Welcome to the second Heart of the Hartman's interview! Today we are interviewing Fiona Jane, another good friend of mine. She attends Co-op with me and is the only girl in my class. She writes about her daily life and posts many amazing pictures on her blog, Flourish. All of these photos(except the one of her) are taken by Fiona. Lets learn a little bit about her!

This is Fiona!

When did you start blogging and why?
I started blogging when I was about 10 or 11 years old. My mom had one and so she let me have one attached to hers named Firefly. Then when I was older she let me get my own blog and I re-named it Flourish.

Tell us about some of your interests.
I love photography, writing short stories, playing basketball, shopping (oh I love shopping), and hanging out with my family.

What is one really deep passion you have?
I would really like to open a small photography business at home.

What do you talk about on your blog?
The only things that usually post on my blog are photos or stories. Every once in a while I will post a paper that I've completed for school.

What are 2 of your favorite quotes?
"Tomorrow is a new day, with no mistakes in it" -L.M. Montgomery
"This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there.” -Aslan

Would you rather watch a good movie or read a good book?
That's kind of hard, I really love movies, but if I also love to read a good book. I'm going to have to say I'd rather watch a good movie.

Can you tell me about your ideal reader?
My ideal reader would be a teenage girl, just like me who has a taste for photography, and has a little bit more experience.

Coffee or tea?
Coffee!!!

What do you most like to photograph?
I love to photograph people and food. I don't know why, but I really like to photograph food.

Give us a three sentence introduction to yourself:
I'm a loud, high-spirited girl who loves playing basketball, and putting on a dress every once in a while. I have the most amazing mom and dad, and three wonderful brothers. Most important, I am a proud daughter of Jesus Christ.

What are 5 words that most describe you?
Funny, godly, loud, friendly, photographer

Thank you for answering these questions, Fiona, and I hope everyone else will visit her awesome blog, Flourish. See you next time!
