Real Neat Blog Award

This is pretty cool this is the first time that I’ve been nominated for anything as a blogger

I was nominated by the hiddendragonn! Be sure to check their blog out at https://hiddendragonn.wordpress.com/

Thanks so much hiddendragonn!

There are rules for this award, and these are as follows:

– Insert the award logo onto your post (which is the blue image you see above)
– Answer the seven questions they asked you.
– Thank the blogger who nominated you.
– Nominate other bloggers and ask them seven questions and let them know you have nominated them!

Here are my answers to hiddendragonn’s questions:

1.) What is the achievement you are the most proud of?

At this current moment, I would say the thing I am most happy about having done is having finished a manuscript. It took a lot more out of me to create that story than I was expecting, I didn’t know going in that writing a book could be such a grueling endeavor. Reluctant to call it an achievement until it gets published, but that’s the first thing that comes to mind.

2.) What is your biggest regret?

I prefer living without regrets, but if there is one trait within me I regret it’s all moments that I have been indecisive. I hate indecision within myself, and I regret ever having allowed myself to be indecisive in my life.

3.) What do you consider as “sexy”?

I’d say confidence.

4.) What was one of the most awkward moments in your life?

After I had an appendectomy for a ruptured appendix many years ago, I kept looking down at my stitches that were right below my belly button and inside my shorts because they were bothering me as I moved around at a park for a church event. People that didn’t know I had surgery gave me weird glances.

5.) If you could have a superpower what would it be?

Teleportation. I love the idea of never being confined to one area, and just having the freedom and capability to roam wherever I please anywhere on the planet with reckless abandon. It would sure help to cure my growing wanderlust.

6.) Who are your top 5 favorite villains (from movies, literature, history, anything) and of course, why?)

Joffrey: I loved to hate that guy on Game of Thrones. It’s ironic because Jack Gleeson is such a kind person in real life but on the show he’s so despicable. He made Joffrey feel like a true spoiled kid who got too much power without any clear idea of what good to do with it besides do whatever the hell he felt like. So easy to hate.

Joker: A common one (it’s almost cliché to say it) but it’s just the way he doesn’t care about losing anything that makes him so terrifying. Without Heath Ledger’s rendition of the Joker, The Dark Knight would be half the movie it is.

Voldemort: Because he was probably the greatest wizard of all time. Shame he was a complete evil psychopath. I found it interesting how he was always being beaten by his hubris, especially in regards to his dealings with Harry. He made that series. Voldemort was a specter that hovered over the entire wizarding world every book and threatened to shatter everything they valued should he return to power.

White Walkers: Game of Thrones is heavy on my mind, and I really just want to know who the hell these characters are. I think it’s the mix of my speculations as to their true nature and my notions of what they will mean for the show moving forward that makes me place them here. White Walkers could really throw a monkey wrench into things. They probably won’t be pure evil, but for lots of characters they’ll likely be the villains.

Zombies in Walking Dead: I just really think the Walking Dead is a well made show, and it all wouldn’t be possible without those jump-scare-inducing, persistently hungry, mindless zombies

7.) Who is the person you look up to the most?

Though he’d long since passed well before I ever got to breathing, I look up to Mark Twain the most among all authors as an inspiration for my writing


And I nominate JC at https://nimbus432.wordpress.com/ for the award! If you don’t want to that’s cool too just throwing it out there, it’s a tremendous blog!

The 7 questions:

  1. What is the achievement you are the most proud of?
  2. Where do you want to live if you got a chance to move permanently?
  3. What’s your favorite color and why?
  4. Who is your favorite movie villain? (from movies, literature, history, anything) and of course, why?
  5. Who is the person you look up to the most?
  6. What is one of your favorite quotes and why?
  7. If you could have any superpower what would it be?

Hope you guys enjoyed the post! If you didn’t, it’s a free country let me have it!

  3. Congratulations! And those questions got me thinking about what my answers might be, especially the favorite villains one. And for the superpowers question, if the ability to travel back and forth through time is available… then sign me up. 🙂

    • No problem at all, thank you so much for the kind comment! I’m so happy you find my writing entertaining, I’ll do my best to continue to entertain! It’s honestly kind of funny you made a post about spiritual chastening, as I’d been having a day which I’m beginning to interpret as God chastening me in many ways, I won’t bore you with details but I’m just going through a pretty trying day thank you so much once again for the positive comment! 🙂
