Ask me a question (or questions) about the characters I write. Or even about the universes. Or whatever.
The question(s) can be silly, serious, sexy, meta (five stories that I haven't told for a particular fandom), or whatever else strikes your fancy. Harry Potter, the Mummy, Riptide (ee! please!). You can ask about Miami Vice, Starsky & Hutch, Knight Rider. I haven't written for them, but I think I might be able to be entertaining in those fandoms. lol.

Date: 2010-02-28 01:54 am (UTC)3) What's your favorite dessert?
Oh, chocolate cake, definitely! Ala mode, with vanilla ice cream.
Before I could ask the next question, Dr. Bozinsky pursed his lips and raised his eyes to the ceiling. The rest of us looked up, too, until we realized that he was reconsidering his answer.
Cheesecake is good, too. Especially if it has that strawberry glaze drizzled over the top. Or lemon meringue pie. Fresh fruit is so good, too, at least when it's in season. That's one of the wonderful things about living here in California, don't you think? The real beauty of this state is how the environment is so conducive to the propagation of so many varieties of fruits and vegetables.
He nodded to himself, and before he could list any other favorite desserts -- reporter's integrity be damned, he was making me hungry -- I moved on to question number four.
4) How often do you think about the magician?
Oh. Martin Stonewall, you mean? Yes. Often. Quite often.
Dr. Bozinsky answered so quietly, while looking down at the floor, that I had to lean forward to hear him, but then I had to sit back fast when his friends glared at me. They spoke quietly to him, but I heard Mr. Ryder insist that yes, Martin is still alive, that there's no such thing as ghosts. He kept that up until Mr. Allen shushed him. When I told them that I only had one more question, they all looked relieved.
5) What is the average airspeed velocity for a coconut-laden sparrow?
Mr. Allen and Mr. Ryder looked confused, but Dr. Bozinsky smiled at me and stood up.
That's an excellent question, but actually Nick is our aviation expert, and I believe in giving credit where credit is due, so I'm going to ask him to answer that question for me. Guys, I need to go out and run some errands -- and maybe I'll stop off at Blockbuster and rent a tape for us to watch tonight over dinner.
When Dr. Bozinsky shook my hand, he whispered that he likes Monty Python movies, too, before he disembarked from the Riptide. That's how he got a head start when Mr. Allen suddenly remembered where he has heard question number five before. The two of them chased after him, leaving me behind. See the attached pages for the damages done to one pair of pantyhose, a new pair of cream colored pumps and my new pink business suit and matching briefcase when the group of apparent gun smugglers burst onto the boat, taking me hostage for five hours until Dr. Bozinsky, his partners, and one Lieutenant Ted Quinlan of the KHPD could rescue me.
Memo to the senior editor: Next time you want an interview with Murray Bozinsky, would you please make sure the computers and electronics page has a reporter available first? This was the third beauty and gossip reporter to quit this year.
Sincerely, Wanda Wise.
