Introduction Thread II

BarbarianKing,

I am older than Aslans Messenger :D and of course, posting on the 102nd page (or whatever page) is special if your words are true and uplifting!
 
So, Jearena, you already know Sarah? She is one of my imaginary relatives here. I have a swarm of nieces and granddaughters, plus a couple of brothers.
 
Welcome Andrew, already a very active member, good to see you around so many parts of the forum already!

And welcome to both of you too: Shirley and SeaStar. Nice to have you here!

Have a great time all :)
 
I apologize for the belated introduction.

FAQ:
Q. Are you a real Calormen, or some dude who is inspired by C.S.Lewis to create a Calormen character on a TDL?
A. Imbecile!

Q. Are Calormens really as nasty as they are made out to be?
A. In our culture, your word "nasty" means efficient.

Q. Do Calormens really sacrifice people to Tash?
A. Lies and propaganda! Animals, slaves and other property, yes. People No!

Q. Was C.S.Lewis a bit racist in his portrayal of your people?
A. He was a wonderful chronicler who wrote in a style we Calormens call cynical. Within our literature there are epics concerning such things as dung beetles, where they are portrayed as noble and worthy.
In this manner Lewis, by implication, demonstrated the utter superiority of our civilization and the lamentable state of the Narnian barbarian.
Any reader of discernment will see that. So, racist? Perhaps but the Narnians have only themseves to blame.

Q. Do you have any questions / observations?
A. Yes, my position of Tarkaan has not granted me sufficient privilege to include a portrait of myself (avatar) nor the permission to post my journals in your writers section?
 
Welcome everyone! Enjoy this wonderful world of The Dancing Lawn!

Tarkaan, you'll be allowed to have an avatar and start new threads after you have 10 posts. (Interesting Q & A, by the way.)
 
Hiya

Hey everyone!

My name is IrishSongBird, otherwise known simply as Irish. One of your awesome members, EveningStar, started posting over on the website I help run a few months ago and has gushed about how wonderful The Dancing Lawn is, so I decided to come over here and introduce myself. :)

I turn 24 next week and am currently in graduate school for history, which keeps me pretty busy. I used to be a musical theater major, so it's quite a turnaround for me. I still sing as much as possible, but don't have the time to act. I try to stay creative by writing my Narnia fan fic and helping to run the website Narnia Fan Fiction Revolution. I also host the podcast AsCast and am an administrator for Revolution Radio, which is an audio fan fiction podcast. SO, I just wanted to network with some other fans over here and hopefully get to know some of you a bit better!

Hope everyone has an awesome weekend! :)
