Senior Member Interview

- Why did you choose Brown?
I chose Brown for lots of reasons, but they can be boiled down into two simple statements: a) it was the only place where I fit, and b) I am extremely Brown in RL. Put the two together, and the choice was a no-brainer.
- Are you like the Browns in the books? Do you love books and have a tendency to daydream?
Yes. I do love books, and I always have one on the go. I love to learn, and I am a naturally curious person. I also like to day dream, and can get easily distracted and "brown out". I've noticed that it is the worst during exams.
- Do you have a favorite Brown Ajah character from the novels?
Verin. Who else?
- How long have you been a fan of the Wheel of Time series?
Umm... 6 or 7 years? I can't quite remember.
- How did you first get into the series?
My brother gave me The Eye of the World for Christmas when I was in my early teens, and I've been hooked ever since.
- Who is your favorite "hero"?
It's changed during the course of the series. It's been Mat for a long time. But I absolutely love Rand's storyline over these last two books.
- Favorite bad guy/gal?
I don't think that I have a "favourite". Lanfear, and possibly Moridin, just because he is so crazy.
- Favorite book and scene?
I don't have a favourite book. But my favourite scenes? Rand completely surprising Cadsuane in ToM. The charge of Malkier / Borderlanders in AMOL. Anything between Rand and Moridin in AMOL.
- If you were set down in Randland, who/what would you see yourself as? An Aes Sedai? Innkeeper? Seanchan Captain?
Aes Sedai!
- How did you find TarValon.Net and what convinced you to stay and become a Senior Member?
I don't remember what convinced me. I think it was the idea of being able to call myself "Aes Sedai" that did it. That, and I'm a total geek. :p
- What do you do in "real life"?
I'm a student, working towards a degree in Anthropology. Beyond that, I haven't decided yet.
- Do you have any hobbies?
Reading, singing in my choir and playing my violin
- What kind of music do you enjoy listening to?
Medieval, classical, fiddle, world music........
- What are some of your favorite movies / television shows?
Big Bang Theory, Game of Thrones, Star Trek. I don't watch a lot of movies, but I did enjoy the Lord of the Rings films.
- Aside from The Wheel of Time, what are a few of your favorite books/series?
I love Tolkien's work, and also Brandon Sanderson, Ursula K. LeGuin, and Tamora Pierce. I also really enjoyed Ender's Game, by Orson Scott Card, Alan Dean Foster's trilogy "Damned", David Brin's Uplift books..... I mostly just read sci-fi and fantasy.
- What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?
Paleoanthropologist, dog trainer, space scientist...
