I wanted to change my name to Regina and I wanted desperately to own a Hallmark store when I grew up.
Sandwiched between the last two pages was a sheet of wide-ruled paper on which I’d started the same exercise a few years later. I was disappointed to see that I’d stopped after the letter “G.”
I found such joy in the questions, however, that I decided to try it again–17 years later. Now I’m sharing it with you.

I run a darling, friendly, little graphic design studio.
I look on the bright side.
I take photos. Lots of photos.
I wish on stars and on websites.
I built my first web site 7 years ago and got 15 seconds of fame. (It changed my life.)
I launched, then relaunched, an online magazine.
I admitted to several embarrassing crushes.
I consumed more bacon than any human should and lived to tell the tales.
