Sasha answers lots of tweets, so I decided she deserved her own Q&A page. :)
I don't post every tweet. Thank you's, hi's and such are not posted. I try and archive only actual questions and her stand alone tweets. I also try not to keep repeating the same questions. Questions that are constantly asked are added to the FAQ's on the right side of this page.
Twitter is public so unless a profile is private I put the names up in order to give credit to the person asking the question. :)

Non-Twitter users: RT means Re-Tweeted, what follows RT is the original tweet Sasha is answering.
I don't have a set way of posting these, it all depends how Sasha answers. If she simply @ThePerson and doesn't RT then I put the question first. If she RT's I post as-is.

It's been a year since I started the Q & A with Sasha Alexander archive. I wanted to thank everyone who follows it. Your comments and feedback are always a welcome sight. Thank you.
I would also like to thank Sasha for being so generous with her time. What little free time she has Sasha always manages to find time to answer her fans questions. I hope she knows how much it is appreciated.
Here's to another year! Or two, or three... :)

10:02pm - 10:29pm
Just had a lovely interview with @SashaAlexander1 who spoke of boob grabs, fantasy kiss sequences & being a "lesbian at heart." #gayzzoli
@dorothysnarker great talking to you today! Ha! :)
Go pick up an issue of June 2012's Redbook magazine when it hits the newsstands...My daughter Lucia got to interview me for an article. Check it out!
Are you the oldest child or the youngest? Do you have a strong sense of responsibility?
@MyMillertime I'm the only...yes.
Have you seen all the new promos for S3?
@Jazz2k a few of them yes, it's looking good!
how come we haven't seen new dance videos from u & Angie this season?
@captk1r we were just talking about that the other day... maybe one day soon. We've been so busy!
How often do you do ADR work?
@Sashanista generally some for each episode, but not always.
Anything u want to say about #RizzoliandIsles #S3 so far?
@Twangel_Sydney It's awesome!
is ADR difficult? Like trying to get the right emotion across when ur not actually "in-scene"?
@supercalifraj4 sometimes, but usually it is okay because you get to rematch it as you do it so it helps.
On this promo at 6 sec, can we know who’s the man Maura says « wouah » ?
@audrey10011980 Now that would spoil all the fun if I answered that!
Have you read any of the R&I novels?
@MelanieRickert Yes, almost all of them.
Just a quicky, are you in Mission Impossible 3?
@MeganMcgee_ Yes, I was.
What episode from #RandI are you shooting now please ?
@audrey10011980 Ep 6.
do you actually drive a Prius or is that just for Maura?
@JadoreSashaAl1 maura.
Do you think you could live tweet with us again? :D
@Sashanista it's a possibility.
What about the fact that millions of people know about ur life?know everything,or almost,about u&ur family.What do u think?
@PhoneutriaFera I am a pretty private person so that part can be hard.
do you still get nervous when you do interviews or are you used to them now?
@rushj44 depends on the interview.
does Edoardo ever read lines with you to help you prepare for a scene?
@MollyVegas sometimes yes, mostly @nickiraegeous though.
The dresses you are wearing as Dr.Isles, which all look classy btw, are they from various designers or from a specific one?
@DDforyou various designers.
Why the purple gloves in R&I?
@Sashanista they come in all colors, and I guess they though Maura would like them.
5/7/12
A little behind the scenes tidbit that you guys never get to see... Recording ADR between shooting scenes!
5/3/12
9:45am - 10:46am
Thanks to everyone for you kind words about the pics from the @ScoopNYC event last night, had a blast!
B Day Is coming soon! We need too know which charity Is near and dear to you ;)
@Said_Sasha I will be tweeting this information soon!
Do you ever have a tendency to over pack when you go away on a trip?
@JenniferMarsh_1 Yes!
Are there any aspects of Maura's personality that you find yourself relating to when reading scripts and acting?
@MelanieRickert Of course! I think there are small pieces of my actual personality in every character that I play.
Advice time. The subject: crying on command. The expert: you. How do you make it happen? Do you have a method?
@rudy0924 Yes, I have a method that I was taught and I try to put myself in that place of the character.
Will we see Bass in #RizzoliandIsles Season 3?
@reenaCK I hope so!
4/30/12
11:47pm - 12:33am [responded to approx 70 tweet]
Goodnight all, great chatting with you! Early call time for me at #rizzoliandisles tomorrow!
How do you spend your free time apart from reading our tweets & replying??
@KateYu1 what free time? I have two kids!
will you be doing more R&I BTS videos like you did last year?
@imayfan some yes
How does it feel when tweets are flooding in??
@KateYu1 a little overwhelming...
you know if Maura will meet a new member family or something? Maura has a sis in the books right?
@ChezzaGuerreiro you'll have to watch and see... Maybe, maybe not.
Did you learn Italian and Serbian while growing up or later?
@MyMillertime I speak Serbian with my mom and my family so since I was little.
what is one thing u love most about Maura Isles?
@Sandy_CH her fashion and quirkiness!
do u prefer bein a dark brunette of Kate or your blondey gold of Maura?
@gabiabi84 Maura, it's also much closer to my natural color.
What do you want for your birthday?
@Sashanista don't buy me anything, if you feel the need to do something, I will have an opportunity soon for you to donate to a great cause.
will we get to see some more of those pics from the photo shoot you had not so long ago?
@MollyVegas probably soon yes!
do you ever get grossed out filming autopsy scenes?
@MollyVegas sometimes but not often.
My sister said I need to try new beers..any suggestions?
@RizzlesCalzona I don't drink a lot of beer, sorry.
Would. You watch "Dance Mom's". Its reality, but its a competition show also!
@DameDiva no, I don't really watch reality tv.

