven, a wonderful, super-creative, Scottish rock god, and we live in Melbourne, Aus (my favourite city in the world)

Antarctica is on my travel bucket list (despite the fact that I really don’t like traveling all that much #homebody)

I love to paint and draw, and hoard art supplies

I’m addicted to audiobooks and podcasts

My favourite authors include Stephen King, MJ Davidson, Julie Kenner, Graham Masterton, Rose Pressy, Morgana Best, Samantha Towle, Meg Cabot… I could go on and on

I collect white jugs. I have dozens of them

I love the ocean and walking on the beach, but I’m afraid of water, so I NEVER go in

Im a total foodie and lurve Mexican food, seafood, and anything from the donut family (I’m also partial to a bit of Korean BBQ)

I love Bollinger, Guinness… and Diet Coke

I’m a sucker for scented candles and burn them all the time

So, now, why don’t you tell me something interesting about you? Do we have anything in common? Were you a weird kid with strange ambitions? A goth or punk in a former life? Are you a fur mummy or daddy? I’d love to get to know you better, too.
