1. Name (please avoid your real full name): David

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

3. Family (single/married/kids): Married with a son.

4. Occupation: Software Developer

5. How you learned about NarniaWeb: (I've been reading NarniaWeb since the Waldon/Disney movies - since about 2009-ish, I think I originally found it in a web search for movie news way back in the day).

6. How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: 9 years old when they were read to me, 12 when I read them for myself.

7. How many times have you read the Chronicles: Too many to count, I had a tradition of reading them once every semester during my high school years and have read them occasionally as an adult.

8. Favorite of the Chronicles: The Horse and His Boy (I love the character growth.  All four of the main characters want to get to Narnia for a better way of life, but they all have something of an anti-Narnian mindset.  Bree loves being a great war horse, but it is only because he is a captive that he can be a great war horse - as a free horse, he will be just another guy.  Aravis is proud and sees herself as better than a beggar boy like Shasta, but she wants to go to a land where women are not seen as possessions and where there isn't the hierarchy that allows her to be proud.  Shasta doesn't want to be just another beggar / slave, and yet he has a little-man complex - it's great!)

9. Hobbies and/or interesting things about you: Before being a father: 3D Computer Animation, Movies, playing various sports, video games.  After being a dad: watching kids movies, reading children's books, playing with my sons toys - oh and sleep! 🙂

A big, warm welcome to NarniaWeb, @DavidD! How wonderful you have been reading The Chronicles of Narnia all these years, and are now introducing them to your son. 

I love your thoughts on The Horse and His Boy. Wonderful, treasured stuff, indeed!

And, as for sleep, ooh, yes, I well recall those days when our kiddos were very young. Life sure changes, doesn't it, when one has children?! But what a privilege. Sounds like you have some great and memory-making times with your son!
