December posting meme - Dec. 2 and 3

December 2: @asrabkin asked about my favorite place I have lived, and why

To start with, Not Tennessee
Hmmm but other than that...actually where we are now, probably. Don't get me wrong I have Much Nostalgia for growing up in rural Oregon, being able to see the stars at night and all that, but I like being able to walk places. I like public transit (even if I haven't used it much in the past few years). I like being able to go places without having to plan my entire day around it. And I don't actually like yard work!

December 3: @coffeeontherocks asked what is my least read genre and why?

We're going to pretend like my most read genre isn't currently "fanfiction"

...mystery, I guess? As for why...well actually I like plenty of stories where there's some sort of mystery to be solved so it's not that I object to solving a case as the central plot, I think it's just that plausibly realistic crime...is not something I find interesting (and a Really Cool Detective isn't gonna be enough of a favorite character type to outweigh that). There are probably mysteries I would like a lot but you'd have to sell them to me individually.
