@ashlyvye Heyo! You can call me Skredder or you can call me Taylor. Technically, they are the same thing. Skredder means ātailorā in Norse, and thatās what Taylor means. So, either one I guess. š
Superpowers are awesome! Itās always fun to just sit around and try to come up with new powers or rethink powers already used, and try to use them in a different way.
Um, I tend to write either medieval stories or futuristic stories. Iāve got four projects right now. Two of them range from 1000 AD to 1600 AD. And the other two are futuristic. One specifically takes place way in the future. The other is present day but in space.

February 15, 2018 at 11:15 am #63667@ashlyvyeĀ Hello, there!Ā Have you heard of Pottermore??Ā Itās pretty neatā¦Iām a Hufflepuff, by the way.Ā Anyway, welcome!

February 15, 2018 at 11:24 am #63669You looked up your name in Norse?Ā Nice! That is a really good idea!
Ā
Ooo, medieval and futuristic?Ā That sounds interesting!Ā I find it funny you like writing storyās in completely different time periods.Ā What kind of things do you like to read?

February 15, 2018 at 11:39 am #63672@ingridrdĀ Ā Ā Hi!Ā Yes, I have an account on Pottermore and am in Gryffindor there too!Ā Ā Other than Harry Potter, what kind of books do you like reading (and writing)?
*insert awesome signature because I'm a bit too lazy to come up with one*
February 15, 2018 at 11:54 am #63677@ashlyvye Well, usually I like reading mystery and action and adventure stories: Nancy Drew, Kingdomās Dawn, Raiders From the Sea, A Wrinkle in Time. Usually, Iām not big on reading historical fiction, but the latest two books Iām reading are historical fiction and they are really goodā¦in my opinion. š

February 15, 2018 at 11:54 am #63678@ashlyvye Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet!! I love Marvel too, although I confess I didnāt care for Wonder Woman and donāt expect to like Thor: Ragnarokā¦ Batman Begins was good though, although thatās the only Batman movie Iāve seen. Anyway. Enough of that. Nice to meet a fellow Gryffindor! Although Iām kind of split between Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclawā¦ I think itās my disregard for the rules that lands me in Gryffindor.
Whatās your patronus? And how long have you been writing?
Silence! Silence everyone, for the king's speech!
February 15, 2018 at 11:58 am #63679@ashlyvye Rochellaine is good.Ā šĀ Sorry, but I prefer to be mostly anonymous on the internet.Ā My ānameā is a merger of the names of two of my favorite actresses: Rochelle Hudson and Jeanne Crain.Ā Funny, youāre the first person whoās said they thought my name wasnāt my real one. šĀ But everyone calls me just Rochellaine around here.
Favorite? How do you pick just one? Well, maybe Superman ā but not the modern broody ones.Ā I actually havenāt seen any of the Superman movies, but Iāve seen clips of them and read the synopses, so out of the movie Supermen I would choose the 1978 original with Christopher Reeve.Ā Especially since that was back when they still included āThe American Wayā in his āwhy Iām hereā speeches.Ā I also like the TV Superman played by Dean Cain inĀ Lois and Clark, but just the first three seasons.Ā After that the show turned weird and kinda dark and I donāt watch the later episodes.Ā The first couple of seasons are really cute, though. š
After Superman it would be Flash; the version by Grant Gustin ā again, only in the first two seasons. šĀ As for Batman, I think heās cool, but my favorite version of him would have to be the 1966 campy show with Adam West.Ā Have you seen any of that?Ā Itās hilarious.Ā Wonder Woman is only okay, sorry. š I also like the Green Arrow some.
Funny I realize I know so much about this stuff, when most of the stuff I watch is old 1940s/50s dramas and musicals with minimum action and no superpowersā¦
I sing all the time.Ā I take voice lessons, so thatās my main instrument.Ā I also āmiddlin'ā play violin, piano, and harp, all classical style.Ā With voice, I sing both classical/opera and old Americana (1860s to 1960s).
And donāt worry about ramblingā¦I do it all the time! š

Welcome, welcome to the kingdom of pen! Weāre glad to have you ^.^
Superheros huh? I have a superhero story too! (And I used to have a character named Reese! He sadly doesnāt exist anymore tho)
Ehem anyways.. What sorts of things do you like to do when youāre not writing? Any other hobbies? šand I was so confused
February 15, 2018 at 12:00 pm #63682@ashlyvye Oh!Ā I forgot to askā¦Do you like Star Trek?
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
February 15, 2018 at 12:17 pm #63691@ashlyvyeĀ Oh cool!Ā I write fantasy and fiction and read the same.Ā Some of my favorite books besides Harry Potter are Lord of the Rings, The Giver Quartet, and Percy Jackson.Ā š

