What is the main focus of your site?
To offer a different insight into the world of what I term Deadly Movies; being horror, sci-fi, creature features, and monster movies. Deadly Movies concentrates less on news and reviews as, lets face it, the web is full of horror news and reviews. Instead I try to offer something more whimsical, such as 'Do You Remember When Bernie from Weekend at Bernie's Appeared in Friday 13th Part 7?', or 'The Top 5 Deadly Movies Seaside Resort Towns'. I look to really celebrate the oddities and obscurities that make these genres so endearing.
What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog?
I'm trying to expose my writing style to whoever reads it. I would dearly like to write for a living, and I hope what i produce, and the style in which I produce it, is entertaining to the reader. Aside from any aspirational goals I have, I also just enjoy having a place where I can pour my knowledge out.
Do you prefer an interactive community for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers are the students?
My Blog is linked up to my DeadlyMovies twitter page (www.twitter.com/DeadlyMovies) where I like to open up discussions about the posts on the site. I've also, recently, enabled anyone and everyone to post comments to blog posts on the site, this has been particularly rewarding. It's only via interaction that we may judge the success and direction of our work.
How long have you been movie blogging for, and how frequent do you post updates to your site?
I have been movie blogging for 7 months. I aim to post around 4 to 5 times a week, based upon the themes of my regular features.
Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more).
Good god that's hard. Let's go with Halloween (1978), Alien (1979), and Jaws (1975). That sounds so mainstream.
How did you hear about the LAMB?
Via other movie blog sites.
Any additional comments, or give yourself an interview question that's not listed above.
