Smith Q&A
Place: I live in my parents’ camper.
Why a pseudonym? Once I found out what that meant, I was amazed!
Why would you write for a webzine for no remuneration? My cousin told me I could.
Most influential reads as a youngster? Most all of the Star Wars adaptations. The Guinness Book of World Records, Vols. IV, V and VI.
Most influential reads as an adolescent? Mostly I played Zelda.
Most influential reads in recent years? Ender's Game. I turned in my 7th Grade book report late.
What was the most rewarding thing you’ve ever done? I went on a diet of powerbars and yoghurt and lost 20 lbs. to weigh one pound less than Nathan Strong.
What are your personal interests (besides writing)? When there are ants in my camper, I take liquid soap and make tiny soap rings around those ants. They always crawl into the soap! Always! Also, I make lists.

6. The real passion of the Christ. Jesus turned out to be the Son of God!

(tied with)
4. Chocolate peanut butter shakes. Try them as a malted!
3. The Great Wall of China. You can see it from space!
2. Europe. It’s like stepping back in time. So much culture!

Honorable mention: Oxygen. Really good films and not just for women!
Other honorable mention: Sex. I’ve done it! But it’s not on my list because of God and the Bible.
Have you ever felt your butt grow? Yes.
