Lizzie doesn’t have much time for hobbies, being so busy with school and her son. She used to draw and paint, but doesn’t do much of that anymore. She likes to read when she has time, as much poetry as possible (Sylvia Plath, Sharon Olds, Billy Collins, Edward Nobels, and Ryan Vine are among her favorites.) At one time she was quite the Kurt Vonnegut fan, although she hasn’t read him lately. Hemingway is one of her very favorite authors. She has also become quite taken with the Lord of the Rings series in recent years, largely due to the influence of her webpage developer. :P Lizzie used to enjoy running cross-country, but she doesn’t have much time for that anymore either. Sometimes she likes to use her bellydance workout videos for exercise, but she’s kind of a klutz, so hiking is really more her speed.
