I voted Beauty and the Beast, but it's not necessarily the greatest. >> It was just the very first movie I saw in the cinema. I was...five years old, I think. Anyway, I honestly could not say which Disney animated film is the best. But IMO, their early works were the true masterpieces. BatB, The Lit...

Glad for this topic, as mine's a bit of a trick.

Selwyn is simple: SEHL-win.

Megaera is more difficult: mah-GEHR-ah.

If someone can't pronounce Meg, my nickname, I'll throw my grammar books down the toilet, á la Ginny Weasley. ;)

Megaera is, of course, one of the Furies (Erinyes) of Greek mythology. I chose it because there is a character in the HP books called Alecto and she is another of the Furies. Megaera also sounds like a good, pureblooded name, which is what my HOL character is supposed to be. ;) Selwyn is from the H...

Megaera Selwyn, reporting for duty! :D You can just call me Meg. I'm 22, from Texas, USA and have quite the obsession with Harry Potter. Ask my friends - off the top of my head, I can tell you all the tiny little details of the books without looking them up. They complain that it's too freaky, ha! ...

My story is relatively straightforward. When I was 11, I was desperate for well-written, engaging and challenging books to read; unfortunately, at the time, most books with those specifications were for adults and it bothered my dad to see me reading "grown-up" books. (Note that my mum never cared ...

I read a little over 500 last year. I kid you not. I wasn't real swift in math in high school, but I was so talented in English that I "graduated" from all classes pertaining to it when I was 12. Y'know those anal retentive English teachers who insist on perfect grammar at all times and talk so pro...

Hey, y'all! I'm from good ol' Tejas - that's Texas, for those who didn't pass Spanish in high school. :P I spent the years of my life that science says are responsible for personality there, so I'm pretty much a Texan through and through. I don't really say "y'all" all that often, though. Just when ...
