The blurb: "How this memetic works is that you leave a comment on this post, and I’ll assign you a letter. Then you write about ten things you love that begin with your assigned letter, and post it at your place. When people comment on your list, you give them a letter, and the chain continues on and on."

I commented on Twisty's post, and she did give me the letter W (and there was I thinking she was going to make it difficult...). So, in no particular order, these are my ten W things:

1. Writing

This used to say 'weekends', but a quick visit to Wixie's blog reminded me of this most important of Ws! I love writing. I love creating stories and characters to inhabit them. From shorts to novels, every project is a joyful new undertaking, even if that joy is sometimes difficult to grasp in the beginning.

2. Whiskey/Whisky

So good, they named it twice. Well, several times, in fact, but here we're only concerned with the above two names. I LOVE whiskey. I have done for many years. It's warm, it's comforting, it's tasty and it gets me a cosy sort of drunk where I still appear to be in full control of my faculties, despite feeling like I'm floating ever so slightly. The perfect end to any night (when your options are as limited as mine).

3. Wee Free Men

Terry Pratchett's introduction to some of the best characters he's created in a long time. Tiffany Aching and The Nac Mac Feegle are up there with any literary character you can name, and with her third sight, mature attitude, over-sized boots, army of little blue critters and stare that can even make Granny Weatherwax have to put some effort into it, Tiffany will make them curl up and cry.

4. Watchmen

Alan Moore's seminal work was not only a masterpiece in comic-book terms, but has been held aloft as one of the greatest works of literature in modern times. A stunning story of loss, betrayal, intrigue and the end of the world, it kicked the super-hero genre in the nuts, beat it over the head with a lead pipe and set its favourite shirts on fire while it lay bleeding. I cannot wait for the 6th of March!

5. Wikipedia

As well as some of the comical entries people have made when abusing its open editing system over the years, as a student, I've also found Wiki to be a handy source of research. Lecturers balk at the idea of us using it, given how inaccurate it can so often be, but it makes for a fantastic short-cut to research if you use it right. I even got a B for arguing such in an assignment last semester.

6. World of Warcraft

I miss it so...

7. With or Without You

8. Withnail & I

A prerequisite of any student’s DVD collection, it is hilarious, endlessly quotable and the perfect Sunday afternoon/hangover movie.

9. Winter

The season of Christmas, New Year, my birthday, hot-chocolate, whisky by a roaring fire, snow and all the joy it comes with.

10. Winstead, Mary Elizabeth

Of Die Hard 4 and Death Proof fame:

Yummy :)
