Favorite bassists :

Favorite books :
The "Outlander" series by Diana Gabaldon, the "Odd Thomas" series by Dean Koontz, "Lamb" by Christopher Moore, "Mistress of the Art of Death" by Ariana Franklin, "Wicked" and "Son of a Witch" by Gregory Maguire, most Stephen King books, "The Vampire Chronicles" by Anne Rice, pretty much anything on Scottish history and ghosts and the paranormal. I also read a lot of writing books.
Favorite tv :
I don't watch much TV. Usually watch The Weather Channel when I'm getting ready for work in the morning, I watch Ghost Hunters religiously, and Starz. I love movies and most of the time when my TV is on, I'm watching movies.
Favorite movies :
The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Dark Knight, Transformers, Titanic, Sense and Sensibility, Blood Diamond, The Departed, Gangs of New York, Eastern Promises, A History of Violence, Just a Little Harmless Sex, Wall-E and anything else Pixar has ever done, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, Batman Begins, P.S. I Love You, Phantom of the Opera, 300, the Tomb Raider movies, and pretty much anything Johnny Depp does.
I love music, and guitar is my favorite instrument. I own 2: a Washburn N2 and a Washburn N4, however I've still not learned to play much. I love the N4 particularly because it's so light and because I can actually manage the fretboard. I'm not a big person and I don't have long, elegant fingers so sometimes I have trouble stretching to reach some of the chords. The thinner neck on the N4 makes it easier for me to reach on those tough chords. It's a wonderful guitar. I do play piano and used to play numerous other instruments, but lack of practice has left me only able to play piano now. I also write, draw, paint and love to take pictures. I'm Scottish by ancestry and love my heritage. I'm also fascinated with ghosts and the paranormal and love Ghost Hunters.
