In honor of "See and Be Scene" Month, we tracked down ALT.com member and prolific blogger Violently, author of the blog "Preludes and Nocturnes." This girl is dangerously sexy, and her words cut like a knife. She was gracious enough to answer a few questions for us:


Please describe yourself in just three (fun) words.

Curious, Kooky and Omnivorous.


If you had to choose a role for a night, would you choose "seeing" or "being seen"? Why?

Definitely seeing. I love people-watching and take great voyeuristic pleasure in observing people doing, well... just about most things.


Your posts regularly get 1000-2000 views each -- you're one of the "most seen" bloggers on ALT! How do you deal with the attention?

I think the great thing about a blog is having plausible deniability. As for the attention I can simply say it isn't me and I had nothing to do with it -- a legion of trained chickens held me ransom and took over my computer.


How personal do you get in your blog? Are there things you won't discuss?

It's back to that plausible deniability thing. I get about as personal as I care to get. Anything that's too personal is even too personal to talk about, let alone write and publish; so of course there will be things I won't discuss.


Has blogging led you to interact differently with other members than just having a profile did?

Yes, I think its fair to say that it has. It's more information about a person, relevant or irrelevant. There is that feeling of being privy to the dynamic thoughts of a person through their blogs; their problem solving, melodramas (if they log them), etc., all serve to give a fuller picture of the person behind the nick...

Or it could just as well be that they too were captured by dastardly chickens.

What is your favorite ALT.com blog to read (besides your own)?

Tough question.

I try not to have favorites - I like them all :)

Currently though, I quite like [blog Keres]' blog, probably because its just so different from my own.

Any final wisdom, thoughts, or advice?

My advice would be not to listen to my advice.
