About Jenn Young

The above picture is of Jenn.  As she so aptly put it, "Really."

She is learning Gaelic, and loves to surprise people with highly coherent outbursts of said language.  ("Tha an gille fluich!"  That means, 'the child is wet'.  I think.  Except not the 'I think' part.)

Her chosen Elvish name is Tinúviel, which means 'nightingale.'  (She's really into irony, okay?)

She plays the piano, and is currently serving as Mutual Pianist in her ward.  This means that she can often get away with no other part in opening exercises.

Her favorite movie is currently Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Extended Version), which won this honor by having lots of nice pictures of Boromir in it.  Two Towers is second place, though, as it has Faramir in it.

Her favorite books are the Almighty Trilogy (aka Lord of the Rings...) and Diane Duane's Young Wizards series.  She can't decide which is her most favorite, so kindly wait while she plays eeny-meeny-miny-mo... OK... (drumroll...) the choice landed on Young Wizards.  So that is officially her favorite series.

She listens to country music, despite the advice of her sweet and caring friends, who say in concerned tones, "Country music is evil!  I don't see how you can listen to that junk."  She would like to express her gratitude for this demonstration of their affection, and to reply, "I'll darn well listen to what I want to, and I don't care what you think."

She is currently working on a fantasy series she has decided to call The Hadrynian Chronicles.  (Which will consist of several books with fetchingly clichéd titles.)  She swears that she really will finish this series.  Honest.

(True pictures of Jenn, one of her holding her little brother [the mysterious green-sleeved arm belongs to her younger sis] and one of her in front of a Christmas tree.  Duh. )
