    Default Hobbies?

    Does anyone have any hobbies other than reading? Share them here.

    Some hobbies I participate in are drawing, painting, and art stuff in general. I like listening to music, riding my bike around, and exploring the neighborhood with my friends, too. Cleaning is fun, too (yes, I like cleaning, and, no, I won't come to your house and do it for you. Sorry.)
    Modification: Ooooh! Ooh! I have more hobbies, too. I also write a lot, and (my favorite) I collect Boyd's bears. The bears are so cool. I totally forgot about those! Oh, I just remembered another one! I also collect books signed by the authors. So far I have like 6 of them. Four are signed by Michael Buckley. Two are signed by Charles Santore (he's a very amazing artist, and I admire him greatly), and two more are signed by Suzzane Collins ( yes THE Suzzane Collins), and one is signed by Lois Lowry. Oh, I have more than I thought. Yep, so those are my hobbies.

    I quilt and sew a little when time allows. I enjoy writing letters and keeping a journal. I collect books, dust, and fountain pens. I also work too much, so the hobbies suffer sometimes.

    I spin wool, knit, weave, make baskets, make soap, grow my veggies and do canning.

    You'd get along with my mom. She makes jelly, applesauce, and cans and freezes it.

    Other than writing and researching for writing, I like to treasure hunt.

    I am a serious organic gardener but plan to turn it into a business by raising heirloom seeds (and possibly selling produce).

    I also play guitar and write songs (former musician).

    I like to swim.

    other than that, all my interests revolve around the cottage industry of ebook production...

    I sometimes make computer animations when I have a good idea for one. I also enjoy designing maps for Half-Life2, though most of them aren't actually playable because I'm really just trying to design weird buildings or build accurate reproductions of real ones. I'm a lifelong computer nerd.

    I like to sew and make quilts by machine. I haven't had much time to make any quilts though since I published. It seems there's lots more work after the books are out than before.

    I write (books and journal-writing), paint fantasy paintings, play the violin (badly), sing, and sew.
