Senior Member Interview

January 31 2008

When were you raised to Aes Sedai of the Red Ajah?

The first time I was raised January 2003, and the second time August 14, 2005.

Why did you choose Red?

I went Red because the Ajah holds the same values that I do: Inner strength; Independence; Sisterhood; Self reliance; and getting the job done no matter what.

Are you like the Red in the Books?

I used to not think so, until I genuinely looked at who the Reds are in the books. I believe they are similar to our Ajah now, however, because they have many of the same traits. They are independent - they don't feel the need to have a warder. They do their job despite being disliked for it. Since being a Red at TarValon.net, my view of the book Reds has completely changed. Now I think they pretty much rock!

How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

My time as a Citizen was fun. I was coming back from being a Retired Senior Member, so I already knew many people on the site. That probably made my time a little easier than others, since I didn't have to get to know people and find sponsors. My time as a Novice and Accepted was really fun too.

How long have you been a member of TV.net?

I believe this week (around September 29 or 30) is my 5 year anniversary. Of course, there were a few months in there where I was retired, so subtracting a few months I would say I have been a member for almost five years.

What things do you do for TV.net?

I have been a Sitter a few times. I have been a Mentor. I have been the Heart of the Reds. And I post tons of pictures of my beagle Ella!

Should we be scared because you're Red?

Nope! The Reds are a lovely bunch of women. Don't be scared, and try to get to know them.

How did you get to read the Series?

I saw the Eye of the World at a used bookstore and thought Moiraine was cute. Then I read the back cover and thought it sounded fabulous - so I bought it.

If Reds could have bonded, do you think you would have?

Bonding is simply not for me.

Who is your mentee, if you have one?

Calenthe te'Veile, who is a Novice, and Eliana Alarwyn, an Accepted.

Who is your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?

My favorite character is Moiraine, and my favorite nation is Cairhien.

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 have attended a few, and I highly recommend them. You finally get to see face to face the people you talk to almost every day online. Plus, they're lots of fun.

What kind of music do you like?

I like just about every genre of music, if the particular song is appealing to my ears.

What are your favorite movies?

The Abyss, Aliens, Star Wars, The Breakfast Club, Serenity, Charade, The Gambit, Bourne Identity....

What job do you have?

I edit and help maintain a website on Buddhist films.

Do you have a pet?

My lovely beagle named Miss Ella. Three cats - Wicket, Maverick, and Parker.

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

I wanted to be a Marine when I was four, and I saw a film on bootcamp. I thought it looked like tons of fun.

Elaida or Pevara?

Both!

Shadar Logoth or Manetheren?

Manetheren

Roses or Lilies?

Roses

Dogs or cats?

Dogs

A short bio about yourself.

I live in Houston, Texas, and I am about to turn twenty-one. I am quite obsessed with knitting, and I am starting to get into quilting as well. Fun stuff!
