The Liebster Award Tag!

So I am freeee of the madness that is the SAT, and now am a slave to the madness that is NaNoWriMo. Wish me luck, I guess.

I realized that I’d been tagged for this like…six months ago by Kenzie, and I wrote out the post, and then I just forgot to do it. Whoops. But I had no blog post written for today (SAT’s fault, not mine for once), and so I guess I’ll just post it right now.

• Acknowledge the blogger who nominated you! (Thank you, Kenzie! You have such an amazing blog.)
• Answer the 11 questions you’ve been asked
• Give 11 random facts about yourself
• Nominate 11 bloggers and notify them that they’ve been nominated (wait what)
• Give your nominees 11 questions to answer! (I’ll try…I’m going to run out of questions, aren’t I?)

What’s your favorite read of 2019?

I forgot all the things I’ve read this year. Have I even read any YA?

Oh wait, there’s Blue Lily, Lily Blue. That was good. But my favorite is probably Scottish Folk Tales, published by Waverly Books? Lately I’ve been getting really boring and have started reading mostly fairy tales and legends rather than YA. But that’s when I bother to read at all. I am SUCH a good book blogger.

But am I even a book blogger? What am I? A writing blogger? A folklore blogger? Is a folklore blogger even a thing? I am suddenly having an existential crisis about this?

Dogs, cats, or birds?

Eh, I like all of them, but especially cats…But I like birds, too. I won’t pick a favorite animal.

If you lived in the world of Harry Potter, what memory would you think of to summon a Patronus charm?

I don’t…I don’t even know. I am failing fighting off the dementor attack, guys.

What would your Patronus be? (it doesn’t have to be whatever you were given by Pottermore!)

Uh…Probably a crow or a raven? They seem really dark and closed-off and mysterious, but really they’re just weirdos. Then again, comparing myself to those genius birds may be flattery. 😉

What’s a book that you believe literally EVERYONE should read?

Uh…

…

So I really liked Chretien De Troyes?

What’s the oddest fear you’ve ever had?

I have too many odd fears to count, really.

Besides writing and reading, what do you like doing in your spare time?

I surf the internet. I do school. I lament my lack of a life.

What’s your favorite color?

I have a lot, but for some reason I think it’s blue at the moment? A bright, sapphire blue. Which I never really saw coming. It was red for the longest time.

What’s your favorite flower? (and do you know the meaning behind it?)

Er. I mean I like roses. They symbolize a lot of things, depending on the color, but the most popular meaning is true love.

I like heather I guess?

I like lotuses.

What is one thing you’ve ALWAYS wanted to do, but haven’t yet done?

FINISH A DANG NOVEL.

Yes, it’s true. I have trouble finishing things. I’ve finished a 112 page story before, but it had no chapters (I was twelve okay) and 112 pages is a little short to be a novel, isn’t it? What would that be, a novella?

Write a haiku about the weirdest memory you’ve ever had! (this isn’t a question. just go with it.)

The alien lights

They are flashing and gleaming

They are all liars

I’m just going to drop that there with no explanation. Oh! Also, I only JUST realized that there were only five syllables in the middle line literally right before I was about to post, and I had to change the poem. Way to go, me, I’m a genius!

I am not going to drop eleven random facts about myself, so uh…I guess I should make some questions here for you guys to answer?

1. What is your favorite Greek tragedy/Ancient literature/really old book? (Okay, fine, any book older than the 19th century.)
2. Who is your fictional role model?
3. What is one story (or multiple stories!) that you want to write but probably never will?
4. Who is your very favorite character you’ve ever written/read (and if you can’t choose that, then who’s the character who’s most like you?)
5. What is one book everyone else loves but you hate?
6. What’s the saddest book/legend/fairy tale/whatever that you’ve ever read?
7. Favorite character from the Arthurian legends, if any? (Yes, I’m talking about this again)(I’m sorry, I’m running out of questions okay)
8. Hogwarts house? (Yes I’m REALLY running out of questions)
9. What are the things you do to procrastinate, besides surfing the internet?
10. What’s your most annoying fear? The one that gets in the way of things the most?
11. What’s the oldest book you’ve ever read?

Oh my gosh you guys I came up with eleven questions I can’t believe this

No way am I coming up with eleven people, though, so I’ll just go with…four. Four sounds good.

I tag:

Weez

Aditi

Merie

Sarah

Now I’ll just forget to notify anybody and then remember a year later and then decide it’s too late. Oh well. (Kidding, I’ll at least try to remember.)

I hope against hope that I had no typos, and thank you for making it to the end of this!
