Hehe, nut it is SLAM not Salam. Well it might have some relationship with Salam. :)


Reading, writing, dancing, singing, walking, sewing and...daydreaming

Dear Elizabeth, many of us (Literature freaks) share your interest "day-dreaming" in a way. That is something which is found common in bookworms. :D


Nice girl, full of life and amazingly clever.

Sweet Elizabeth knows how to make one happy. :blush:

- Im 34 - a Gemini
- UK
- 4
- pubs, ... er...mainly pubs
- I want two - Shakespeare and Bukowski.
- I don't have a clear 'favourite', 'horses for courses and all that' - if I could only have one book it would be 'The Complete Works...' of course.
- depends on who you're in love with - and a million other variables!
- Romantic love? Yes - I love Sarah, who I am with now. I have been 'in love' several times before. All very different experiences - some perhaps closer to lust, some closer to need, some closer to crazy. This is much more pleasant!
- I used to have - settled down and so it's more quality over quantity now
- I can't answer that here - I like Elizabeth's answer (see above)
- to wear? Black - but not exclusively
- hmmm - lots. I like clothes. At moment - wearing a pair of big, wafty flared cords, an Olive green sventies style short sleeved shirt (by Original Penguin, if you care - half price in sale) and a pair of s****y Gola trainers, which I regret buying (another sale buy, but cheap don't always mean a bargain!), but they'll do - and you can't really see em under me flares.
- I don't wish for anything material - but if you insist: a bigger house with better garden, a super amazing stereo, a huge CD collection - mine was depleted a few years ago (see question on love) and wasn't that big anyway. I would love thousands. And I know I should MP3 download.
- Certain songs - I'm not technically brilliant, but got a certain something, you know! Have sung in bands briefly. Which might tell you everything you need to know. Particularly the briefly bit.
- Had ' She Don't Use Jelly' by The Flaming Lips in my head all day today.
- more mischievous than naughty - I wasn't malicious, but I got in my fair share of bother as a kid. My teenage years where a little...er...chaotic shall we say!
- I don't really know - looking at Elizabeth's for inspiration - you seem a nice girl.

I also thought that these questions were tough...


Certain songs - I'm not technically brilliant, but got a certain something, you know! Have sung in bands briefly. Which might tell you everything you need to know. Particularly the briefly bit.

Cool, you worked in bands.


Can you sing really? What do you think and what does your friends think?
I like to, I don't think I can, my friends are just nice though.

If you like to sing, then you can. I know it. :D


Where do you live right now? In Denmark with my mom, when i live with my dad, it's in Indonesia

Wow Chava, I knew not that you have lived in Indonesia.

RJ is testing my Maths. I am not good with even simple Maths.

Isaac Asimov

I loved a saying by Isaac Asimov and it was "I do not fear computers but I fear the lack of them"


How many siblings do/did you have?3: One older brother, One Younger brother, and One older half sister I found out about 8yrs ago (she was the result of one of my fathers teenage indescretions and was put up for adoption)

Poor little child your sister was. I hate it that due to the mistakes of parents, children have to suffer. I know this is world but it boils me up, can't help myself.

I loved Nicholas Nickleby when I read it.


~ Who is your favourite author? Well, really I like too many to have just one favorite..Wodehouse, Agatha Christie, Alice Hoffman, Charles de Lint...lots more.

I love the writing style of Agatha Christie. My guesses are always wrong about the guilty one's in her novels. I completed a novel by her a few days ago. I suspected six people out of eight and the guilty one was that person who I could have never thought about...
Agatha Christie was very intelligent, indeed!

Thanks. By the way sometimes, my inquisitive nature leads me to a very rough road. If I don't get to know something, I feel very disturbed so if I would not have been inquisitive, it would have been better.

~ What is your date of birth and age? 7.18.92 or 18.7.92 respectively

RJ is testing my Maths. I am not good with even simple Maths. Sorry Pensy, I did not mean to confusilate you! It is just that some places in the world people say July 18th 1992, and some places they say 18. Juli 1992, so I was just trying to be creative!


I love the writing style of Agatha Christie. My guesses are always wrong about the guilty one's in her novels. I completed a novel by her a few days ago. I suspected six people out of eight and the guilty one was that person who I could have never thought about...
Agatha Christie was very intelligent, indeed! I agree with everyone that Agatha Christie is good. I've read "Murder on the Oriental express" or something, where there's around 10 suspects on the train and it turns out to be all of them. Very excellent work. I've also read 13 for luck, a collection of short stories. I should get something by her from the library soon...

