7. Favorite Earth's Children book? Valley of the Horses

8. Least favorite Earth's Children book? Plains of Passage

9. Favorite Earth's Children character? Ayla, of course! Other than her, Iza, Deegie, Talut, Tholie, and Whinney.

10. Favorite H.C.C. moment? Too many to count! I had a great time at Jac's party and I love it every time we start laughing so hard over typos that we cry! I loved it when we first started, and I've loved all the nights of staying up until the sun came up. Outing "." as rag was hilarious, and thinking of Troy and Brunoxtues always makes me laugh! The night I discovered I was a flamingo, and the night we formed the HCCs. I loved the original "p" party, and the "b" party was even funnier! I can only hope that there are many more momets like these to come, and I'm sure that there will be!

11. Why did you decide to come to the chat in the first place? I read the thread about chatting on the message board, was home with nothing to do on that Tuesday night, so I decided to drop in. I'm *so* glad I decided to!

12. If you were a character in an Earth's Children book, which tribe would you belong to? Sharamudoi, although I think I might want to belong to the Zelandonii after reading Book 5!

13. What is your "bird"? I'm a flamingo! I have a beautiful bright pink color, big yellow beak, long gangly legs, and backwards bending knees that are available for loan.

14. What is one thing about yourself that the H.C.C.'s don't know? This is tough, because I talk about myself so much! I bet most, if not all, of you don't know that when I was little I would dress up and act out Annie. I knew all the lines, all the songs, and my grandmother had made me all the dresses. You wouldn't know that I was once in a tv commercial for a local news station when my dad worked there. I used to have a pet hedgehog named Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle. I hope that's enough interesting (or not so interesting) factoids about me!
