Hey guys, Keza here. I've prepared a little writing/fic-themed questionnaire for everyone to answer! There are a lot of you that I don't know, so here's a good way to start.

---

What should we call you? Keza is fine :)

Give us a fun fact: Ah... I'm left-handed.

Penname (on FFN): Queen Kez the Wicked

Favorite newsie: Historically it's been Pie-eater, but I've also fallen hard for Swifty.

Favorite line in the movie: "We gotta be... am-bastards...!" It still makes me laugh, what can I say.

Favorite (published) author(s): Gabriel Garcìa Màrquez, Douglas Adams, Neil Gaiman, Stephen King, Philip Pullman... Sophocles (I know it sounds pretentious, but I do like the guy)

Favorite (published) book(s): "Memories of My Melancholy Whores," His Dark Materials... "American Gods" ... Oh man, "The Time Traveler's Wife" ... "Spoon River Anthology" ... I think I'll cut myself off early...

Favorite quote: After reading the AV Club's Vonnegut inventory, I gotta go with either "So it goes." or "There's only one rule that I know of, babies - God damn it, you've got to be kind." My favorite quotes are easily influenced and change every week or so.

Favorite (fanfiction) author(s): Misprint, Mondie, Raeghann, Arlene2, Nerikla, studentnumber24601 and a slew of others.

Favorite (fanfiction) story(ies): "Anything But That" by Mondie, "From Dream to Dream" by Raeghann, literally every single thing Arlene2 has written, "Vaudeville" by hilby, "In New York" by Falco Conlon, "It Just Won't Quit" by Misprint, "a Maldiçao de Diabo" by stress... believe me, the list goes on... forEVER.

Favorite genre to read? To write? To read? Almost anything - though I tend to shy away from angst. I do love humor, and my favorite is friendship fics! To write... humor and adventure.

Recommend us one of your stories... (link, if you can!) Ah... I guess "Keeping it Safe," if only 'cause it's completed (and half as long as "Epic" is right now). http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1619729/1/ ...be forewarned, it is dark and somewhat melodramatic. Oh, and I wrote it 3 or 4 years ago. Yikes.

Fanfic pet peeve: Writing in an awful New York accent.

RP? Occasionally on message boards, but that's it.

Are you excited about NewsieChallenge? SO excited!

Any other comments: Not really! I'm looking forward to meeting everyone.

Okay, that's it for now. :) The first "official" challenge will come on Friday; in the meantime, continue to spread the word about the group!

With love,
