Everything you've always wanted to know about Jill, but were afraid to ask.
Ask now.
A Pre-emptive F.A.Q.
Will Jill answer all questions?
She will definitely try. But Jill makes no promises in writing.
Will Jill answer all questions fully and honestly?
Hell no! Are you delusional? She may answer some or all questions fully and/or honestly, but she may also opt for creativity, absurdity, evasiveness, various other abstract nouns, or any combination thereof.
And what, praytell, would that depend on?
Variables include but are not limited to (in no particular order): Jill's mood, the time of day, the level of intimacy of the question, the charm with which the question is asked (or lack thereof), the direction of the wind, the temperature of the ocean, the amount of verbs in Jill's magnetic poetry collection, the amount of ice cream you offer to buy for her.
Wherefore this day?
Because Jill is exhausted, running on caffeine, and in a silly enough mood to think this is a good idea. Also, she is trying to catch up on a few things and to get a few other projects off the ground, and cannot decide what to write about. Rather than focus on one particular mood and actually write and revise a post, she is excited to let The Fabulous Cyberians query her brain.
When and where will the questions be answered?
Likely soon after they are asked; possibly a bit later; quite possibly in a future post. Could be in the comments; perhaps amended to this post; alternatively, in a future post. Also not ruling out within an alternate reality which consists of a "World Without Xavier" in which Jean Grey gets with Wolverine instead of that damn boy scout.
So, unless The Fabulous Cyberians have any questions about the process and/or nature of the questioning... let he who has not sinned cast the first stone.
Whoops. That was Catholic school talking. What Jill meant to type was "let the inquisition begin."
P.S. If you're feelin' toey rather than inquisitive, and you missed yesterday's post, Jill invites you to skip the interview and read hot fudge ain't got nothin' on you instead. Jill's not one for self-back-patting, but she must admit she's rather fond of this one. And she's also very proud of a certain someone, who wrote this deliciously feisty thing.

Because I am playing catch-up reading on your blog, should I safely assume "hot fudge ain't got nothin' on you" is either going to cheer me up immensely or turn me on much like your famous phrase "Kisses Like Whip Cream & Fucks Like Hot Fudge"? If you answered yes to either or both parts of my question, then I have no further questions to ask of you. Instead I am wasting time commenting and I need to get to the "dirty post"! :)

Hmmm, so I can ask but I won't necessarily get an answer and I do get an answer, it may not be honest. Interesting.
Here's one: From the posts I have read from you, it seems evident that you were raised Catholic. However, I believe I have seen you define yourself in some of the posts as a recovering Catholic, or something along those lines.
My question is in multiple parts - 1) If you were brought up religious, do you feel that this upbringing has affected your work in any way, and if so, how? 2) If you did end up leaving your rleigion, what inspired you to do so? 3) Do you believe that it is hard to be devout and extremely artistic and open, explain?
I could have asked other things, but as the answers might not behonest anyway, I thought these would produce more interesting answers, if you decide to answer them at all.
Hope you feel more rested, Jill.

Jill, how soon upon meeting a strange man do you confess your undying lust for him? Same question, but substitute "deepest, darkest secrets" for "undying lust for him".
What's the craziest place you've ever gotten your freak on and why?
Why do you write? More specifically, why do you write what you write instead of something else?
Shave, wax, or both? How, where and why?
What does paradise look like to you?
(How's that for a start? I'd have done more and sooner, but, well, I've been rather, um, "busy" myself until the wee hours of the morning.)

1. If you could have one "super power" what would it be and why.
2. If you were stranded on a deserted island with minimal supplies and absolutely NO possibility of rescue, in the theme of Gilligan's island, which 6 other castaways would you choose. Remember, you will be there for the rest of your lives.
3. If you could go back to any point in your life and start over, knowing and remembering what you know now, when would you return to and why.
4. What is the consesus of all the Jill's on the perfect "date" and/or guy.
5. In one sentence, how do you want to be remembered after you croak. (not to be morbid or anything)

