Huckle's Questions

 1. Have you always written for fun?When did you start? I used to write novels in years 10, 11 and 12, but when I got to uni, it all seems to have stopped. I've only started to write again about 2 years ago, and it was like coming home. :-)

2. What vegie grows best in your area? Eggplants are looking very happy right now. And the tomatoes seem to be leading into a prolific and fruitful life. :-)  I don't really know, as this haybale garden everyone helped build is the first time I have had a surviving vegie patch.

3. Describe a pagan ceremony (if you have been to one)? Yep, sure... Um, one of the open ones I went to was very silly and a lot of fun. It was OK to make mistakes and stuff, which was brilliant cos I always do. Men and women lined up in separate queues, and were kissed welcome by the High priestess if they were men, and by the High Priest if they were women, and then we filed around in a spiral until we made a circle. Then the HPS and HP opened the circle and talked for a bit, there were presents for every one, symbolizing stuff, and we raised energy by doing a spiral dance. The HPS and HP closed the circle and gave every one a hand made bikkie to help us all ground again. My memory was pretty sketchy, but it was a lot of fun. It may have happened in different order, but I think it's mostly in the right order.

4. Earth, air, fire, water - which element do you feel most represents you? I am a fire sign, and happen to think that is me all over. I catch fire, get full of enthusiasm and all I do with every spare second is to research/read/think about/talk about something, and I can share that enthusiasm with others, setting them alight too. I love to live passionately, burning with interest in something.

5. I've just given you a return ticket to any destination that you would like to go. Where are you going? God, where do I not want to go? I want to taste the world. I want to go everywhere.

His Grace suggests you spend some time in Saudi Arabia.

Oh noez, I should be scared of you! I'm complete and utter water water water. Emotional, dreamer, introverted and all that jazz. And James is water too (something he uses to explain 40 minute showers!!! Grr)

Pagan ceremonies are very pretty aren't they? Even though I'm not entirely sure what I believe, I think I'm probably closest to pagan than anything else. James was brought up pagan, so we get along well. I've tried to go out with christians while being pagan, and told them that I respected their beliefs, but apparently they didn't feel the same. Tis for the best, James is perfect - even his flaws!

:-)
Paganism is pretty damned awesome all over.

EEK! *hides from the crazy fire people*

And agreed - paganism is very pretty :) There are a few arrogant jerky people out there who call themselves pagan, but judging any belief system/religion by the few rather than the majority is just foolish.
