THE RETURN OF A DOZEN QUESTIONS

Earlier this year, I ran a series of questionnaires with creative people from Northern Ireland. I am so grateful to each and every one that took part. The motive? To attract visitors to my blog, to provide links to anything participants want to promote and to enjoy the answers to the 12 questions.

I am developing the next list of invitees and hope to share their comments on here in due course.

For the time being, I am sticking with my interest in Northern Ireland connections.

In the meantime, here's the premise and a list of the kindly souls who took part in the last series.

(Search the blog for individual answers).

If anyone would like to take part, please copy/paste the questions, add your answers and any promotional links and send to @joecushnan@aol.com And thank you one and all.






A DOZEN QUESTIONS
(NO.21)

The Pivot Questionnaire comprises 10 questions. I have seen it used on the television show Inside The Actor's Studio, presented by James Lipton. Apparently Proust was the original inspiration. The modern questions originated on a French TV show called Bouillon de Culture, hosted by Bernard Pivot. I have expanded the questions to 12.
  
(For the time being, this idea is restricted to Northern Ireland's creative artists in any field, literature, music, broadcasting, etc. If you are one and are interested in taking part as well as promoting your work, please get in touch via joecushnan@aol.com)

The 12 questions:


1. What is your favourite word?

2. What is your least favourite word?

3. What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally? 

4. What turns you off?

5. What is your favourite song?

6. What is your favourite film? 


7. What is your favourite curse word?

8. What sound or noise do you love?

9. What sound or noise do you hate? 

10. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? 

11. What profession would you not like to do?

12. If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