@TrekOnLTS still finishing the first one but @nickiraegeous is on to that one.
How many episodes of season 3 have you filmed so far?

@JadoreSashaAl1 not very well lately, no time.
"No weekend plans Is the best weekend I can think of"
@Said_Sasha It's both true and very rare, unfortunately.
do you ever get to help pick out Maura's wardrobe?
@MollyVegas The bring me different options and choices and I help pick out of those yes.
thought i would say hi and let you know you are inspiring. as a dance lover have you ever tried argentine tango?
@SabrinaLChurch thanks very much, done the tango but not argentine.
Have you both tasted dried mangoes?
@firedragonfire yes, but they are usually filled with sugar so I don't eat them very often.
We get to see a different side to Maura this season. Will we get to see her cut loose, so to speak?
@Sashanista We will get to see some different pieces of her yes.
what was it like being in 'mud' for 4 hours?
@TheChuckfan not bad, just couldn't move.
Hey, what do you think of Poppy Montgomery?
@Sashanista I know her actually and like her. :)
Do you like ice skating, did you use to be an ice skater?
@MarySimpson18 yes and yes.
Have you watched any episodes of American Horror Story?
@MollyVegas just a couple.

@nannyluvscmu I try to reply to everyone at some point in time, nothing personal.

I'm wondering if you've ever met Chris Colfer. Have you?
@Ana_Buske I see him a lot, they film a few stages over from us.
no one can explain to me how to flip an egg or a pancake without wrecking it. Is this the true secret of life? I think yes.
@snufftastic It's all in the wrist from what I hear.

@Amanda_D_Mota yes, when I have time.

@BonjourSasha Nope.

@SimplyAlisha_ WOW is probably one of the better words to describe it, ha! It got really weird for awhile but is become a little better now.
Some Sashanistas are reading 50 shades along with you! What do you think so far?
@DameDiva Ha ha... I have so much to say about it, i could never fit it here!

When Maura does the Ultra cute (head tilt wink) 'The Maura'! Is that smethg you do? Or Is it for that character?

@MollyVegas I would say a little bit, yes.
do you still keep in touch with any people from the cast of NCIS?
@IamAlexxxxx Yes, when I can.
I Wonder If @SashaAlexander1 ever thinks about us #Sashanistas and feels happy to have such dedicated fans.

Michael Weatherly said "@SashaAlexander1 is SMOOSH because we worked so many hours on #NCIS eps 1-46 she would fall asleep on her desk. Drool. Smoosh."
Sasha: there you go! :)
I got on Twitter just to help with the 100,000 Sashanista strong movement.

When you first became an actress did you expect to become such a role model and also an icon in the lesbian community?
Sasha: No, but I am honored.

@MollyVegas Absolutely!

Do you think different colored eyes are cool or weird?
@P1nkpanthacr8zy Cool considering I have them myself!
Hi sasha, when the promo launches the third season?
@GongRojas We just filmed them this week, so hopefully in the next month or so!
was it fun to step into Maura's shoes again? ;) ha
@MollyVegas Ha! They aren't always the most comfortable shoes... lol!
Think @SashaAlexander1 would share with us all of the new scientific & medical terminology she must learn this season?
@OuttaMyMindBBL Maybe, I have some autopsy scenes to shoot on Monday, so we shall see!
Do you read your WhoSay comments? :)
@Sashanista Try to yes.
Janet Tamaro: Life is good. Two great days of filming kick off our 3rd Season.
