=={{blueheader2}}Tower Sworn Interview==
''Interview, January 29, 2008''

;Why did you choose Blue?
When I first guested with Blue, I felt truly welcome. Since then the Blues quickly became Sisters.

;Are you like the Blues in the Books?
Yes, and no. While I am like the book Blues, I'm also like the book Whites. 

;Do you plot and manipulate? Do you travel a lot?
Perhaps. :look
If I had more time and money I'd love to travel more. 

;How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?
It has been a while since I was both a citizen and I novice, but I did enjoy my time at each level. I enjoyed both my times as Accepted. 

;How did you get to read the Series?
Back in 1990 I was in a bookstore looking for a book to read, where I noticed "Eye of the World" on a shelf of featured fiction. It looked interesting so I decided to give it a try. I was immediately hooked.

;Who's your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?
Siuan, I like her attitude, even after she was stilled she had a resiliance to carry on. 
I don't have a favorite nation. 

;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 was at Dragon*Con in 2006 and 2007. I truly believe that if anyone has a chance to go to one, they should.

;What kind of music do you like?
Rock, and Country-Rock.

;What's the craziest/stupidest thing you've ever done?
Agreeing to marry my current husband after dating for only 5 weeks. 

;What job do you have?
Currently I type appraisals for a real estate company. 

;Do you have a pet?
I have 2 kitties named Libby and Rafta. 

;What languages do you speak?
English. 

;What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?
I wanted to be a pharmacist, but I was never able to pass chemistry. 

;Moiraine or Siuan?
Siuan.

;Shienar or Saldaea?
Shienar.

;Tea or coffee?
Either. 

;Books or movies?
Books. 

;A short bio about yourself.
At 41 I'm one of the older members on the site. When I was first raised Aes Sedai in March of 2006, it was as Aes Sedai of the White. In July of 2007 I returned to Accepted to re-explore my options because as much as I loved being White, I felt as if something was missing. That's when I found my home with the Blues. I don't regret for a minute the choices I've made here.
