Senior Member Interview

Last Updated - January 29th 2008

Why did you choose Blue?

It was the place I could be me. I can do my own thing, have my own opinions and not be called down for it.


Are you like the Blues in the Books?

Plotsy, motivated, fight for my cause


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

I travel as much as I can, and I will say that for good or bad, I do plot and manipulate. (I do try to keep using my powers for good tho ;) )


How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

It was interesting! I could have used the time more wisely, getting to know folks - but I was a much shyer person back then


What things do you do for TV.net?

I'm the newly appointed General Services Manager, I also work with the Online Events Team as Ilissa's assistant. In the past I've been the Tailor's Guildmaster and served a year term as Sitter for the Blue Ajah


How did you get to read the Series?

a friend recommended them in Highschool. I had a crush on him, so I started reading them. The crush didn't last, but I did get some good book recommendations from someone who's now a good friend


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

Altara, and Min


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?)

many, and I really enjoy them. It's good to know the person behind the avatar - it helps dispell misconceptions and form friendships you might not have online alone


What kind of music do you like?

Alternative


What are your favorite movies?

Many Disney films, Labyrinth, Pan's Labyrinth


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

Choosing seems so unfair to all the stupid/crazy things I've done


What job do you have?

Do you have a pet?

I spoil the two dogs at my parents house (mini dachshund Penny, standard dachshund Scooter) and my boyfriend's terrier mutt Roscoe

A short bio about yourself.

I'm 25, I live in Galveston Texas, USA. I will eventually get my BA in History. I have two brothers (one who reads WoT). I've been with my boyfriend for four years, and he thinks most of what I do WoT-wise is silly, but he doesn't mind too much. I like to craft and travel and read. Hot tea, spaghetti or a nice medium rare steak will always make the perfect dinner :P
