Name: Trine Lise.
Age: 19 and still counting :)
Place of Living: Norway, about halfway up :P
Occupation: I'm a full-time student, majoring in English.

- What are your hobbys?
Well, my main hobby is probably reading. I love reading, especially fantasy related books. Harry Potter being the absolute favourite, of course. There is really something special about that series. I've never encountered anything like it, with characters and situation that reduce grown up (or relatively grown up anyway) people to squealing, fifteen-year-old fangirls. It's pure love <3 But anyway, enough about my HP obsession, I also like drawing, and then especially on the computer. Without my Photoshop and Wacom tablet (lovingly named Joshua :P) I am completely lost. Lesser hobbies also consist of writing and singing.

-How did you end up on Elftown?
I was first introduced to this wonderful place by [blondieee], who was a classmate of mine at the time. Sadly she has left since then :( I've stayed though, and I'm not about to leave any time soon. I really love this place. I tried staying away for a while, but it was simply impossible. Elftown is definitely addictive, and meeting all sorts of interesting people gives one hell of a high. I suppose the down-side comes when I fail my exams because I stayed up all night on ET when I should have been studying. Oh well :P (*cough*worth it*cough*)

-What do you like most about fantasy: writing, images, reading etc?
Oh, dear, what an impossible question to answer! I have no clue. Fantasy wouldn't be fantasy without a healthy mix of everything, I say.

-Questions about the content of the house:

*How were the graphics/pictures made?
I change my house pretty often, but graphics are usually taken from Elftown Graphics. I'm a great lover of EG. Sometimes I make them myself, though.

*Tell more about the poems on your house.
Poems? Well, I don't have many poems there at the moment, but it has happened, yes. If I post poems, they are always self written. Though, I sometimes have snippets of lyrics as well, but then the owner of said lyrics is always stated and/or very obvious.

*How often do you update it?
Whenever I feel like it. If I'm particularly happy with a house, I can keep it for weeks, but sometimes I feel rather fickle, and I change it twice a day for a while. It depends on my mood really. Woman's prerogative and all that :P

-What is it you do mostly on Elftown? (chat/build/wiki’s etc.)
Hmmm, I'd have to say chat :P I have aquired many good friends here over the years, and we talk both through messages and on wikis and in forums. I also make the odd wiki every now and then, of course, and I love joining contests, both official and otherwise :)

-Is there a particular thing you like about Elftown, such as a specific wiki?
Oh, there are definitely wikis I like, loads of them! To pick out one (read: a few) to showcase would be terribly difficult, but I will try. Lemme see... art-wise, my current favourite will have to be Boys of Nuthor, with artwork by [nathie]. Not only is it filled with incredible art, the art consists of yummie boys! Doesn't get much better than that :D (this is everyone's cue to worship [nathie] :3) Another wiki I definitely enjoy browsing through is Show your process. It is amazing to see how the artist you know and admire have improved over the years! It gives an amateur like myself hope for my own progress :P I suppose mentioning all the wikis I like would take too much time, but I still want to give a little place to one last page, namely Editing Assistance - Elftown. It's a really nice initiative, where people who are grammatically strong can aid others with their written work :)

-Is there a member who’s house you really like yourself? Why do you like that house?
I love [sequeena_rae]'s house :) It is always filled with beautiful photography, interesting wiki-pages and completely nonsensical quotes. It's awesome :P Of course, there are plenty other great houses as well! Mom's List of Homes you "MUST" Visit... mentions some, and then there's [Mom] herself, and and and and, well, everyone on my relations list! I have great taste in friends :P But yeah, too many great houses, too little space!

-Have any critique/comments/suggestions/admiration etc. on a specific Elftown matter?
Hmmm, no, I don't think so. Well, not the three first anyway. Admiration I have lots of! :P

-What is your message to all Elftowners?
Contribute! ;) Elftown needs people who help keep everything going, if only by joining contests. Official contests have been getting fewer and fewer entrants, which is something I am very much saddened by, as I love ET contests. So yeah, step up people and join in! There more you do, the more fun you'll have, promise :D

-Which 2 pictures of you can be used for featuring you on Mainstreet?
