What is the main focus of your site?
This is a highly personal response to various aspects of film. It’s a sort of diary that details a life long passion for film.

What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog?
I came to blogging as an incentive to keep me writing. I felt like I was logging behind in my creative output, and decided to start writing about movies. My personal goal: to continue writing about something I love in my own fashion. Professionally: It would be great if it led to a career in professional criticism. (I’m not holding my breath).

Do you prefer an interactive community for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers the students?
I love interaction of all kinds. Active discussions are great. My comments section is always open. And I don’t claim to be any kind of expert.

How long have you been movie blogging for, and how frequent do you post updates to your site?
I started the site in May of 2010. I do my best to post once or twice weekly.

Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more).
Carnival of Souls, Taxi Driver, Chilly Scenes of Winter

How did you hear about the LAMB?
Other movie blogs. Specifically Assorted Loaf.

Any additional comments, or give yourself an interview question that’s not listed above.
Why do you love watching movies?
For the same reason that other people drink and go to church. It’s emotional solace.
