I asked...

...and Stephanie of Natural/Artificial answered! (My questions are near the bottom, but don't scroll right there--all of the questions and answers make great reading.) Her blog is one of my favorites. Stephanie also has a two book deal with Dutton (Penguin) and is polishing her first novel, Anna and the English French American Boy Masterpiece (LOVE that title) due out in 2011.

One of my questions was, "If you could FedEx yourself anywhere, where would you go?" She said Iceland, and gives many wonderful reasons why, among them being the rerouting of a road out of consideration for the elves. How awesome/funny/intriguing/mysterious is that? A lot, obviously, which is why you want another article (from the Seattle PI) about it. I'm still entertained by it.
