thefridayfive questions
1. What is the last book you read and what book(s), if any, are you currently reading?
Recently finished: Threadbare by Monica Ferris, The Perfect Crime edited by Vaseem Khan and The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller.
Currently reading: Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and The Master Key by Masako Togawa
2. How about moving pictures? Are you a fan of any TV show or movie right now?
Not watching anything on TV at the moment, and I don't go to see films. Off to watch a production of Matthew Bourne's The Car Man tonight.
3. What's your favourite genre, and why?
Golden Age crime novels keep me entertained.
4. If we were all evacuating the planet, and you could only bring 3 unique works of entertainment for posterity, which would you pick? Let's just assume that we've coordinated it so there are no repeats.
All of Matthew Bourne's New Adventures productions; all the British Library Crime Classics books; every audiobook narrated by Richard Armitage.
5. Do you make new works as well (fannish or original both count)? Or is that not your skillset/interest?
I write fanfiction and apply for grants for Gloucestershire Bundles, which is definitely creative new work.
