I was a Citizen when that was a new idea. It was okay; not memorable, really. When I decided to join the Tower, I spent as little time as Novice as possible. Being a Blue Accepted was great, and I stayed that way for nearly a year.

I attended the Anniversary Party in Corpus Christi, Texas in March of 2006. I had a good time, though I was crazy sick with a bad virus. It was good to see my friends, meet new people, and hang out with members of my Ajah. And go swimming and stay up all night in a giant slumber party atmosphere.

Why did you choose Blue?

I feel more Blue than anything else, both in terms of the Blue ideals in the books and on this site.

Are you like the Blues in the Books?

Somewhat, yes. I am very independent, prefer to choose my own paths and causes, and expect everyone else to help enact my great ideas. (I kid...but only a little.)

Do you plot and manipulate? Do you travel a lot?

I plan and problem-solve, anyway. I travel as much as I possibly can.

How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

I was a Citizen when that was a new idea. It was okay. When I decided to join the Tower, I spent as little time as Novice as possible. Being a Blue Accepted was great, and I stayed that way for nearly a year.

What things do you do for TV.net?

I am a cheeky and personable member of my Ajah; I mentor novices and Accepted; I teach classes occasionally; I participate in projects and other site efforts.

How did you get to read the Series?

I was introduced by a family member and by my friend and then-roommate, Katarianna Sedai here at TV.net.

Who's your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?

I'm partial to Lan and Mat. I wouldn't say I have a "favorite nation" though.

Have you ever attended any Real Life Functions? Did you like them if you did, and why? (Why do you think people should come to any future functions?)

I attended the Anniversary Party in Corpus Christi, Texas in March of 2006. I had a good time. It was good to see my friends, meet new people, and hang out with members of my Ajah. And go swimming and stay up all night in a giant slumber party atmosphere.

What kind of music do you like?

Good music. No, seriously. Indie, folk, alt-folk and alt-country indie, various forms of rock, underground hip-hop, classical, old-fashioned R&B and classic blues, good electronic and much more. I prefer vinyl to CD, albums to singles and so forth.

What are your favorite movies?

There are many, I'm sure. Wet Hot American Summer comes to mind.

What's the craziest/stupidest thing you've ever done?


What job do you have?

I work in publishing, specifically marketing & communications, currently at a private university.

Do you have a pet?

Three cats. One day I will have a zoo.

What languages do you speak?

English, some German, a little Italian.

What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?

Many. I think I changed my mind a couple times a year. Oh wait, I still do.

Moiraine or Siuan?

Moiraine

Shienar or Saldaea?

Saldaea

Tea or coffee?

Both

Books or movies?

Books

A short bio about yourself.
