What is the main focus of your site?
The main focus of TCK is just to act as a stage for my cinematic ramblings and reviews. I hope someday to look back on all I wrote as The Culture Kid and relive the memories I'm making today. Deep.
What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog?
My goals are all personal, really. I'm not trying to land a book deal (though that would be cool). One goal is for TCK to fuel my cinematic repertoire and lead me to more movies. I also want to sharpen up my writing with a blog, and get the chance to write about things important to me. I also want others to be able to experience my blog. I have about a dozen blogs I read daily. I want someone to have The Culture Kid in their "daily blogs" 'cause sometimes you just need to read the pointless monologue of a 15 year-old who thought Disturbia was the second best film of 2007.
Do you prefer an interactive 'community' for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers are the students?
I am pretty self-absorbed, so at times, it becomes all about me..preaching. But I love getting comments and being able to know that someone, someone, out there is interested by what I have to say. And I always reply to comments.
How long have you been movie blogging for, and how frequent do you post updates to your site?
I started blogging about film in June 2008. I'll admit my posting frequency can be a tad inconsistent. But I'd like to say that I post once every day or so. I'm trying to discipline myself more and no matter what, post five times a week. My posts tend to be epic and take some time to write.
Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more).
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Fargo.
How did you hear about the LAMB?
I've seen some blogs with a LAMB banner, so I figured I'd dabble in it myself.
Any additional comments, or give yourself an interview question that's not listed above.
None.
