"Oh frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!" she chortled in her joy.

A quick explanation of my username (because people have asked):

I'm a big fantasy lit geek, and Tolkien was one of my first loves. "Eruanna" is the elvish word for "grace," which is my name.

317 comes from March 17, my birthday. It's also been a somewhat lucky number for me in the past.

So there you go.... eruanna317!
Name: Grace
Age: 23
Me. Hmmm... I'm 23, a writer, a lover of all things fantasy, a cat person, and if the whole world was brainwashed by an alien space craft one day and we all came out of it talking in iambic pentameter, I totally wouldn't mind. If I were a book, I'd be "Where the Wild Things Are." If you haven't read it, do. It's a picture book, so I promise it won't hassle your already overworked brain cells.

I hug trees. Sometimes trees hug back.
Country: United States
Occupation: writer, beggar, daydreamer
Interests and Hobbies: I like microwaving marshmallow Peeps because they expand to five times their original size. I speak ancient Greek and write Sindarin elvish. I travel. I plot to assassinate garden gnomes. I watch movies, and sometimes I make them. I can't drive anywhere without singing along to good music at the top of my lungs. There are other, more sane, things that I enjoy, but not enough to list them.
Movies and Shows: 12 Angry Men, Dogfight, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Almost Famous, American Graffiti, Billy Elliot. // The Office (UK and US versions), Doctor Who, Torchwood, Spaced, Greek.
Music: Too broad a spectrum to sum up in this little profile box. The only stuff I can't stand is super-twangy country songs, and some rap songs that seem too repetitive or pointlessly obscene. Most of my music favorites would probably fall under the label "Alternative," but that's such a broad descriptor for music that it probably doesn't tell you much. Right now I'm listening to: Amanda Palmer, Brooke Waggoner, Lemon Jelly, the Rumble Strips, and Tori Amos.
Books: I Capture the Castle, Till We Have Faces, the Moorchild, Tale of Desperaux, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Magician's Nephew, Phantastes, Where the Wild Things Are, anything Neil Gaiman, anything Dorothy Parker, anything Poe.

No New Stuff '09 9 Videos
Weekly vlogs for the No New Stuff Project, which was started by the Harry Potter Alliance. Paul DeGeorge of Harry and the Potters and Matt Maggiacomo of The Whomping Willows started No New Stuff by pledging not to buy new stuff for 6 months starting January 1, 2009. The idea is to promote recycling, conservation, conscientious consumerism, wise use of resources, and to get people talking about these issues and more. I, along with Hope (www.youtube.com/chaosLydia) and Jenny Sue (www.youtube.com/Shabogie456) are participating from March 1, 2009 until December 31, 2009... hopefully!)

I call it Lit Rock, but it's not really rock. In any case, these are songs I've written based on literature: poems, quotes from short stories, novels, or essays, or even based on characters from books.

Thank you for the comment and actually having a great year to be honest. I hope you are too. I just want people to know while i don't share your faith it doesn't mean that I hate you or can't call you friend. I wish more people would lose the hatred and self rightous additude and just care for other because well...there human too. Take care.
