So Many Books, So Little Time : awards

My Victory Tour

A big thank you out there to Veturi @ Neither here, nor There, for deeming my blog worthy of nomination, and more so, for keeping the questions as close to blogging as possible.

Here are my answers:

1. Which character from any work of fiction you can identify yourself the most with?

It is funny how I always find myself identifying with different characters of all the books that I read, albeit to varying degrees. If I have to name one, it would be Katniss Everdeen a.k.a. The Girl on Fire from The Hunger games Trilogy, which I read recently

2. What is your most favorite movie and why?

My Favorite movie has to be Silver linings Playbook, because of the aura of optimism that it creates, because the characters are realistic and fallible, and they reaffirm my belief in happy endings.

3. What is your reading frequency?

30 books a year, I guess, I am not used to keeping a count.

4. What is the greatest challenge you face in writing?

Maybe, The constant urge to refer a dictionary!

5. What makes you want to read a book? It’s blurb? Review from a person you like? Cover Page? Author’s previous works?

No wonder, all these components are crucial. A bibliophile such as me chooses just any way.

6. What are your reading patterns?

Repetitive, definitely not chronological.

7. How do you fight blogger’s block?

Seeking inspiration from friends/nature/books. :D

8. Do you think setting yourself a target works in writing?

Never tried !!!!!

9. How important do you think grammar is in writing? Especially in English?

I deem it very important. However, as long as sentences convey meaning, or suggest informal conversation, I don't mind non-adherence to grammar rules. Else, I am a Grammar Nazi!

10. What time of the day is the most conducive for you to write?

I don't have a fixed time as such. It happens when it happens.
