Babs has a question for me today that can help explain why I’m answering it so late!

Gosh hmmm what hobbies outside of writing do you like to do?

At risk of sounding like a total nerd, I love to read. It’s why I became a writer to start with. I loved reading so much that I figured writing my own stories was a reasonable leap.

But aside from reading, I spend time with my family. My kids are six and eight and still want to spend time with us. We have pancake and movie night most Fridays. Saturday has become game night. On Sundays, well, we live in Buffalo. It’s football day.

Weekdays, after school, we’re busy with homework and gymnastics and the gym when we get motivated.

In the evenings, hubby and I watch TV. We’re addicted to Lucifer and Supergirl and Scorpion and Pure Genius and This Is Us and Hawaii 5-0 and The Big Bang Theory. I’m also hooked on Arrow and The Flash.

I also love going to see movies and getting together with friends. For drinks or dinner or playdates with the kids. Which really means a reason for the moms to hang out and drink wine while the kids run around like crazy for a while.

Really, I think I’m a pretty boring person, but I guess we all think that about ourselves!

Thanks so much, Babs, for your question! If you have a question, send me an email (mary (at) maryethompson (dot) com) with Q&A in the subject, or post it in the comments below, and I’ll answer your question right here on the blog!
