The Surprisingly Sane @krazydiamond
krazydiamond, a Wattpad favorite and recent Watty 2015 winner, but you knew that already. Here's a bit of the krazydiamond you might not know. The one who can imitate male singers and defend Harry Potter, while also admitting he was a bit of a wanker in books 5 and 6. Hey, that's a fair admission, folks.
1.Flash everyone. Let them peek into your life a bit.
I recently left two jobs to take up the home front while I write. I have two boys who like to test the limits of gravity. I have a fat cat named Grendel who weighs twenty pounds but can still chase a red dot halfway up the wall. I have a blue car which matches my hair and I have an addiction to peach rings.
2. What's your favorite genre to read? To write?
My favorite genres to read are Young Adult and Romance, which is completely at odds with what I write being Science Fiction/ Fantasy/ Horror.
3. What do you consider to be your best accomplishment? What is your biggest failure?
Best accomplishment, finishing my first novel over the summer of freshman year of college. Biggest failure, not finishing grad school.
4. On a scale of 1 to 10, how intolerable do you find baby pictures on Facebook?
As a mother and culprit I round out at a solid 7.
5. Where would you go in a time machine?
Back to the future. I want flying cars dammit.
(psst, the Terrafugia is in development!)
6. Best comment from a reader. Worst?
Best comment "I would read a grocery list written by you"
Worst "What kind of swear word is asshat? The person who came up with this idiocy would be an asshat."
7. What secret talents do you have?
I have uncanny recall for names and faces, a knack that has served me well in customer service. I also have a very low singing voice and can imitate several male singers.
8. Azzy of Marrow Charm is spunky, tough, and resourceful. Which of your characters, if any, are based off of you?
I think the character who possesses the most bits of my personality is Fred from Zombies vs Aliens.
9. What Wattpad book is your current favorite?
I plead the fifth. Have you seen my reading lists? I bounce all over the place. It's like my library at home. I read six books at a time.
10. Which one of your writing endeavors frustrated you the most?
There is a piece I am currently working on that features an autistic character. I learn more and more about the subject everyday and it is a character I want to present as natural as I can. Which means endless revision and tweaking.
11. So...Zombies vs. Aliens. Which Alien movie is your favorite? What about fav zombie flick?
Alien movie: It's a three way tie for three very different reasons. Aliens, because its fracking awesome, The Thing because the whole movie is one long mindf*ck with gruesome special effects, and The Faculty because it speaks to my b horror loving heart. Zombie movie is even harder to pin down but despite the wide range I have seen, I have to give props to Shaun of the Dead because it really brought humor and horror together for me and I definitely count it as an inspiration source.
12. Do you (or do you not) agree that Harry Potter was a huge asshole and probably the least exciting character in the entire series? Like, he spent seven years terrorizing his friends with his own problems, ya know? They had their own shit going on and here comes Harry Fucking Potter just fucking shit up left and right? They had lives, too. They all had lives, Harry. IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT YOU.
See, what makes Harry an interesting character, he really is just an average bloke thrust into this life or death prophecy. His best quality is the people he surrounds himself with, who bring out the best in him. I would not call him a huge asshole. Bit of an angst ridden wanker in book 5 and 6 but puberty is the shits.
Question 12 may seem odd, but it was a test, and she passed with flying su-SPEC-t coloring.
And doesn't everyone want flying cars? While reading this, there's no doubt you're nodding along and saying, hell yeah I want a flying car! Well, krazydiamond just said it first :D
