~11 QUESTIONS FROM JOYCE THAT I NEED TO ANSWER~  
  1. What is your favourite book and why? My favourite book is Harry Potter by J.K Rowling because that is the first book I read and it got me into the world of books
  2. What is your favourite drink? My favourite drink is Vanilla Coke but most of the time I just drink water
  3. What is your favourite quote of all time? My favourite quote is from The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins:  “We fight, we dare, we end our hunger for justice.” 
  4. Do you have any weird skills? The weirdest thing I can do, (I wouldn't really call it a skill), is that I can make unusual noises
  5. Who is your favourite Disney character and why? My favourite Disney character is Lilo and Stitch because it was funny and unique. It was also the first TV show I watched (so I was told).
  6. Do you love anime and which one is your favourite? I absolutely love anime! My favourite is Avatar the Last Airbender and the sequel: Avatar the Legend of Korra
  7. If you could travel anywhere, where would you go? I would love to travel all around the world but the first place I would go to is Italy because I have heard lots of great things
  8. Would you ever go to comic con? If yes, what would you dress up as? I don't exactly know what a comic con is, but I am assuming it is a place where you dress up as characters from comic books... I wouldn't go because I am not as interested in comics as I am in normal novels
  9. Do you like the show "Dog the Bounty Hunter"? I have never heard of it but if it is a fantasy film then I guarantee you that I will like it.
  10. Three things you cannot live without? Technology, books and family

  3. Congratulations on getting your very first blog award!! :) And FYI, I cannot STAND soda. Considering your favorite drink is Vanilla Coke, I just wanted to get that out there. Let the "WHAT THE HECK? WHO DOESN'T LIKE SODA" commence. Anyway, best of luck to your book, and hopefully it can get published soon! :) My favorite author is Julie Kagawa, because she got me into reading and blogging, so I guess we're alike—kind of—on that front. :)