Oh, did I mention Pensy that I like you because we are alike in many ways?


~ Which three things (materielistic) do you wish for the most? (1) lots of nice new red sable brushes :p
May I assume you are a painter higley? what medium? It is good to have a mix of synthetic and sable for watercolor

I love Agatha Christie, too! Somehow she always finds a way to surprise me. I have never once been even close in guessing an ending. I've read Murder on the Orient Express, too. It was quite good, but I had trouble remembering all the characters :D I've also read The Labors of Hercules, which is a collection of 12 mysteries that are each respectively connected to the twelve labors of Hercules. They weren't as good as the former, because, after a while, it can get quite repetitive. Some of the endings were kind of far-fetched, even for a mystery story. My favorite book of hers is And Then There Were None (aka Ten Little Indians). It's about a group of 10 people that are trapped on an island and are killed off one by one in accordance to a poem. Has anyone else read it?

Hi WhimsySA, I have read Allana's First Adventure by Tamora Pierce and liked it very much. Unfortunately, I was unable to find the other adventures.

I also like Harry Potter series. It is very interesting series. I can't wait for Book 7!

Kathy, Whimsy and all others, it is so wonderful to know more about you. Really, there were things which I did not know about you all, even some old members.

Hey, was it 4.50 Miles from Paddington? I have got it at home and I was reading its back story yesterday. No, it had been renamed or something so I'm sure of the exact wording.

love Agatha Christie, too! Somehow she always finds a way to surprise me. I have never once been even close in guessing an ending. I've read Murder on the Orient Express, too. It was quite good, but I had trouble remembering all the characters I've also read The Labors of Hercules, which is a collection of 12 mysteries that are each respectively connected to the twelve labors of Hercules.

I've read a collection of short stories which had at least one from Hercules labors. I don't remember which. It also had several Miss Marples. She seems to solve mysteries by just hearing about them real well.

-5/25/60 I'm an old man of 46.
-Indianapolis, IN USA
-I have one younger sister.
-Reading, politics, writing, sports, history, and the list goes on...
-Raymond Chandler, Sinclair Lewis, among others.
-By these authors, "The Big Sleep," and "Elmer Gantry," but there are many, many more.
-Love is passion, tempered by friendship, security, and mutual reliance. But those are only words; true definition is not possible for deep emotional feelings.
-I am in love. I have never been in love before, and this did not happen to me until I was 41 years old. Minor infatuations cannot be counted, and who can know if lightning ever strikes twice until it happens to them?
-I have few--maybe even no--friends outside of my relationship. I have many acquaintances, some more welcome than others.
-Life is an evolution in knowledge and belief. It can be wonderful or tragic, but it is never static. Each moment is but a snapshot in time, recognition of change comes slowly.
-Black
-Jeans and a t-shirt; comfort before vanity.
-A job that I don't despise; I can never be truly happy working for another. A larger collection of books that I have personally selected. I really can't think of anything else.
-Not even in the shower--I value my eardrums too much.
-I don't.
-I hit a fellow student in the head with one of my shoes at the age of 7, and after that highlight, things got bad. Several suspensions in school for fighting, jailed for public intox and drug use. I finally grew up at 40, though, and relative calm has reigned since then.
-I think you are an artistic and curious person, who has more than a touch of egotistic narcissism--but then, don't we all?

-I live in greater London
-I have a younger brother, aged eleven.
-My main interests are reading, writing, music and collecting records. :)
-My favourite author is Evelyn Waugh.
-My favourite book is probably Brideshead Revisited, but it keeps changing.
-I'm too young to try and define love...
-I've never loved anyone. Again, too young. Unless you count silly celebrity infatuations.
-I have a reasonable amount of friends.
-Again, I have no idea what life is.
-My favourite colour is red.
-I usually dress casually. In a band t-shirt and jeans. Occasionally in a skirt.
-There are no material things I have a burning desire for, but if I could have three things, it would probably be 1: my own computer, 2: a vinyl copy of The Velvet Underground & Nico, and 3: the whole of the Damned's back catalogue on vinyl.
-I don't sing. I'll hum, or mouth along, but never sing.
-See above.
-I tried to strangle a classmate at the age of four, after she threw a plastic brick at me. Other than that, I don't think I've been particuarly violent or naughty.
-I'm still relatively new here, so I don't know you very well. But you seem nice, and intelligent.

