The five things meme

ZOMG! At this rate of postingage I am likely to bring t3h Intertubes crashing down around our ears. It is like I am on fire or something.

Well I was tagged the other day by Anthony for this "Five things you probably don't know about me" meme. Now, I haven't been dead, and I was never a child actor, but I think there are a couple of things that are interesting about me, so here we go:
  1. I won an Origins award. I have an actual certificate and everything: I keep it locked away in a bank vault, because I don't think PaperDirect makes that pattern anymore. Was it really 1992? Holy Christ, I feel old. (Apparently, this is the only time Pulver's won, which is shocking considering his body of work.)
  2. I only have wisdom teeth on the top. Apparently, that happens. (You may draw your own conclusions about the ramifications.) I have had three different dentists tell me I still need to have them out, but every time we get close to doing it, they suddenly find a much more expensive procedure that I need more urgently.
  3. I write sff. That's "science fiction and fantasy." Philistines. I am serious about it, though I don't expect I'll ever make a living at it. (One of the downsides of making a decent living doing what I'm doing. If I were eating Top Ramen every day, you can bet I would write a lot more.) I haven't sold anything yet, but I'm only just getting to the point where I'm producing things I feel are worth trying to sell. Stay tuned . . .
  4. I create card games. I have one called Billionaire that I've been working on for 13 years now. (Yikes, it's 2007. Make that 14.) It's almost done. Really. (I actually stopped putting stuff into it in 2005, and since then have been concentrating on taking stuff out. If you don't get that, hang tight, because I'd like to talk about it more in a future post.)
  5. This space intentionally left blank. (Uh, actually, I can't think of a fifth thing. But I don't want to wait and let this post fester, so I'll use this as a placeholder until something comes to me.)
I don't think I even know five people with blogs who haven't already been tagged. How about etrigan, Stavros, and Rod for starters? Edit: ah, looks like deinonych hasn't been tagged, either.
