Six random things

25 April 2008 | Writing & Poetry | 2 comments

It seems I’ve been tagged — by David Thor­pe, author of Hybrids.

Appar­ent­ly the rules are:

a. Link to the per­son who tagged you.
b. Post the rules on your blog.
c. Write six ran­dom things about your­self.
d. Tag six ran­dom peo­ple at the end of your post by link­ing to their blogs.
e. Let each per­son know they have been tagged by leav­ing a com­ment at their blog.
f. Let your tag­ger know when your entry is up

So 6 ran­dom things about myself:

1. I love explor­ing cities but some­times I also need the silence of the coun­try­side;
2. the best book I’ve ever read about sci­ence is Pri­mo Lev­i’s The Peri­od­ic Table;
3. I hate cars, or the infer­nal com­bus­tion engine to be pre­cise;
4. I’m cur­rent­ly lis­ten­ing to Sea­sick Steve’s Dog House Music;
5. I’ve just start­ed read­ing Pyn­chon’s The Cry­ing of Lot 49;
6. I love plants and gar­dens, and as I write this I can see the top of the bam­boo I plant­ed last year sway­ing in the breeze.

The six peo­ple I’m tag­ging are:

Steven Hall
Lewis Crofts
Claire Cameron
Angela Mey­er (aka Lit­er­ary­Mind­ed)
Mary McMyne
Vir­ginia Round­ing
