Before we get to the giveaway, I want you to get to know Jessica a little better, so I asked some questions!
How did you first get started watching Doctor Who?
Honestly, I don’t even remember! I think there was a marathon on BBC about a year or two ago. It began with Christopher Eccleston as the 9th Doctor and I became instantly hooked!
What is the thing you love most about Doctor Who?
I really admire a show that can have such an ongoing legacy and huge fanbase. It’s always exciting to keep up with the new companions and Doctor regenerations. It’s wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey...FUN!
Which is your favorite doctor and why?
Each Doctor has been appealing to me in their own way, but the 10th Doctor (David Tennant) is probably my favorite. He’s quirky, funny, gets down to business and I had all the feels during his good-bye with Rose.
Which is your favorite companion and why?
Rose Tyler. She was the companion that started it all for me! I also really enjoyed watched Amy and Rory and seeing how their story tied in with the Doctor and River Song.
Besides Doctor Who, what other things do you geek out for?
I am a HUGE fan of The Hunger Games series and I’m beginning to get into the Divergent series as well. I’m also a total geek for Harry Potter.
How did you first conceptualize your shop, A Little Loka?
I was looking for new artwork to display in our house. I love inspirational quotes so I created a simple art print using a Princess Diana quote. From there, I created some custom art prints for friends and decided to open a shop. I expanded on my handmade items and now sell art prints, jewelry, candles and other home decor.
What is one of your favorite items you create?
I love working with geode stones and agate slices. My geode rings have been popular sellers. They’re always fun to create since each stone is so unique and pretty!
What's one piece of advice you'd give a new blogger?
Don’t compare yourself to other bloggers and don’t beat yourself up if your numbers aren’t too impressive. Also, if you’re going to blog for profit, be prepared to work! And most of all, remember why you began blogging in the first place and why you wanted to share your words with the world. Keep true to your voice and enjoy the friendships you’ll make through your blog!

ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome giveaway and such a cool chick! I definitely have to check out her shop!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Doctor is my first Doctor: Eleven. I just have a soft spot for Matt Smith. Plus I loved Amy and Rory so much.
My favorite doctor is definitely the 10th. Because David Tennant. :) I don't know if all couples have this, but Hubs and I have a list of celebrities that we would have sex with and our partner can't get mad. David Tennant is at the top for me. I'd totally cheat on my husband for a night with him. He's just so yummy!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite companion.... BAD WOLF! Rose is definitely my favorite, but I sure did love Donna too. Probably because her sense of humor is a lot like mine. I could see getting into the same kind of trouble with the Doctor just like she did.
Thank you for the giveaway chance! My favorite Doctor is my first Doctor - Eleven (although I luv Ten as well!). My favorite companion is Amy/Rory. I still can't even think about Angels Take Manhattan without sobbing like someone in my family died.
ReplyDeleteFavourite Doctors: Tom Baker and Peter Capaldi. Favourite companions : Sarah Jane and Martha :)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the advice not to compare yourself to other bloggers!!
ReplyDeleteThe 9th Doctor and Rose :)
ReplyDelete10 will alqays be my doctor... He was who started it for me. But honestly every doctor becomes my doctor... They all represent some necessary growth in his character and each time I couldn't imagine being more in Love with the next doctor and then boom. I find I've fallen. Even #12...
ReplyDeleteMatt Smith is my favorite Doctor but Rose is my favorite companion! I love Amy, too. Ok I switch my answer to Amy, shes my favorite.
ReplyDeleteOMG DOCTOR WHO STUFF. I MUST HAVE IT. :D
ReplyDeleteEleven / Matt Smith is my favorite and technically first Doctor. I had a friend who tried to get me into Doctor Who for years without success. I stumbled on a clip of Eleven & Amy in the TARDIS... the one where she is teasing him about all of the girls he's had as companions and how pretty and young they all were - how he's just a bloke. When he referred to himself as a "Space Gandalf" I basically lost myself in a fit of laughter. I loved him. He was charming, witty, strangely cute and he became My Doctor.
Fun Fact: My blog Kimi Who was originally started with the intention of being a blog about Doctor Who. ;) But I soon realized that as much as I love that mad man and his blue box, I love lots and lots of other things too and couldn't seem to focus on one thing. So Kimi Who became less about The Doctor, and more of a question. So it still works both ways. :D
Ten is my favorite Doctor, but I like watching all of them. I think my favorite companion is Rose....mostly because of her and Ten. Their goodbye scene is heart wrenching.
ReplyDeleteI have only been watching for about a year. Before that, I made fun of my husband for liking this strange show so much. Then I sat down with him and watched an episode. Now I look forward to it more than he does!
Rose and Ten are my favorite <3 I'm not over it, to be honest.
ReplyDeleteTen & Eleven for doctors and for companions i love Donna & Amy!
ReplyDeleteOoh dont make me choose! I love the tenth and Donna, but also the 11th and Amy. I am not a Martha fan at all
ReplyDelete10 is my Doctor, too. But honestly, Twelve (the new one) is a close second. I used to be all about Rose BUT now that I'm re-watching Doctor Who, she annoys the hell out of me. Rory is my fav, and always will be. <3
ReplyDelete(I'd say River but she's nobody's companion)
I am SO with you. Ten forever. And Rory forever. I still have only seen ONE episode with twelve, what is wrong with me?
ReplyDeleteGreat choices! Most people don't like Martha. She's not my favorite, but I don't necessarily dislike her. lol
ReplyDeleteThose are great ones! Amy & Rory forever. <3
ReplyDeleteTen is the bestest!
ReplyDeleteRight? So much fun! Yeah I think it might be difficult to write about just Doctor Who and keep it going for very long.
ReplyDeleteI Love Ten! It's such a great show!
ReplyDeleteMatt Smith is great. I love Amy too!
ReplyDeleteMe too. Ten all the way. I do love them all.
ReplyDeleteAh they were a great match weren't they?
ReplyDeleteSo true!
ReplyDeleteI really need to go back and watch the older ones! I saw two of them at SLC comicon and they were great!
ReplyDeleteAmy Rory. Tear. I get what you mean!
ReplyDeleteRight? You can say "Because David Tennant" and just end it there. It's so true. Delicious!
ReplyDeleteRose as Bad Wolf was amazing int he 50th Anniversary episode!
Jessica is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteOh yes! I'm going to tweet that out, and add it to the post! Sorry love!
ReplyDeleteIt's like you've had finals, and work, and house hunting or something. :P
ReplyDeleteBut for serious, check out 12. The writing is so excellent, and even Souffle Girl is good.
Ten is my favorite doctor and rose my favorite companion.
ReplyDeleteMatt Smith and Ten are my favourite :) Thanks for the chance.
