January Meme

[chelseagirl]

OK, so I'm pretty quiet around here, and quite probably even many folks on my f-list don't know me very well. (And many of the folks I originally hung out on LJ and did know IRL with are not active on DW anymore.) So I have no idea if anyone will even ask me a question if I post this, but it looks like fun, and I do enjoy reading everyone's very random answers. So, January meme, ask me anything, I'd love to play!

ETA: Wow, I always felt too shy to do this before -- thank you so much for asking questions! Since most people didn't have specific dates, I've frontloaded so more of them so I'd have one most days over winter break. But I'd be happy to answer more, too.

January 1:
January 2: First concert? (bethynyc)
January 3:Wilkie Collins - can be anything, really. Favourite novel and/or character created by him? Who in all of space and time, living or dead, could be trusted to make a truly interesting adaption of a Collins novel into another medium? (If you already have a favourite tv or movie version, tell me why.) Other Wilkie thoughts are equally welcome. (selenak)

Wilkie Collins - can be anything, really. Favourite novel and/or character created by him? Who in all of space and time, living or dead, could be trusted to make a truly interesting adaption of a Collins novel into another medium? (If you already have a favourite tv or movie version, tell me why.) Other Wilkie thoughts are equally welcome.

Tell me about your icon and where and why you got it! Alice is one of my favourites too.

Which show would Dickens be show-running if he were alive in, say, 2018? (ie, let's not stick the poor bastard with a pandemic).

How do you feel about scary fiction -- not horror or mystery genres across all their wide spectrums, but specifically stories that want to frighten?

[brightknightie]

What is something that you learned by teaching it?

[malinaldarose]

I know you sing. Do you play any instruments? What's your favorite choral piece?

[merisunshine36]

Ooh fun! What is an outfit from before 1950 that you'd love to wear, and why?

[trepkos]

I missed your first post, I guess. What fictional character and/or famous person living or dead, (but not one of these "living in the wilderness" so-called experts) would you take with you if you were to go back-packing around the world?

[chelseagirl]

Oh, I think I did it awkwardly because I've never done one of these before. Cool question!

[jhameia]

Choosing dates at random!

22: What's the most memorable syllabus you've ever seen or put together?
