charles love peter work
I'd love to work with Lena Headey, Alfie Allen, Charles Dance. I'd love to work with Peter Dinklage.
embraced far genre incredibly
The fantasy genre has so far rather embraced me, and I'm incredibly grateful for that.
arrogant complex love seems starts
I love the character of Jaime Lannister. He's just so complex - a character that we love to hate - but it's a lot more complex than hatred. It starts off, and he seems so arrogant and so smug.
dedicated exist medieval seems sort specific time
'Game of Thrones' is a fantasy show not dedicated to any specific time, but it seems to exist in sort of a 1400s medieval fantasy world, and in that setting, I wouldn't have had a six-pack.
treated
My parents treated my height as a wonderful thing to be celebrated, but also normal.
female harold lived married outside prolific relationship sir virginia
Vita Sackville-West is one of my favorite female icons. She was a writer and a prolific gardener, but she also had a relationship with Virginia Woolf, and she was married to Sir Harold Nicolson. She was a woman who lived outside of norms.
nice years feet
I'm certainly really rather tall at 6 foot 3, and I've been this way since I was 14, but for years, women who are even 5 foot 10 have come up to me in the street and said, 'Oh, it's so nice to see a woman who is taller than me. I've always felt like a giant.
gymnastics squad expression
I did rhythmic gymnastics and I absolutely adored it. I was in the squad for Sussex. I wasn't stupendous, but it was something that I was good at and I really loved the combination of discipline and expression. That, to me, was just dreamy.
slash
I think everyone loves a slash of red lipstick.
absolutely love mixing
I absolutely love to relax and have fun. I like socializing; I like chatting. I like dancing, mixing with friends.
femininity women
I don't know, so much of women's femininity is tied up with their hair.
adjust wear
I like to be comfortable. And I don't like to have to worry about having to adjust things if things are too short; I don't want to feel self conscious, so I like to wear things that make me feel empowered.
pseudonym
My pseudonym is 'George R. R. Martin.' That guy's just an actor.
absolutely beyond david exciting fairy fantasy found human liked love tale tim work
I've always liked fairy tale and spectacle. I wouldn't say I was a fantasy fan, but anything beyond reality I've always found exciting - the work of David Lynch, the work of Tim Burton. But for me, I also love those things that are absolutely about human relationships.
