 ==============

1) Favorite color: Purple! ...don't judge me. I'm a child of the 80s. It's not my fault.

editorial sidebar: This is not something to be ashamed of. I too favor purple, though as a Sith I lean more to red...

2) Food: Chai. Specifically, chai from a local sandwich/sugarbliss shop. No other chai can compare! Well, many other chais cannot compare. Especially Starbuck's anemic excuse for chai. Still, even pathetic chai is better than no chai.

3) Hi, I'm Beth, and I'm an alt-aholic; I have more MMORPG characters than I can even hope to play. (C'mon, Blizzard, give me more character slots...)

4) Cats. Four of them. They are obligatory, right?

5) I have written and edited tabletop RPG game books.

6) I have the housecleaning instincts of a hermit crab.

7) My kid has hermit crabs. I know what I'm talking about here.

8) I have NO IDEA how I got nominated! (But I'm very excited about it!)

9) I abuse semi-colons; it's because I love them too much.

10) When writing, I often have to do a search on ""that"" during the edit phase(s), to eliminate the spurious ones. I'm getting better at noticing them earlier and backspacing, but "that" is still a word that I like too much."
