#WriterWednesday Interview with Jennifer Lieberman

I’d like to welcome the fabulous Jennifer Lieberman back to the blog for #WriterWednesday!

Favorite thing to do when you have free time:

I love doing anything active and outdoors, stand up paddle boarding is on of my fav’s but haven’t had a chance to do it in a while.

The thing you’ll always move to the bottom of your to do list:

I really don’t enjoy posting on social media, I know I have to for work but it’s like pulling teeth for me.


Things you need when you’re in your writing cave:

Coffee, I definitely need coffee…and sunlight, colored pens and a notebook in my writing cave.

Things that distract you from writing:

Darkness, I work best during daylight hours.

Hardest thing about being a writer:


Too many ideas!

Easiest thing about being a writer:

Too many ideas!

Favorite snacks:

I love potato chips, I have no self control if they’re in front of me.

Things that make you want to gag:

Anything from an animal, I’m vegan.

Something you’re really good at:


I’m great at handstands.

Something you’re really bad at:

I’m a terrible singer. I could be a millionaire from people paying me not to sing.

Something you wanted to be when you were a kid:

As a child I wanted to be a gardner of sorts, I wanted to sit on a tractor and mow people’s lawns, it looked fun.

Something you do that you never dreamed you’d do:

I never dreamed I’d be an elementary school teacher, I was the performing arts director teaching 3rd-5th grade for a few years.

Something you wish you could do:

I really do wish I could sing.

Something you wish you’d never learned to do:

I learned to recreate my favorite pasta recipe with vegan ingredients, now I make it way too often and eat way too much of it when I do.

Last best thing you ate:


Last best thing I ate was a vegan kale caesar salad at Crossroads Kitchen in LA

Last thing you regret eating:

I regret a midnight In ‘N Out french fry binge I had a few nights ago in LA.

Favorite places you’ve been:


Favorite places are Australia, Iceland, Israel and Denmark, but I need to travel more to answer this question properly.

Places you never want to go to again:

I never want to go back to my old basement apartment in Queens, NY. It was the worst!

People you’d like to invite to dinner (living):

Elton John is definitely top of my list for dinner guests, Madonna and Baz Luhrmann are also up there, I think that’s enough to fill a few rooms personality wise.


People you’d cancel dinner on:

I’d cancel the ‘cancellers’, I have no interest in woke politics especially where art, comedy and expression are concerned, being provocative and expressing unpopular opinions is kinda our job.

Most daring thing you’ve ever done:


I’ve gone skydiving a few times, that’s the craziest thing I’ve ever done by far.

Something you chickened out from doing:

I really wanted to talk to Jason Bateman at the Cannes Film Festival this year to ask him about a movie he directed a while back called Bad Words, it’s one of my favorite comedies, but I chickened out.

Things you hate about writing: Politics and Horror are not my thing.

Hardest thing about being a writer: The hardest thing about being a writer sometimes ins keeping all with all the ideas.

Things you never want to run out of: I would be so pleased with an unlimited supply of Coconut Water, Family Time, Pomegranates and Lip Gloss.

Things you wish you’d never bought: Purchase regrets are The Facia Blaster, the regret over this purchase overshadows the memory of any other previous regret.

Words that describe you: I’m totally wacky, mildly cooky, sometimes aggressive, always upfront.

Words that describe you, but you wish they didn’t: Responsible, ugh…

Favorite foods: Anything my Tunisian grandmother made was my favourite from couscous, to stews to sweets, I’m also a pastry snob since I grew up in my family bakery.

Things you’d walk a mile for: I’d walk quite far for a really good Vegan cappuccino.

Things that make you want to run screaming from the room: Cats, I’m super allergic to cats.
