To start off, my name is Hazel and I'm from Connecticut, USA. I am the mother of two beautiful children, a five year old little girl named Analiya and a two month old baby boy named Jaccson. I love to read, I always have ever since I discovered the genre of fantasy, sci-fi and paranormal. I began a spiritual path in 2020 and continue to explore paganism. Currently I am studying the Wiccan religion. I recently went back to school for my bachelor's degree for psychology. I am in my second year at the university of Arizona global campus. Although it is somewhat difficult to juggle going back to school and being a new mom again, I found that my children are my biggest motivation. I am blessed to have a huge support in my son's father as he helps me as much as as he can. I am in a bit of an odd situation. Jaccson (my two month old) and I are currently at a mother and child recovery program. I have struggled with addiction for about 15 years on and off. Thankfully, I have been blessed to find recovery again and am able to be there for my children. I use reading as a coping skill when I feel overwhelmed. Especially with the wheel of time series, I am transported into a different world when I read. I love it! My oldest daughter is with her paternal grandparents as the program only allows children under the age of 5. We are waiting for supportive housing, where they will help us pay our rent for one year. I am confident in myself that I can achieve whatever I put my mind too. Also, finding a community as this one will give extra support if I need it. Just doing a quick browse through the posts show me that this is a community with beautiful people and I am hoping to become a part of that.
Who is your favourite character in The Wheel of Time and why?
So far, I am only on book two, The Great Hunt. I found out about the series after Amazon prime came out with the TV series. I must say that I like the books a whole lot better as there are so many differences. My favorite character is hard to say. Moraine is one of my favorites although she is hard to read and super unpredictable, she has a huge heart that she tries to hide. I think she cares greatly for Egwene because she sees herself in her. My second favorite character has to be Perrin or Nyneave. I can't choose between the two. Perrin shows strength but doesn't gloat about it. He is reserved and thinks things through before acting. Nyneave's strength and resolve is like steel. I can't wait to see how her character develops throughout the series. My least favorite character is Mat. Idk why but he rubs me the wrong way.
How did you find TarValon.Net?
I found TarValon.Net when I was doing a Google search about the character Selene. Google brought me to the Tar Valon library.
What do you do? (student? job? hobbies?)
I am a part-time student and a full-time mom. I am waiting until I leave the mother and child program and go to a transitional house in Middletown to be able to start working. I have a lot of job experience as I usually get waitressing or secretary jobs but my most recent job was working at a laundromat. I love to learn that is my favorite hobby. My other hobbies are of course reading, astrology, crystal healing, meditation, the lunar cycles, the seven charkas, and I'm also learning about the Goddess Hekate.
Where are you from? What languages to you speak?
I'm from the United States and I am born and raised in Connecticut. I never really traveled I've only been to Washington D.C., Vermont and New York city once. I speak English as my primary language and speak broken Spanish. I'm teaching my son American sign language and my daughter speaks Russian from her father's family.
What is your favourite book or author other than Robert Jordan and The Wheel of Time?
One of my other favorite authors is Jodi Piccoult. Her books are all amazing. One of my favorite series is the All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness. I also read a lot of self-help books and spiritual books. I am currently reading Keeping Her Keys and True Magic by Cyndi Brannen. Warrior Goddess Training and Warrior Goddess Training Companion Book by Heather Ash Amara
