Write like no one is reading...

On Monday, I participated in a 5-Question interview via Being A Wordsmith.

I think there's no easier/honest way to write than to answer a few questions.

Towards the middle of the week blogger friend Kristi Campbell shared an article on Google titled, "A whisper of advice to an exhausted blogger, uninspired writer" and of course I clicked right over.

The blogger's advice?

Play.

That’s all.

Forget about niching, target audience, stats.

Play. ~ Jane of Nothing By The Book

To play and don't worry about an audience or stats was something I needed to hear.

If I can just get on a roll again and write like no one is reading.

So I solicited the help of Siri and said, "Look for Sunday memes." I scrolled through some pretty good ones, but I didn't feel like making a commitment to any of them.

Then I stumbled across a page that had 400 blank questions and said, "I'll take it!"

I decided that I would pick 10 random questions. I have no idea if they are cheesy or inappropriate, but I figured after I wrote up what I was going to do, then I was already invested in doing it.

I'm playing.

Here we go...

I solicited the help of Siri again and asked 10 times, "Pick a number between 1 and 400."

I'll be answering the questions in the order given.

10 Random Questions answered like no one is reading

#250 - Are you quiet?

I am very quiet. I observe. Most times it's very awkward that I don't have anything to add to the conversation. I had a boss once, who would embarrass me at the end of client meetings saying, "Kenya had entirely too much to say." See awkward.

#17 - What is your nationality?

I am a Black American. I never got into saying the African part - not that there's anything wrong with that.

#385 - Coke or Pepsi?

I've been off caffeine for a month now. Woo hoo! But before that, regular Pepsi or Diet Coke. I don't like caffeine-free of either, they taste like something is missing.

#41 - About past relationships - who were those serious ones?

See, this is why I had Siri pick the numbers because I would have skipped this one. Without naming names, I have wasted my life on... Ok SKIP.

#18 - Hair color?

It's dark brown. I have no color in it right now. Any highlights are from the sun.

#176 - Do you believe in Voo-doo dolls?

#126 - Does anyone understand you?

My mom does, perfectly.

#200 - Have you ever killed someone?

If looks could kill.

#74 - Favorite smiley:

#60 - Favorite sweets:

It's easier for me to say that I don't like black licorice.

Um - so who read this? Leave a comment or a simple like will do.

Here's the thing... I'll get around to that writing like no one's reading thing.

I couldn't get deep with this fake meme.
