Occasional lurker, first-time poster here.  I finally decided to sign up for a Dragonmount account so I can talk to other WoT fans (although you probably won't see me here very often).

 

I started reading WoT ten years ago after I spotted the series in the fantasy section of my hometown library.  To be honest, it wasn't love at first sight.  I read TEoTW and wasn't impressed by it, so I decided that I wasn't going to continue with the series.  Several months later, I was looking for another book to read; I got to thinking that TEoTW wasn't that bad and decided to give the series a second chance by reading TGH.  The rest is history....  :)

 

My favorite characters are the Forsaken, although I enjoy most of Mat's plotlines.

 

Out in the Brick-and-Mortar World, I work full-time to support myself while I continue searching for a job in my field.  I also own a cat and a fish, I love history, I do volunteer work, and my other favorite fantasy authors are Fred Saberhagen and Lloyd Alexander.
