1. Name: Pattertwigs Pal (officially but it should be Pattertwig’s Pal)
2. King or Queen of Narnia (guy or girl): Queen
3. Family (single/married/kids): single :(
4. Occupation: Filling out job applications and substitute teaching.
5. How you learned about NarniaWeb: Around when LWW came out, I was looking for information on LWW for a project I was doing with students I watched in an after school program and I found NarniaWeb. I visited it occasionally after that and signed up for the email list around when PC was coming out. I was nervous about joining any online forum so I just looked around a little. Then the Reading Group: Are the Chronicles of Narnia Sexist and Racists? started and I couldn’t resist joining and arguing against both.
6. How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: My parents first read them to me. I think I was in kindergarten at the time so I was probably 5 (but could have been 4 or 6)
7. How many times have you read the Chronicles: Countless times.
8. Favourite of the Chronicles: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
9. Hobbies and/or interesting things about you: I love to read, write stories, cook, bake, decorate cookies and cakes, and play board and card games. I majored in Elementary Education with a Communication Arts and Literature Specialty and German Teaching and minored in Creative Writing. I love grammar and tend to find myself noticing mistakes places. It bothers me that the apostrophe that should be in my username isn’t allowed. :-s I am shy and take a long time to feel comfortable around people and make friends. In class, I would usually be the quiet one who knew the answer to the question but didn’t want to volunteer, except when I would get frustrated that nobody else was answering a question that seemed so easy to me. I have really enjoyed NarniaWeb because it is much easier to state my opinion and discuss things if I can type them first and nobody knows my true identity. :D I also am a huge collector. I collect stuffed animals (I have the official Aslan, Reepicheep, and Trufflehunter, and then a squirrel I named Pattertwig, two beavers I named Mr. and Mrs. Beaver, an owl I named Glimfeather, and a unicorn I named Jewel), Narnia stuff, books (I just visited a school library that was giving away books and found several Narnia books with the correct numbers (LLW is number one :D ) I think some of them have first cover style :D ), American Girl Dolls, and playing cards (I have ones from many of the states I have visited and other places). I enjoy reading mystery and fantasy books. My collection includes Narnia, LOTR, the 56 original yellow covered Nancy Drew books, the original blue covered Hardy Boys books, and reprints of some of the very old Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys books (before they were adapted to make the yellow and the blue ones). I suppose I should stop soon because this is getting rather long, but just a few more things. I have three cats: Mystery, Shadow, and Blitzen. They are all girls. Blitzen used to be a feral cat, but we fostered her to try to tame her. It worked so well we couldn’t give her back the Humane Society. Before we got our current cats, we had one named Clive after C.S. Lewis. My mom was doing a report on Lewis when she and my dad got the cats so she named him Clive.

Mods – if I have rambled on to long feel free to edit it down or ask me to edit it. I’ve noticed it is the longest one yet.

4. Occupation: My junior year of high school is quickly becoming a full-time job, and I am also a part-time organist/pianist for my church.
5. How you learned about NarniaWeb: I can't really recall, but it must have been sometime in the fall of 2005 before LWW's movie premiered.
6. How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: I remember reading LWW as a six or seven year old. I read all of the Chronicles when I was twelve.
7. How many times have you read the Chronicles: LWW, PC, and VotDT I've read too many times to remember, but I've only read the other four two times each, mainly because I start rereading them all and then get distracted by another book.
8. Favorite of the Chronicles: Whichever was the last one I reread, so currently it's Prince Caspian.
9. Hobbies and/or interesting things about you: I love reading and writing, as well as playing piano, flute, and organ. I'm an avid Doctor Who fan and (terribly surprisingly) am practically addicted to anything written by C. S. Lewis. I also collect American Girl dolls and enjoy doing Oral Interpretation and plays at my school.

I lurked around the old forum, but decided that since it's beginning anew, I should finally join. I'm looking forward to my time as part of this community of Narnians!

Name: Kris
King or Queen of Narnia: Queen
Family (single/married/kids): Most definetly single!
Occupation: Currently a student (go homeschoolers!!)
How you learned about NarniaWeb: I think I was googling Narnia and things related to the movie soon after LWW came out (and I was crazed with Narnia fever, have been ever since). I stumbled accross it I'm pretty sure...
How old were you when you first read the Chronicles: Um, I most likely read LWW when I was pretty young (like 10 or younger) but I read the rest of them (including LWW again) soon after the movie LWW came out.
How many times have you read the Chronicles: One time all the way through of course, then MN, LWW, PC, VDT at least twice all around. I flip through all of the books quite often though and read passages here and there while looking for something. ;)
Favorite of the Chronicles: The Last Battle (of course, only if you've read all the others first!)
Hobbies or interesting thing about you: Um, I love to read in general. I love cats. Um....... go read my profile!
