Five Questions Interview

elenearielThe Rules:
1. Leave a comment saying you want to be interviewed.
2. I'll reply and give you five questions to answer.
3. You'll update your LJ with the five questions answered.
4. You'll include this explanation.
5. You ask other people five questions when they want to be interviewed. And it just keeps going, and going, and going.
1. Which of Tolkien's characters is your favorite?
Éowyn--we're not as similar as we used to be, but I still identify with her a great deal. She's followed a close second by Aragorn, though.
2. You're interested in many things Celtic - is it also a part of your heritage?
Unfortunantly not. I'm just very interested in ancient Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and Britian.
3. If you could learn three languages effortlessly, which would you choose and why?
Italian--because I love the language and would like to visit Italy
Latin--just because it's fun
Welsh--because it's so unusual and interesting. And rather close to Tolkien's languages! (Which I have done quite a bit of dabbling in)
4. Who is your beloved classic author?
Children's author would be A. A. Milne, adult would have to be Charlotte Brontë (for Jane Eyre). I have many, many more classic authors that I love, and it's only because I can't think of all their names right now that I haven't made this a huge list instead of two names!
5. Do you like historical novels? Any authors you can recommend?
Yes, I love historical novels! It's hard to think of any right off the top of my head besides Gone with the Wind, but I definitely like historical. Eras of interest are anything ancient (be it Roman, Greek, Celtic, etc.), the American Civil War, and World War II.
Authors to recommend: I'm not sure if he counts as historical, but Steven Lawhead is awsome at evoking the feeling of ancient Britian and all things Celtic. His Pendragon Cycle series (about King Arthur) are amazing. He wrote a novel about St. Patrick that was very good, as well as some about the Crusades. And more, such as the Song of Albion series which is Celtic-based.
Good questions, thank you,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Today has been better then yesterday by far. Although that card is going to puzzle me until I get it figured out. Gah.
