1. Name: The Scribbler, or Ashley, the very plain name
2. King or Queen of Narnia (guy or girl): Queen
3. Family (single/married/kids): Single, and most likely to stay single
4. Occupation: Student, Maid, Chef, imagniner? and writer
5. How you learned about NarniaWeb: A friend of mine showed me and I eventually became more hooked than see was!
6. How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: I started reading them when I was seven and finished when I was twelve. Not really sure why to took me so long to read them. But it was great because I had a long time to chew on these "wonderful new books!"
7. How many times have you read the Chronicles: I have no idea, I've read them a lot. I used to try to limit myself to once a year so I wouldnt get sick of them, but that resolution has long broken
8. Favorite of the Chronicles: The one I just read. I always think "that's my favorite"
9. Hobbies and/or interesting things about you: Reading, writing, definitely not arithmetic... I really love writing, and I try to write classically, if that makes any sense. So many stories these days come up shallow, and I try to change that in my writing. I love music, a lot! I listen to just about everything as long as the lyrics are good. Anything from jazz/swing to rap. I try not to limit myself over genres because a lot of times I like a particular song. I find that certain ranges of notes help me to define what songs I like more than genre. I think about Heaven a lot of the time. Its wonderful to know that once day I will really live with my King and with Generally Awesome Totally Cool People. My greatest aspiration is to be a Generally Awesome Totally Cool Person

Thank you very much. I must admit that I was not the first one to think of it but got the idea from Asterix comics. I collect them. They are quite funny and more sophisticated than super hero comics... at least in my opinion.

5. How you learned about NarniaWeb: I think I was looking up pictures from LWW: the movie, and stumbled across the image gallery several times. And then I lurked, and then I joined. I don't really remember, I just have hazy memories of being scared to post.
6. How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: I give different answers every time I'm asked this... I think I read LWW at age eight, but I rather hated it. And then around age... 9... I read MN, and it was awesome, but it didn't really register to me that it had anything to do with that other book. Then I listened to HHB, at about 10, while driving to Edmonton, and it was awesome, so I became a pseudo-fan.
7. How many times have you read the Chronicles: I've just about memorized all of MN, and I've read HHB about... three times. The others, once or twice or thrice, I really don't know.

Sometimes I think I talk too much.

A Tim Horton's employee, Nioniel? WOOT! (It's great you like coffee. ) I think well over half the high school students in our area are Timmies' employees.
2 questions:
1) Why and how does bacteria interest you?
2) I surely hope you didn't kiss the lamppost in the winter (i.e. tongue getting stuck, OUCH!)
*double-checks to make sure she spelled Nioniel's name correctly* (It has a very pretty sound to it, btw. Is it Tolkien-based (as in based on the name Túrin gave his sister), or am I waaay off base?
Queen Lucy of Narnia, welcome to the forum ... from Norway too! Kind of random: most Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) photos I see online seem to be taken from Norway. You blessed residents! I can imagine, from all I've seen and read, that it is a really beautiful country.
