Interview meme
Questions from yhlee - much as I would like to be a cool person who pays memes forward, the fact that it has taken me three weeks to get around to answering these is a sign that I unfortunately am not reliable enough for that right now.
1. What is your favorite underrated fountain pen?
So my dirty fountain pen secret is that... I have not actually tried all that many pens. I found a few really like and then just went straight to buying way too much ink. I do really like the Moonman/Majohn A1 though, even if it is largely just a VP clone.
2. How did you get into comics?
This one I can blame on Andy and LJRP - she played a number of Western comics characters, and did so compellingly enough to make me want to read their source material. I think Stormwatch was the one I started with, and it spread from there. I had read some stuff before that - Sandman for sure, and maybe Transmetropolitan by that point? But Stormwatch was the start of like, actually buying single issues and keeping up on new releases and stuff.
3. If you could manifest the ereader of your dreams with every feature you wanted (including magical ones), what would it be like? Does it already exist?
Hmmm. I think the big things that aren't quite there yet are:
- a built-in browser with like, reader mode and pagination.
- easy to sync files/articles to (I know Kindle kind of has this, but they've got other drawbacks)
- comfortable to hold for long periods of time - the Kobo Libra 2 is pretty good on this, but I feel like it could be better.
4. What is the naughtiest thing a cat has ever done to you?
Storm, my last cat, loved food, including people food. She was usually not super aggressive about it, but once she jumped up in my lap and took a big bite of the BBQ pork bun I had in my hand and was in the process of moving towards my mouth.
5. What's the most hilarious and/or impressive cosplay or sewing feat you've ever pulled off?
I think the closest to hilarity, in that I was absolutely clowning myself, was knitting the worst sweater. I think at the moment 'most impressive' goes to either finally getting silk painting right, or convincing my embroidery machine to do fake jacquard, both on Shokudaikiri Mitsutada, which I don't have good photos of yet because I have been extremely disorganized this year.

I don't know the character, but honestly I wish I could knit well enough to make that sweater!
