Sarah Beth Durst Revealed
Q. What is your motto or maxim?
A. Be prepared. Be happy. Watch out for skunks.
Q. Who is your favorite fictional hero?
A. It's a toss-up between Alanna from the Tortall books by Tamora Pierce and Harimad-sol from The Blue Sword by Robin McKinley. Both are girls with swords who save the day.
Q. What 3 personal qualities are most important to you?
A. I judge people primarily on whether or not they say hello to me, so I'd have to say niceness. Also sense of humor (because how can you face life without that?). And third... Really, so long as someone is kind and willing to smile, I can overlook pretty much anything else.
Q. What are your most overused words or phrases?
A. I say, "I love you, " to my family a thousand times a day, but I don't think it's possible to overuse those words (at least not if you mean them).
Q. What is your favorite occupation, when you’re not writing?
A. Reading. Eating chocolate. Reading while eating chocolate.
