Hey, I haven't done one of these in a long while. Feel free to ask me questions and I'll try my best to answer before I go see Rush in concert tonight ^_^
My favourite thing about rats... that's tough. I thoroughly enjoy feeding rats cheerios cause it's so cute when they stretch and reach out with their little grabby paws.
Rats are highly intelligent, are on the leading edge of scientific discoveries (SCIENCE!), are cute and adorable and small sized creatures (I'm shorter than most of my friends), and they're great at being evil villains in fantasy stories.
If you were a successful author, but you could be either relevant and well known in your lifetime, but probably not much beyond it (think Dan Brown), or live in relative obscurity to have your works be loved for generations after your death, which would you chose and why?
I think I'd like to be recognized during my lifetime. As selfish as that sounds, it would be nice to know my work is appreciated during my lifetime ;3
