Time is a face on the water.
Hi All, I just stumbled upon this site yesterday. I've been rereading the series these past couple weeks (near the end of Wizard & Glass now), and I happened to be at the store when I stumbled upon a turtle-shaped car air freshener. I decided to buy it and hang it in my car. When my daughter saw it, she asked me if it had a name. I said "skoldpadda." After that I wanted to learn more about the word skoldpadda, so I googled it, and this site was the second hit. The rest, as they say, is ka.
Onto the questions:
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
Completely by accident. When I was a kid, I read Carrie. It freaked me out. Then I read Pet Sematary. That really creeped me out, so I stopped reading Stephen King. Then, about 15 years later, I decided to pick up a couple of his books. I blindly chose Eyes of the Dragon and The Gunslinger. I read Dragon first and loved it. But then I read The Gunslinger and was bowled over. I rushed to get The Drawing of the Three, and proceeded to read every Dark Tower book published at the time (up to Wizard & Glass) and every other book with tie-ins.
Who is your favorite character?
Roland Deschain of Gilead, son of Steven
What is your favorite book?
Probably The Waste Lands, but Drawing of the Three and Wolves of the Calla are close behind.
How old are you?
40.
Where are you from?
North Shore of Massachusetts, about a half hour north of Boston.
do you have a nickname?
People usually call me Nite with this handle. I came up with it in the late 90's when I joined "The Bronze", a Buffy the Vampire Slayer site. Nite Vizhun = Night Vision. *shrug
yeah, I agree, quite immature... this age lacks substance, I still remember my 40 - although vaguely...How old are you?
40.

Hi everyone,
Maerlyns_Rainbow is my name. I am not new to the site, I was a pretty active member several years ago. But college started and things got busy, if ya ken it. I recently starting re-reading TDT again for the third time and so of course I typed it into google and once again found this wonderful website. I am a stay at home mom now so I have easy access to a computer once again and thought it would be awesome to see how all my old friends are doing.
So...how is everyone?

Climbed to the Room at the Top this very day.
I just finished the series today and there's no doubt that these books will join LOTR and Pillars of the Earth on my yearly read-again list. Pumped to have found this site and want to be a part of its community. Say woot and thank ya, sai.
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
My brother-in-law made mention of it a few years ago and it always intrigued me until I made the dive and started reading a few months ago.
Who is your favorite charcter?
For all his flaws and sharp edges, it's got to be Roland Deschain.
What is your favorite book?
The Gunslinger. It feels so different from the others and although King grew as a writer by leaps and bounds as he went along, I still love the utter arrogance and wide open-ness that bleeds through the pages of the first installment.
How old are you?

Where are you from?
Natchez, Mississippi
do you have a nickname?
I do. It's Magoo. (Charming, I know.)
