emchy1) How did you and your sexy beast fall in love?
we met when we were working at different film festivals housed in the same building. i was the admin asst for the lgbt film fest, and she a fest assistant for the latino film fest. she came down to our office and needed to request a film for their screenings. i was immediately smitten. she claims i acted very cranky, but yet she still was intrigued. we flirted at our various jobs, went for coffee together etc. and then i invited her to be my date for opening night of the lgbt festival. she had a film screening in it that year and it was a very heady and exciting first date. there were bumpy times, as i was married and in an open relationship and that wasn't a situation she was interested in, though she was interested in me. she was too classy to give me an ultimatum, so i gave one to myself. give the first honest love i had felt in a long time a real shot, or continue to be married and drunk most of the time and very very messily depressed? i chose the riskier and really only option. to get divorced, move out of my home, get a studio and give what felt like real magic a shot. it worked. :)
2) What has been your proudest moment as an artist?
when i was invited into my current writing group.
3) Why do you write?
same as why i breathe. i can't live without it. for many years i didn't share my writing with anyone. it wasn't intended to see the light of day and yet words still had to be written. it's the way i see things. walking down the street is words falling into poems in my head. it's too much to keep in and still function.
4) If you could only have one outfit in the world, what would it be?
black commie tank top, old comfy beat up jeans, combat boots and a cowboy hat.
5) What has been your biggest lesson as a human thus far in life?
people see you how you tell them to see you. it's all about how you present yourself - good or bad, it's a personal choice to tell the world who you are with every action of every day.
Your turn: leave a comment if you would like me to interview you. Post the answers in your own journal, with a comment similar to this one at the end.
ETA: my brain is now full, and i must think of questions for you all. they will come to you soon....