February 15, 2018 at 12:23 pm #63694@mnvalentineĀ Ā Ā Ā I liked the emotion in Wonder Woman.Ā Iāll admit that I wish there was a bit more of a characterĀ arc in several of the characters (mainly the bad guys, I wish they were slightly more important in the storyā¦) but in my opinion, I think it was really fun.
I know youāre thinking that Ragnarok is going to be like the first and second of Thor (which werenātĀ very funny at all) but this one is totally different.Ā They got a new director with this super weird name (itās islandishĀ and sounds really cool) and this guy decided to flip the movie around, shake it a few times, then set it down on the rocky grounds of hilariousĀ with a hint of seriousness in the comedy (sorry about that, if we talk more youāll find I tend to use strange metaphors like thisā¦)Ā Ā There are tons of jokes (like when -not a spoiler, promise- Thor has to fight Hulk, then he turned back into Banner much later and asks who won.Ā Thor says: āI won. Easily.ā When he would have won if *bleep-spoiler* didnāt happen) and the whole movie plot is so much more fun then the past movies!
*hem* *hem*Ā Annnyywwwaayyy, I think that may be the same reason Iām in Gryffindor.Ā I mean, I love to learn rules but tend to find perfectly logical reasons to break them anyway.Ā Like earlierĀ in this thread, I tagged six people instead of five in the same post.Ā Iām a total rulebreaker.Ā š
Okay, so my Patronus is a house cat.Ā Donāt think of Umbridge, please.Ā I have one cat, she has three.Ā I have a Ragdoll cat, she has tabby cats (I thinkā¦)Ā Ā I got a Porcupine on Pottermore, but decided to change it myself because I <i>despise</i> Porcupines (thinks to self: You donāt hate porcupines.Ā You just love Ragdolls so much more than them and decided they must be your Patronus)
Iāve been writing for about a year and a half.Ā Before that, I didnāt like writing at all.Ā I could barely write a page an a half in a week.Ā Now I can write a thousand words per day and love it!Ā What about you?

February 15, 2018 at 12:27 pm #63695@skredderĀ Ā Iām usually not a fan of Historical Fiction as well.Ā Ā
In fact, when I told my friend I didnāt like history, ingeneral,she sorta freaked out.Ā Ā Iāve been told A Wrinkle in Time is one I should read several times, how far through are you?*insert awesome signature because I'm a bit too lazy to come up with one*
February 15, 2018 at 12:30 pm #63697@ingridrdĀ Ā Ā I love Lord of the Rings!Ā Iāve watched the moviesĀ about 5 times each and plan to read the books soonā¦ probably.Ā Are the books much better than the movies?Ā Theyāre just so long Iām not sure if I want to take all that time to read it when Iāve already watched them all.

February 15, 2018 at 12:39 pm #63698@notawriterĀ Ā Ā Ā Ā Thatās cool!Ā At first, when my friend chose Reese as his name I wasnāt sure, but it seems to tie in nicely with everything (we still havenāt decided if weāre going to get the Reese Peanut Butter cups or something like that and add it in for fun. š
Other than reading, writing, and drawing, I like climbing trees, all outdoor sports (especiallyĀ Baseball, Soccer, and Basketball,) playing with my little sister, creating random things like small igloos (the packing snow is crazy where Iām on vacation,) making jewelry, Ping-Pong, talking with my friends, and getting ahead in school (I homeschool.)Ā What do you like to do when youāre not writing or reading?

February 15, 2018 at 12:54 pm #63699@ashlyvyeĀ Yeah, I know itās everywhereā¦
Right, I listen to a lot of Christian music, too. But my favorite thing right now to listen to is instrumental music. Especially new age music.
I love TobyMac! Heās one of my favorite singers! Which is your favorite album? Mine is This is Not a Test. Have you ever listened to Switchfoot or Hollyn?
Ahh, you like Harry Potter! And you know your house!! So far I have only read the first book, but I really want to read the other ones. My house is Ravenclaw š
Which online test would you recommend for figuring out a house? The one that I took didnāt have percentages
You can pronounce it however you want.
