About Me

I'm not the typical fantasy fan. At least not evidenced by the number of fantasy books I've read in my 32 years. I have been reading for 28 of those, thanks to Montessori.
Here is my pitiful attempt to fit in:
-Have loved Lloyd Alexander books since the 5th grade
-Have read LoTR
-Have read Ender's Game
-Have read GRRM's Song of Ice & Fire series - though I wondered why I kept reading when I didn't really care about any of the characters.
-Started reading Jordan's first in the WoT series and didn't make it through the prologue. Maybe it was bad timing.
-Have read Harry Potter series
-Starting reading some fantasy book from the library that had an elk or stag headed person on the cover. It combined the mafia with some fantasy thing happening in the woods. I didn't finish that one and it bothers me to have left it incomplete, even though I didn't like it.
-Read first two of Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden books,
-Started reading Mistborn, but had to take it back to the library. Will return to the story soon!
-And the one to make you all jealous...I've read Black Prism (what's written of it so far) and it is AWESOME! You are going to love the characters and the magic and the way Brent twists your emotions into knots for the story!

I'm really here because I believe in Brent and in his story crafting gifts. Don't worry, I won't get all mushy, though I could certainly gush if you asked me to do so.

Well, look on the bright side - you are the woman that gave him the inspiration. So it is true - women are taking over the world :D

No, seriosly, if you ever come by in The Netherlands, do not forget to contact me. I would really like to meet both of you. Promise? :D

Greetings and a lovely night,
Trajce

Oh my GOD ! You are the WOMAN, woman!
You know what is funny? You welcomed me when I arrived on this forum, but I never thought it was you. Normally, people ask for Brent's signature, but can I have yours? :D

And do you know if he is ever coming to The Netherlands?
I want his signatures on my books.

Many thanks and a beautiful day.

I opened one of the books and read something: For Kristi, Confidante, companion, best friend, bride. They're all for you.

Oh my God, don't say it - - You are Miss Weeks? The Miss Weeks?

It's an advise which I give myself in a sort alike way. Just don't read translations if you understand the language in which the original is written :O.

I managed to finish it thankfully, but cringed when I turned it in because I know there will be some grammar issues to come back and bite me 0_0. Schooling isn't as easy as I seem to recall.... Sorry I missed you guys, sounded like you all had a good time, I really wanted to go too :(.

I fail at this whole social network thing. I just got your note about the book of the month group. Thanks for getting back to me, I should have everything worked out for next time =P

Hey Kristi, I've read it in English. Most of the translations lose a lot of the feeling/humour, so I dislike reading them :-).

Lol, well I try to pass on the small bits of things I've been taught myself, though anyone can talk so we'll see if I can hold up to it come time for another Writer's Group :). I think my family's just doing a little thing around noon for thanksgiving, hope you and Brent find some time to relax and enjoy the holiday yourselves.
