queensthiefSo, we were talking and started interrogating each other and realized that none of us know each other very well at all. Our introductory posts are all generally comprised of "OMFG! Other people who like MWT! *squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!*" because we're just so excited to find this group.
Anyway, I thought maybe a meme might be interesting. If you don't want to do it, then by all means, you don't have to. But hopefully, it'll be a fun way for us to all get to know each other better :)
Meme!
1. Your name, gender (for pronouns sake!)
2. General Geographic Location (as specific or non-specific as you like)
3. How were you introduced to the books?
4. Favorite character. Why?
5. Your favorite band, or site, or book, or whatever: recommend something to us that we might not normally know about
6. Your most used messenger name (and of course, which messenger it's on)
7. Favorite moment/line in the books
8. Pick a theme song for any one of the characters, or an overall book. (Maybe we could make this into a mix cd!)
9. Favorite color! XDD
10. What do you want to be when you get big?
11. What do you want for your birthday?
12. What's your favorite smell?
13. Name something awesome about you, and in the spirit of Gen, totally and shamelessly brag about it.

Newbie here. :)
Date: 2/10/06 05:18 am (UTC)1. Diana, female.
2. Philadelphia suburbs, Pennsylvania.
3. I read Queen of Attolia when it first came out. I was browsing the YA fantasy section (even though I've left my teens behind oh, about 5 years ago), and saw it. The title was catchy, the synopsis interesting, and the first 50 pages enchanting. I only read Thief after-- perhaps that's why I like Irene and QoA the best?
4. Irene. She's such a mix of harsh and soft, good and bad, sorrow and (buried) joy. I especially like how she's developed more of a sense of humor in KoA.
5. Hm... well, just in case people are interested, I did register last week a new Yahoo Groups called "MWTurner". That was before I knew this existed, but I'm sure it can coexist or not, as you all please!
6. PrncssDi16, AIM (Please excuse the utter girlyness of the screenname; I really was 16 at the time)
7. [SPOILER for KoA] -->
When Irene offers Gen her wine cup, to save the poor Eddisean ambassador from expiring of frustration.
8. Uninvited, for Attolia's pov of Gen in QoA. He (perhaps by the hands of the gods), snuck in her heart and love all uninvited...
9. Red.
10. Rich? :)
11. A new book in the series!
12. Cilantro. Really.
13. I love dancing, although I only recently started taking classes. And I'm good at different kinds -- belly, ballroom, Latin, hip-hop, jazz/funk. (Shameless enough?)
