Welcome to NarniaWeb, CaptainM! Glad you joined us! :-h

Since you like hockey, you might enjoy the thread for sports discussion. You might like the books thread, too! I don't think we have a thread that's solely focused on history-related discussion right now, but it occurs to me that one could be a good idea! History is a really interesting subject.

Enjoy browsing the forum, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask! :)

Hey, I'm EmpressJadis, real name Nicolette Elizabeth, I'm a 12 yo American girl. My mom first read me the Magicians Nephew when I was about four and I first attempted to read them independently when I was about six. I had read all by the time I was seven. I think I've fully read the chronicles about five/six times. ( I'm a good reader ;)). I must have read Voyage of the Dawn Treader like 12 times though. My fave characters always been Edmund. I even named by dog after him! ( Edmund Skandar Francois). Skandar after Skandar Keynes, the actor who plays Edmund. Anyway. That's me!

Welcome to NarniaWeb, EmpressJadis! :-h You have a neat username and a lovely real name, too! I'm also an Elizabeth in real life, though most people around here call me Rose. :) Big props to you for reading the entire Narnia series by the time you were seven! That's awesome!

Since you're such a prolific reader, I bet you'd love the books thread. You might also want check out the Pets Blog, too. I would love to see a photo of Edmund Skandar Francois someday! With a name that awesome, he's bound to be a pretty awesome dog. B-)

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! See you around the forum. :)

1. Name (please avoid your real full name): Keri
2. King or Queen of Narnia (guy or girl): Queen
3. Family (single/married/kids): Single
4. Occupation: Mystery writer
5. How you learned about NarniaWeb: Internet insomnia and surfing the web for Narnia news.
6. How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: My mom first read the series aloud with me when I was seven. A friend of ours who owns a Christian Book store recommended them after we finished The Exitorn Adventure series by Peggy Downing. I'm 32 now, so it's been a while!
7. How many times have you read the Chronicles: Too many to count..
8. Favorite of the Chronicles: It changes, but right now The Silver Chair.
9. Hobbies and/or interesting things about you: I love to read, mostly mysteries, suspense, and historical fiction. I also enjoy writing mysteries, playing with my dog (Maltese/Shih Tzu/Japanese Spaniel cross), watching gymnastics, and listening to film soundtracks, mostly those of movies too violent for me to enjoy watching because their music is the best. I also like watching the older TV series on DVD (Hart to Hart, Mission Impossible, etc.) and I like listening to the WWII era music like Vera Lynn. This started because of reading WWII fiction, but now it also makes me feel closer to my grandmother, who passed away a couple of years ago. My favorite song from then is "Coming In On A Wing & A Prayer." And last but most important, I'm a lifelong Christian.

Alright, now it's your turn! :)

Wow, a mystery writer! That's so cool! I'd love to see you post in Writer's World sometime and talk about your craft. :D (Also wouldn't mind seeing a picture of your dog over at the pets blog; he sounds like a cutie!) I bet you'd also love the books thread since you're a prolific reader!

Hope to see you around the forum, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask! Have fun exploring! :)

QueenEsther, welcome to NarniaWeb! We are so glad you joined the community here. :) How cool you have had a small business since such a young age! So, I gather you like crafts. ;) Btw, we will totally not think you're weird when you quote Narnia! B-) You're in good company here!

We do have a photography topic, so let me try and find it ... aha, here 'tis. The thread is now locked, but we can certainly open it, if you wish. Feel free to PM me—or either of the other Spare Oom mods—if you would like us to. :)

8. Favorite of the Chronicles: The Silver Chair, and probably The Last Battle... this is such a hard question!!

Indeed! In fact, one of my favourite answers to this is "whichever one I am reading at the time". ;)) But if I had to be put to it, I would choose The Silver Chair. Every single one of those Chronicles means so much. ♥

Hi! I've also been a frequent visitor, I was always too shy to just join the forum and participate in the discussions. I hope I can bring nice ideas and opinions just like all of you!

1. Name (please avoid your real full name): Carla
2. King or Queen of Narnia (guy or girl): Queen
3. Family (single/married/kids): Single
4. Occupation: College student. I was studying Journalism, but I had to move to another state, so I stopped and decided to study Museology on a new university, but now I just want to go back to Journalism again, haha.
5. How you learned about NarniaWeb: I can't remember exactly, but I think that I searched online for Narnia websites after watching Prince Caspian, and a lot of news that I read on a site dedicated to Narnia in my country were from here, so I decided to check and here I am!
6. How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: Hm, I think I was 12.
7. How many times have you read the Chronicles: Wow, I don't know! Maybe 10 times? Sometimes I read only a specific book, and sometimes I just read all the chronicles together.
8. Favorite of the Chronicles: What a cruel question! I think My favorite ones are The Magician's Nephew, The Horse and His Boy and The Last Battle. This is so hard!!
9. Hobbies and/or interesting things about you: I'm a huge and passionate fan of A Series of Unfortunate Events!!! I'm from Brazil, I'm vegetarian, I have a dog and I write books, but I've never published any of them, haha. I love animation and I was taking japanese classes for a year, but I had to stop because of university. I'm extremely shy, too. I love the Edwardian and Victorian ages and... I don't know what else I can say!

Hi Lake Lachrymose, welcome to Narniaweb. You write books? That is so cool! I love writing books too, though I've also never published :) if you want, you could check out Writer's World it's a special thread for all those creative people who love to write :)

Ooh the Victorian and Edwarian ages, those are my favorite ages as well :)

always be humble and kind
