@jo thank you! I write, make beaded bracelets, somewhat sew, color adult coloring books, and sing. 

Sounds lovely! I am not at all a craft-talented person , but as for music, it is in my very bones and heart, so it is a huge part of my life, and has been from a young age. The older I get, the greater it becomes ever more treasured to me.   

Hello and welcome, @brinmarie! I was just remembering, we've got a "Your Hobbies" discussion thread here:

https://community.narniaweb.com/index.php/community/the-spare-oom/your-hobbies/#post-348379

And also one for sewing and other needlework:

(Which reminds me, I've just finished a major cross stitch piece that I'd love to share there, if I can manage to post a photo... )

Hope you enjoy being part of the community here! 

I've been getting back into Narnia recently and realized I have never posted in here to introduce myself! It's only been 7 years 😏 anyway, without further ado

Welcome back to Narnia, scientific_archer / @sirvincentofnarnia, and back to NarniaWeb!

And all the best on this final year of your Masters in Agricultural research. Sounds interesting! We have a university an hour away from us that specializes in agricultural, as well as veterinary medicine. A few of my friends have gone there for these specialties and loved the learning process.

Hello, all!

1. Name (please avoid your real full name): I go by Merian or Meri online.

2. King or Queen of Narnia (guy or girl): Queen

3. Family (single/married/kids): single

4. Occupation: I work at a craft store. (I love it.)

5. How you learned about NarniaWeb: I’m pretty sure I learned about it through the costume site. All I know for sure is I knew about it before Prince Caspian came out because that is when I started stalking the site for news. I’ve been a long time lurker.

6. How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: I have absolutely no idea. I’m pretty sure I must have watched the BBC Narnia series before reading, since my family had a tradition of watching that LWW every Christmas for several years, but I don’t remember not knowing the books. 

7. How many times have you read the Chronicles: my best estimate is at least 20 times, but it’s hard to say.

8. Favorite of the Chronicles: For a long time The Horse and his Boy and Prince Caspian were tied as my favorites, but currently HHB edges just slightly ahead in this race. 

9. Hobbies and/or interesting things about you: Hmm. I’m in the exact middle of six siblings, I like to read, to knit, to knit while reading (sometimes), and to design sweaters. I can use a drop spindle or a spinning wheel (the drop spindle is, believe it or not, often faster for me) and sometimes I write. Which means I can spin yarns and also spin yarns. 

@lady-merian welcome! I hope you enjoy getting to know us. 

Welcome @lady-merian. Pretty username. "Meri" is cute too. So glad you have joined the forum after lurking for years.

How great you enjoy your craft store job so much. I laughed aloud at your witty "I can spin yarns and also spin yarns."  Clever! And interesting. All the best with both!  

Enjoy the discussions here!

Welcome back, Sir Vincent!

And welcome to the forum, Lady Marian. 🙂

Thank you @coracle, @sir-cabbage, and @jo! (Heh, glad you liked the play on words. Admittedly I don’t do enough of one kind of spinning these days, which is a shame because it’s great for brainstorming for the other kind. In reality I do more drawing or even sewing than spinning…which I somehow neglected to mention.)

Welcome to Narniaweb, @lady-merian! Hope you enjoy many discussions we have about Narnia and related things! Great to have you!
