5, 6 (if this doesn't in some way involve books, I have you wrongly pegged), 12 and 22 (for the "These Questions Are Actually Good" post)
goddesscru I apologize it took me some time to answer this but I wanted to wait until I had some time in front of my computer as opposed to answering on my phone.
5. Weird things I do when I’m alone: Talk to myself, put on a specific hoodie and plot out novel chapters. I have a fairly long wall in my office that I stick 3x5 cards to as I plan. It’s really strange but I walk along and tell myself the story as I go to be sure it makes sense.
6. How I’d spend ten thousand bucks: I’d go on a writing retreat to either a tropical locale or Ireland. Whatever I had left would be put to use revamping the book storage in my office & I’m sure purchasing a few new titles to add to the “to read” shelf.
12. Something I’m currently worrying about: writing my comments about the seniors on my team. Parents are super judgmental and will surely find fault in whatever I say. UGH
22. 5 things I want to change: I can only pick 5?!? OK, here are 5 in no order and maybe not even my “Top 5″. 1. Disparities in compensation among races and genders, 2. the cost of earning college and advanced degrees and the relatively low proportional increase in compensation based on holding an advanced degree, 3. the low proportion of women in science and engineering, 4. the practice of defensive medicine which is a direct result of our litigious society, & 5. the high cost of healthcare, particularly how it corresponds with relatively low reimbursements to front-line clinicians & the continuously increasing expectations placed upon nurses while decreasing benefits.
Thanks for the thought-provoking questions!!! They were fun!!!
Oh my goodness, to think I asked these an eternity ago, lol. Thank you for such thoughtful responses. They’re all so pleasant.
