Until then read on…make sure to click on the links to visit Winter52 on Squidoo and beyond. Thanks!
Why do you write on Squidoo?
I love having the freedom to write about whatever inspires me at the moment. I never dreamt that I could come up with SO MANY lens topics. I think that I’m at around 112 (some WIP) but I’m not going to do anymore until those are completed… at least I keep telling myself that.
Your lenses have an undertone of family, humor, and caring…who is it that inspires you to write and be creative?
Writing seems to have been passed down through the generations. My grandfather loved to write poetry and his mother wrote about her life in Ontario in the early 1800s. So, family does seem to inspire me.
How does it feel to be a Shopping Diva for b5media?
My husband would probably say that it is a curse because I now have a reason to shop lol… me, I love it.
You are here on Squidoo, where else can we find you on the Internet?
You can find me all over the place. I have a number of blogs of my own, plus I’m on StumbleUpon (note: I could not find Winter52 on SU), Twitter and b5media. Those are the major ones but I’m sure that I’m forgetting some.
Of the seasons, winter, spring, summer, or fall…what is your favorite and why?
It USED to be summer until this particular one hit. Allergies this summer is kind of ruining it for me. We have had tons of rain and things simply won’t stop growing!
Any finishing thoughts about making Giant Squid, being a lensmaster, blogging, family life, etc?
I’m just having the time of my life and the minute that stops, I will find something else to do lol… Life is just too short not to enjoy ever minute of it. 
I (clouda9) personally like these three lenses:
What a great cast of characters I am amongst for this picking of the Giant Squid! Cannot wait to find my way around to enjoy all the benefits!
I have been working very hard to spiff up all my lenses for the upcoming Giant Squid picks…in true clouda9 fashion I am down to the wire. Yikes!
Here I come!
