An awesome place I've visited:

Kilauea volcano (in Hawaii) via helicopter.

The movie I've watched the most times:

Probably the Last Starfigher, although the Horatio Hornblower miniseries comes a close second. Newer movies...well, I've seen Secretariat a few times now. I love feel good sports movies.

My first concert / My dream concert:

Great Big Sea was my first concert...and my second, and my third. I also like any kind of musical -- not sure they would count as concerts though.

What I would bring to show and tell:

Either my original LOTR double sided theatre movie poster, my signed copy of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (in Japanese), or the antique wooden dragon my parents' got me for Christmas one year..

A story you should remind me to tell you on our first date:

Ask about my rappelling down Toronto City Hall (28 storeys) back in June 2010.

I secretly want to be:

Good question. It changes every day: a superhero, a spy, the captain of a tall ship...fortunately as a writer, I can be anything I want.
