I don't even know if this is a meme

[livejournal.com profile] mimblexwimble asked this, and I thought: hey, cool! So I guess now it's a meme even if it wasn't before.

This is pretty much a fic journal, so I'm guessing y'all know next to squat about me.

So go ahead: ask me anything, anything at all. What do you want to know about me?

I'll answer one question every 500 words I write today, so think of it as helping me to write my BigBang. You're doing me a favour! ;)

Why are you so fascinated with mythology and folklore? Especially the Greek stuff? (Aka, how'd you get into it?)

You so had to know I'd ask that. XD

When I was four years old, my mother's best friend gave me an illustrated book of Greek myths (she's Greek, so it made sense to her as a gift) called "Greek Gods and Heroes."

According to my mother, I then shut myself in my room with said book and spent the next week reading it carefully from cover to cover, learning all about Gaia and the Titans and Hercules and Arachne and Theseus and Ariadne.

I was fascinated. It appealed to my imagination like very little else had until then, and I pestered my parents mercilessly until they got me more books about Greek mythology. Then they branched out and got me *other* mythologies, which I read just as avidly.

So, yeah. It's been my thing for... twenty-seven years now. :)
