Inspiring Blogger Award

I've been nominated by the lovely A.F.E Smith http://www.afesmith.com/blog, author of the upcoming Darkhaven (July 2015) for an Inspiring Blogger Award. I have to list seven things about myself and attempt not to sound boring. So, here goes:

1) I'm fascinated by rabbit mythology. I collect spooky rabbit stuff. Don't know where it came from. (The White Rabbit in Alice's Wonderland?) The idea of the Easter Bunny freaks me out and don't even get me started on Donnie Darko.
2) I'm bad with technology. Bad. I'm paleo tech. I commune with the gremlins in my computer to pacify them.
3) I have commitment issues...which is probably why I have bits of everything on several social media sites.
4) I once saw a ghost. I was ten, with my friends, and it was dusk. We looked up and witnessed a black figure like a nun gliding past an abandoned school on the corner. I'll gladly not relive that experience. Although in England...well, we'll save that for another time.
5) I've never read the Harry Potter books. I want to. I'm embarrassed that I haven't, and often pretend that I have.
6) My mom is from Liverpool, England and my aunt once dated Ringo Star when he wasn't Ringo Star.
7) I didn't learn to drive until I was thirty.
