Bio"Though my soul may set in darkness it will rise in perfect light, I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night" - Sarah Williams
Having worked for a year I am now back in Lampeter doing an MA, but lj won't let me put Lampy down twice in my schools. Grr.
You'll either know me in person or through one of the forums/sites/comms I belong to. Feel free to friend me, but as all my recent entries are friends-only, drop me a comment saying where you found me and why you friended me otherwise I get all confused. :)
I am:
A mediaeval studies (history and literature) MA student
An unemployed field archaeologist, previously with AOC Archaeology, previously with MoLAS
An archaeology and mediaeval studies graduate
A bookworm
A folkie
A Tolkien fanatic belonging to The Plaza
A swordswoman of the level of Scholar belonging to Schola Gladiatoria
An archer belonging to CAC and UWL Archery
A musketeer with Vaughn's Regiment
An historic crafty person who does knitting, crochet, sewing, tablet weaving and hopefully lace-making
A Methodist (with a mediaeval bent)
A part-time amateur poet and writer
Genrerally confused
A dracophile
Teetotal
A chocoholic
Left-handed
A novice tarotist on AT
Insane (Honest! I've got a bit of paper from Finland to prove it...)
Someone who still likes to play in the alluvial deposits despite being nearly twenty-four
Wondering how many people will get that reference...
"Why do you see me and tip your head
With questions dark and wild
Why do I shiver through my backbone?
Because I know, cried the Ravenchild
Why do you call me with that tragic voice
Broken and defiled
Why does it strangle my heart's ease?
Because I feel, cried the Ravenchild
What are you whispering so quiet on my ear
Every once in a while
What are you showing so rare and sincere?
I am happy, cried the Ravenchild
What is this softness, surprising me
Gentle, warm and mild
What is this longing that catches my breath?
That's my heart, cried the Ravenchild"
