Hi everyone. I'm Readalie and I've been lurking on the
list for a while. I decided it was about time I
introduced myself and started contributing.
The movies I've seen so often I can recite them along
with the characters (and I do admit to having this
extremely annoying habit so much so that my family and
friends will no longer watch some movies with me):
-Star Wars (the original)
-Monty Python and the Holy Grail
-Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, and St Elmo's Fire (I
list them together because in my mind they are all
essentially the same movie, different set)
-Pulp Fiction
-Rocky Horror Picture Show (which is different because
you're *supposed* to quote along with it
As for my pseudonym, it comes from a book by Patricia
McKillip called The Riddle Master of Hed. I don't
remember much about the book, but I do remember that
Readalie was the first female fantasy character I had
read about at 10 who took care of herself. She didn't
sit around waiting for some prince to fix things for
her. I think that's why the name stuck with me. Now I
use it online, at Renn Fests, and whenever I play an
RPG(Of course, since then I've come across all sorts
of self sufficient female characters in fantasy and
elsewhere, but at the time she was pretty special).
Readalie, whose family is trying very hard to convince
her that it's best to be a muggle
