Er...neither do I! I don't regularly read your LJ, so this will be quite a stretch. I'll try.

01. Reply and I will write something about you.

A fabulous reviewer, who really sees into the piece she's reviewing, and really catches onto a lot of little things that some people miss.

02. I will then tell what song/movie remind me of you.

Hmm..."The Truman Show" Intelligent, really gets it.

04. I will try to use a word or phrase that best describes you.

Smart, musical, thoughtful.

05. I'll tell you the most memorable interchange I've had with you.

Oh, just about any of your reviews, though there is one in particular that I *squeed* over...Severus knew his given role and cannot imagine any other life. He even thinks 'I have no purpose' rather than 'Triumph! I am free!'. Being a martyr for the cause also allows him to assuage his guilt while retaining his anger at those for whom he is 'forced' to sacrifice himself. Aside from that, I don't think he could have lived with himself if Sarah had died trying to save him. Not only did he expend a lot of time and energy fixing her up but he thinks of his life as relatively worthless.

After I read that I thought, wow. She really, really gets it.

06. I will tell you what animal you remind me of.

A wolf. Smart, yet loyal, cunning, persevering.

07. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.

I've always wondered at your infinite patience with me...you always review, tirelessly, and you always put so much into each review. I always eagerly await your reviews!

I've always wondered at your infinite patience with me..

It probably is related to the fact that I'm a bookish uber-nerd whose childhood dream was to be a book editor. I tell myself that reading and reviewing good fanfic will help me in my writing- but too often I use it as an excuse not to write.

Thanks for the thoughts.

You wanted to be a book editor? How utterly fascinating! Are you still desiring that occupation?

[cantatrix05.livejournal.com]

Oh no and it's not something I ever really pursued. I'm actually half book nerd and half science nerd. The science half won out- I'm a physician. My RL friends would be horrified (I think) if they knew about my 'literary Sue' self. Part of me still believes that reading for a living would be a wonderful way to go but the fic I am currently beta-reading (rewriting) is enough to scare me back to reality.

Editing is definitely a tough occupation!

Fascinating that you had a choice between such a "right-brained" pursuit and a "left-brained" pursuit.

[cantatrix05.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm, never thought of it that way- just saw big stacks of books in both directions. But you're right.

I gave up medicine several years ago in order to home educate my children- a much more right-brained activity than I had anticipated. Maybe with all the extra 'right-sided' exercise, I'll be ready for that editor career when they're done school!
