I've actually relistened to the podcast (but still managed to miss stuff) and another question was "What did you really enjoy doing as a child?"

I have to say that I was a voracious storyteller as a child. But somehow I've become more and more verbally limited with time. I feel that in part it has to do with insecurity and depression... You could say "NaNoWriMo" is a perfect way to deal with it, but I frankly still feel too dependent on others' opinions right now... For some reason I've remembered that about 10 years ago I said that I would write only for myself. I gave up quickly on this resolution, by sharing what I had written with another person, and then changing my philosophy to writing for others... But I think that resolution was right. Except I didn't know how to follow it properly.