Thank you Pensive for this thread, it gives an insight not only about the members but also ourselves.

Another thing: though many of you people seem intellectually old, surprisingly I found most of you did not exceed even 24!! Pensive you are 13, oh dear. I thought you are older.


-in 1983.
-now in UK, but not for so long.
-i have lovely sisters and bros!
-reading comes first, surfing the internet, volunteer in old age houses( one of my biggest interest is talking to aged people, I used to read to my grandpa and hear from him, and after he passed away I directed my disturbance to others :D),shopping ,teaching, writing.
-Emily Bronte , I also like to read for Agatha Christie( I've read most of her well known novels, and the thought that no more new novels to read for her saddens me) ,Shaw , Abdulwahab Mwtawa' and so many others .
-Gaskell's Mary Barton.
- when you feel the world is different ,your concerns are shifted, your heart speaks new tales and you are not what you used to be.
-dunno exactly!! Maybe the coming days will reveal that it was not love.
-yes I do, but the problem is when you have lots of them ,you can hardly know your real ones.
- Life is a short lasting journey, so please the one you love and do good to people.
-Black, dark green, beige and flashy blue.
-hautecouture in certain occasions, skirts, concentrate on casual and elegant wearings.
- I used to sing to friends but now I'm more aware of my voice lol.
- I was not naughty, I was and still a quiet and peaceful and easy to surrender person.
-kisses for you Pensive and for your brilliant and friendly character:)

Hey, Penzy, I always thought that I could guess, quite accurately, the age and sex (and a few other things) of a writer from his/her writing. And I have done so quite successfully in case of many of the posters on Lit-Net and even in case of journalists whose articles I read in the newspapers. But in your case, I was not even close. Initially I thought that you were a jobless old man. I got goose bumps when I found out, here, that you are merely 13. Incredible! You are so good at engaging people in a conversation and you have such refined and delightful way of interacting with others. Truly admirable in a 13 year old. But I still can’t bring myself to believe that you are just ………….

~ What is your date of birth and age? 29th september 1990 (I'm 16)
~ Where do you live right now? A tiny litte village in the middle of nowhere in the Midlands (England)
~ How many siblings do/did you have? 5 (4 older brothers and one foster-sister - only me left at home now though!)
~ What are your interests? I love reading and writing, walking, running, skiing, sitting on the bridge and contemplating the meaning of life, playing the piano, looking after my garden (my roses are my favourite plants - see my avatar)
~ Who is your favourite author? I have too many - probably Shakespeare (technically a playwright but whatever) and Virgil are the two I most admire for the way that they construct language so beautifully
~ Which is your favourite book? Don't ask me that!!! I have over 100 books on my top shelf (where I keep all the books that I reread lots - they are a bit squished). They are mostly fantasy, but my tastes are changing somewhat - I like a lot of Classics, but am not too mad on Jane Austen.
~ How do you define love? Knowing that you would do anything for that person and being able to trust that they would do the same for you.
~ Did you ever love someone? Not romantically - am a bit young for the 'true love' thing jsut yet. But I love my family, and feel quite maternal over my youngest nephews and nieces, because their mother has just left them.
~ Do you have a lot of friends? To be popular at my school you have to be sporty and not care about your grades. I'm not like that. But I do have quite a lot of friends; I'm getting more now that I'm in 6th form, and the friends I have are good friends.
~ What do you think life is? Being able to feel.
~ Which is your favourite colour? Lilac
~ What type of dress do you like to wear? At home I just dress for practicality, but I like wearing skirts and dresses and feeling pretty when I go out into town or with my friends.
~ Which three things (materielistic) do you wish for the most? More books, a new car (our old one was written off in an acciden in December), something that will help me learn Swahili... but there are other, non-material things that I'd rather have
~ Can you sing really? What do you think and what does your friends think?
NO. They keep trying to get me to go to choral society with them, but I refuse. Well, I'm not the worst singer in the world, but my main problem is tahtI don't feel confident enough to sing in front of people.
~ Which song do you like to sing now and then? Whichever song is in my head at the time.
~ Were you a naughty child in your childhood? Not really. I was a bit of a goody-two-shoes.
~ What do you think about me? aww!! I don't relly know you but you seem very nice, and bright. You seem profound... you should join the League of the Fly (a HUGE comliment)

~ Were you a naughty child in your childhood? I was a rebel. Always climbing on the tables and countertops, from what my mom says... :blush:
