Three Weird Questions
If you could be any superhero/comic book character, whom would you be and why?
Spiderman. I grew up reading every Spiderman comic I could get my hands on.
If you could have chosen the era in which you were born, which would you choose and why?
I would choose the current era. I was pretty happy growing up in the 90’s and early 2000s alongside good music, internet, and Halo 2 & 3.
What book are you currently reading?
Country Music by Charles Wright
What’s the best live entertainment you’ve ever seen?
I’m a sucker for Fantasmic at Disney World. Also, I’m a huge Green Bay Packers fan, and there’s no place quite like Lambeau Field in a January.
I’m currently writing a collection of poems that focuses on and takes place in northern Minnesota and Wisconsin.
