| What is the main focus of your site? | Reviews of movies and a certain amount of notable TV series. Typically heavy on the UK releases for the TV stuff. I discuss the quality and, often, the business, social, and historical aspects, when appropriate. |
| What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog? | I became the main person everyone went to about what to watch. I created a spoiler-free (except on rare occasion–and always flagged) site for people to find out what I thought of films and TV so they could make up their own minds. It is also just as much for me, so I can remember what I’ve seen and what I thought–at a movie or more a day, it became necessary! |
| Do you prefer an interactive community for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers the students? | Love the idea of interactive, but it can’t take over my life unless it is my paying career |
| How long has this site been active for, and how frequently do you post updates to your site? (Note: sites must be active for at least three months for entry to the LAMB.) | Active over 2 years. Over 800 posts currently. Post almost daily. |
| Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more). | Sliding Doors V for Vendetta The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover |
| Name a movie you hate!! | The FP |
| How did hear about the LAMB? If it was a LAMB, do you recall which one? | Link from Dan the Movie Man |
| Any additional comments, or give yourself an interview question that’s not listed above. (optional) | I was a professional actor for many years (on hiatus) and am a publishing author. These aspects definitely play into my commentary. |
