About Me
-
Describe Yourself:Good sense of humor, good listener, love good conversation, good friends. I am confident and have respect for myself and others. I'm an optimist with my feet firmly planted in reality. I am a very loyal person and detest fickle, pessimists, and petty. I am an observer and see the nuances--they intrigued me. I like peace not particularly fond of discord. I'm by no means a pushover. I can and do stand up for myself but realize that not every battle is life and death, so I pick my battles and win the war, lol!
I have a 15 year old son, who is my greatest blessing in life. He is creative, funny, smart, opinionated (haven't a clue where he got that), and convinced that he knows everything (THAT comes with his age bracket, which I hope he outgrows fast so he gets to see his 18th birthday, lol!).
I work full time presently and am the Marketing Director of our firm. I also do some marketing for a few small publishing companies. -
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:Friends, Critiquing on my writing
Interests
-
Favorite Music, Artists, Genres:I am eclectic in music. Much of it depends on my mood at the time. I listen to pop top ten-hey, I have a 13 year old, lol! But I like everything from Linkin Park and Blue October to Pavarotti-he has a gorgeous voice. I love instrumental, especially new age. My sis and I take in a good symphony periodically and absolutely adore Spanish guitar--I play a bit too--would love to play like Ottmar Liebert. The man is phenomenal.
-
Favorite Books, Writers, Genres:Gone with the Wind, The White Dragon-the whole series actually (McCaffery) Trust Me-Krentz, The Godfather, Rosehaven-Coulter, The Guardian and The Gift-Garwood., Christine Feehan, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Norah Roberts, Christina Dodd, Jayne Ann Krentz, (actually I will buy the book on their names alone) Toni Blake, Robert Ludlum, Dean Koontz, and Susan Wiggs. Catherine Coulter and Julie Garwood's historicals, some of their current stuff. Love Anne McCaffery, Andre Norton, Robert Heinlein, Dean Foster , Some of Ken Follet and Tom Clancy-depends on the story line.
-
Favorite Movies, Actors, Genres:Under the Tuscan Sun, The Lake House, Jackie Chan Movies, Lord of the Rings, Pearl Harbor, Gladiator, Always, Above the Law, Monster in Law, Fifty First Dates and actually like most of Drew Barrymores movies. Love Peter Sellers Pink Panther. Princess Bride is an all time favorite. Enjoyed the Potter Movies and Pirates of the Carribean.

Jerry Kays, Jan 10, 2011, 12:28AM ESTHi Sia, thanks for the ping-note ... appreciated and I agree with you ... though admittedly I am one who sometimes give back similar to what I receive ... but I usually try to keep it milder to start. :-) -
Jeanne Amequohi, Feb 13, 2010, 5:30PM ESTHi Pia;
I see that we have some of the same interests and I thought I would ask you if you want to be friends. I'm also a writer. I no longer have horses, but I miss them like crazy. I used to show Arabians and Saddlebreds. -

Ishbel R., Jul 13, 2009, 3:37AM EDTI played the pipes when I was a girl. My family are also involved in pipe bands both in Scotland and in Australia.
Genealogy is also an interest of mine - I've managed to get my family tree back to the 1500s - but can't get any further.
