A little about me... Well, I'm 26, I have a husband and an almost 2 year old son, as well as a fat cat and sweet dog. I'm from Oregon, recently spent 4 years living I'm the Panhandle of Texas, and just moved back to Oregon in the last month.

I heard about this site from other members who happen to also be members on Dragonmount.com, where I am an active member. I just love Wheel of Time communities, and have heard many good things about this site, so I decided to pop over and check things out for myself.

As far as things I enjoy, right now I'm staying home with my son, I have a job set to start Feb 5th and to be honest... I am so ready. I love my son, but being a stay at home mom, while staying with my in laws, is simply exhausting. I am really impressed by those who can do this all the time. Normally I work in the banking industry, which is where I am starting a new job next month. On a personal level, my hobbies are of course reading, video games, dungeons & dragons, and kind of trying to get into painting.

The Wheel of Time has had such a huge impact on my life, it is forever my favorite series. I've also come to love Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere, he is a very impressive writer. Otherwise I've loved the Abhorsen series by Garth Nix, the Pern books by Anne McCaffrey, DragonLance books, the Star Wars EU, and so much more.

Welcome, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

I Love just about all the books you've mentioned! I feel like it is so hard to find other fans of the Abhorsen series!

Welcome! Another Garth Nix fan here, particularly the Old Kingdom books :) I hope your first day at work goes well when it comes! I'm another "couldn't be a SAHM forever" person. Hats off to those who can do it, but it's definitely not for me.

I've been finding more fans recently, it has been a pleasant surprise for sure! For the longest time the only people I knew who had read them were my sister and myself.

I am currently staying in Portland, which is where I grew up. We are going to be moving down to Woodburn in a couple of weeks, since it's so much more affordable to live there. Still not far from the city though! Are you in Oregon too?

I really need to check out more of his work, I bet I would enjoy it. I've only read the Abhorsen trilogy as of right now.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who, while totally respecting SAHM's, could never be one forever, haha!


Thank you everyone for the warm welcome!!

You should read the two that come after the Abhorsen trilogy, they were awesome and well worth the wait!