Let me just say that you all are fantastic. I have enough inspiration and focus here to write for at least two weeks! But you can still keep the questions coming. Maybe April will be "Reader Question Month" at JillWrites.
I'm going to get to all of these questions. A few quick comments:
CB: My pleasure.
Faltenin: Oh, fun! Looks like another fantasy post will be coming up soon.
Grunt: Oh, fun! Looks like another drunken nonsense post will be coming up soon.
CB: Oooohhhh funnnnnnn! More male body parts. Purrr.
-J: Very thought-provoking questions. I will indeed answer them honestly. The Catholic culture has been a huge influence on my psyche and my writing.
Geek: An interesting variety you have here. I don't know if I shall be divulging the craziest place I've done that, but perhaps a post about... hmmmm... There are some interesting possibilities there.
Shave. I've never been waxed. That just sounds waaaaaaay too painful. As for the rest, I am eager to get to them.
Lil Bitty: Girl, question #2 could get me into deep you-know-what. (Check your diaper.) Nonetheless, I'm going to give all of these a try.
M.A.: As of right now, emailing you is moving from the Master To Do list to the Daily To Do list for today.

Scott, I'm very flattered that you think these inquiries fall under the heading of "Everything you always wanted to know about JILL but were afraid to ask". So the answers are: "Yes, if you define God as the miracle of the existence of the universe"; and "it depends on if you are using 'like' in a literal way to refer to a feeling of an entity capapble of feelings, in which case, Jill would have to say the miracle of the universe does not have such capacity; or if you are using 'like' in a more metaphorical way, to gauge the degree of your own good fortune as a result of the miracle of the existence of the universe in comparison to the phenomenon of being literally liked by an entity capable of liking, which as we've already established, the miracle of the existence of the universe is not cabable of doing, in which case Jill would say that as of this point in time, it would certainly seem, judging from your birth, continued existence, talents, family, and friends, that God does in fact like you, though with a wider perspective upon your entire existence, it may unfortunately come to be determined that God does not like you." Jill, however, likes you very much.
Kat: I don't know. How do you feel about my response to Scott?

Okay. Thanks.
Here's a more Jill-Centric question: Do you (Jill) think it is possible to be too contemplative, too thoughtful? If so, do you ever feel that you are too contemplative, too thoughtful? Do you ever think your life would be better if you were stupid? Or, do you think that quality of life increases as one becomes more informed about the world in general and about one's self specifically? Are you in a place of trying to think more? Think less? Live more? Get out more? Accomplish more in your work? Accomplish more in your personal life and minimize work? 'Sup?
Also: What is your favorite shade of blue?
Also: I like you too.
Also: Hello, Jill.

From the ridiculous...:
-- Who would win a slap-fight between Paris Hilton and Mischa Barton?
-- How would Cindy Brady say "thong?"
-- Ginger or Mary Ann?
-- If I use Irish Spring in the shower, will certain parts of my anatomy shrink?
...to the sublime...
-- Where is your dream vacation?
-- Describe your favorite memory you haven't had yet. Not just a piece of fiction (though your fiction is marvelous!), but something you want to have happen to you that hasn't yet.
-- If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would it be? Why?
... to the downright toey:
-- So... Ginger or Mary Ann? ;-)
-- What is your favorite male body part?
-- What is your favorite thing a man can do to you?
-- Will you answer other questions privately? (grin)

You're welcome, Scott. Glad I could clear things up for you. I am going to get to the rest of your questions in a future post. 'Sup wich u?
Trueborn, your answers are posted. Hope you like.
CC: I've addressed your toey ones. I fully plan to get to the sublime ones. As for the ridiculous ones:
1. I'd be cheering for Mischa, and would jump in to assist her if necessary. Therefore, she would win.
2. Now you're making me want to watch The Brady Bunch for several hours so I can really get her lisp accurately.
3. I'm not much for the virgin/whore dichotomy. Put them together and you have a real woman.
4. I don't know if anything would shrink, but you'd sure smell good.

Intriguing inquiry, Peefers. I answer the comments because I have something to say to everyone! Right now, it doesn't take much more time to read, think, and writer, than it does to just read and think. If ever I have such a volume that I can't reasonably do that, I will cross that bridge etc. All I've ever wanted to be was a writer, and I am happy to engage with my readers.
