Christi Phillips Revealed

Q. What is your motto or maxim? A. It never occurred to me to have one. Q. What 3 personal qualities are most important to you? A. A sense of humor, an open mind, and a strong work ethic--I admire people who try to do their best, no matter what they're doing. Q. What are your most overused words or phrases? A. "Just." It sneaks into the first draft somehow, and I have to strike it out during revisions. It's just meaningless. See? Q. Which living person do you most admire? A. Barack and Michelle Obama. Q. If you could meet any historical character, who would it be and what would you say to him or her? A. I think I'd like to meet Virginia Woolf and Jane Austen. I'd tell them that their work is still loved and revered--more now than it was during their lifetimes, in fact. Perhaps knowing this would make the unhappiness in their lives a little easier to bear.
