Mr. Izzard, I am such an unbelievable huge fan and have been for many many years. I find your personal story so inspiring. The political aspirations and the marathons are all things I greatly admire, not to mention your hilarious comedy career, and all the wonderful movies you have been in. I am so delightfully happy that you are kind enough to do this AMA.

My questions:

What was your greatest personal victory of 2014?

Also, and this one is a bit morbid, but, given your level of fame, it is a distinct possibility that a hundred years from now some one will claim that you “haunt” a place. Where would you like to be known to “haunt”?

Oh my gosh!!! You made my week! I actually let out a loud squeal/scream (alarming everyone around me) when I saw you responded. I have NEVER set an alarm for an AMA before yours. You, sir, are AWESOME.

Hey, I love your books and have seen you speak a couple of times. I discovered you through Found and have since shared your project with many friends. My questions: Have you ever seen a secret on paper and realized it was your secret too? How have you evolved during this project? What is the best thing you have eaten while on a Post Secret tour?

I fucking love you! Archer is an amazing show and your character is HILARIOUS! Seriously Pam is such a badass! Really looking forward to your new project!

Two questions: What has been your greatest personal (non-professional) victory so far this year?

AND

A hundred years from now, someone, somewhere, is giving a ghost tour and claiming you "haunt" one of the buildings. Where do you want to be known to "haunt"?

I just started caring for my grandmother. I find it very trying because she is still in early stages, but absolutely refuses to try anything new or leave the house for more than a quick errand or a meal. Also, she argues with me constantly throughout the day about things that she has forgotten (e.g. she lost her drivers license but believes she can still legally drive). She is also extremely negative about everything.

I try to be patient but if there is any advice you can give I would love it. I have no idea how to convince her I'm right about things especially when It is something that can't really be documented. Or how to say things in a way she will remember, or what activities I might be able to get her to go to that would help her functioning.

Also, I am finding it hard not to let her bring me down and make me more irritable and negative with my husband and friends. Any advice there?
