Name: Sarah
Age: 20
Gender: Female

Where I live: Near San Francisco, CA

How long have I been a Froudian?: Since I was born practically. The Labyrinth came out the year I was born, so I've loved it ever since I could watch it. I believe it was my brother that was into The Dark Crystal and The Labyrinth before me so I learned from him. I've been lurking around the forum for about...gosh...maybe 4 years now and I love it!

Adding a new category...
Have you met any of the Frouds?: I met Brian back in 7th grade when he was here for a book signing. My mom drove me all the way to the bookshop and even asked Brian some questions. I was quite proud of her.

I am a bad person that still has a package sitting on the table waiting to be mailed to you..... sorry!

Female

I'm currently living in a small town in Northern California.

I'm pretty new to the Froudian thing..only been aware of them for about ten years now, a friend gave me one of the books and it was all downhill from there.

Never met any of the Frouds.

I feel pangs of guit when I stay away from this board for too long, even tho I don't post much anymore...it's good to know/connect with "kindred spirits".
I'm glad you are out there!

*hugs all around*

hmm and No one...I didn't realise you even had my address to send me anything (just kidding..couldn't resist that!) I'm always open to recieving random surprises and gifts tho.

I'm 23, I've been hanging out at this forum for maybe 3 years? It could be longer, I've lost track.
Female.

I'm Canadian, but I'm lving in Shanghai at the moment.

I've always loved faeries and Labyrinth, (I love the Dark Crystal now, but when i saw it as a kid, it gave me nightmares!) but i didn't know about Brian Froud until I got Lady Cottington, 7 or 8 years ago.

I have never met any of the frouds... just not geographically possible for me as yet.

Hiya No One Particular,

You are not bad at all my friend . Good to see you. I had a christmas card for you too but it didn't get passed my desk . It was a tacky Aussie one. It had a Koala on the front wearing a santa hat or something like that. There is always next year right?

I will email soon

Many, many Blessings

How long have I been a Froudian?: I loved "The Dark Crystal" as a child, but never knew of Froud. I discovered Brian when I was 15 or 16. I immediately fell in love with his artwork, and began believing in faeries. His artwork, along with Wendys has been so influental to my artwork now. I dont know what I would be doing if I didn't stumble upon "Good Faeries Bad Faeries" one day in the art section. ;)

Nice to see some familiar names here! I used to be known as Willowsmum, because I have a little Willow faery who is four now! FOUR! Big girl. She had a lovely birthday party, and she went as peter pan, I went as Tinker Bell.

Anyhoo, these days I am mostly creating Tarot- one that is complete, The Tarot of the Sidhe, and two in progress, the Never tarot and the Transparent Tarot.

I'm engaged to a new love- we are having a Faery wedding next May, and are hoping to commision Brian and Wendy to make some masks for us!

I also sing with my other half in a band called Crocodile thong. :)

Love and Blessings,

Em xx

Been a fan of Brian's since Labyrinth (was too scared by Dark Crystal as a kid). Didn't know Brian and Wendy were involved with Labyrinth until I found the Faeries books by Brian and was so in love with the art so I looked for more! That was about 8-9 years ago? Looking forward to more Froud books that show us trolls, goblins, and other faeish creatures rather than faeries! Don't get me wrong, I love the faeries- I just love the Froud's pixies, trolls and goblins I think even more

Name: Jessica
Age:19
Location: A suburb just off the island of Montreal, Canada

Been a fan of Froud since: My best friend discovered Good Faeries/Bad Faeries in high school and showed it to me. We've been collecting Froud books ever since. She was also appalled that I had never seen Labyrinth or The Dark Crystal, and made sure I watched them. She used to hang around the site, too, but I don't know if anyone remembers her... she was known as Kelpie Moon Priestess, I think.
I've been a member since we discovered Froud had a website... but I haven't been around much. I'd actually like to change my name, but I'm not going to because I'd like to avoid confusion.

I have been a Froudian since I was fifteen when I first ran across the FAERIES book in Barnes & Noble (my dad got it for me after much begging at a used bookstore). I just knew it was real and I was hooked. I officially joined the website...oh what was that, I wrote down the date...August 23,2003 I think. I am a recent Labyrinth convert as of two years ago as well. (for the more mature audience, go to http://s11.invisionfree.com/The__Oubliette. I'm Tink there as well. Three cheers for the Laby smilies!)

Hi there!
My name is Colleen and I've been a serious Froud Fan since The Dark Crystal first came out. I was a terrible teen then, and my mom took me to the St. Marks Cinema in Greenwich Village, NYC. We both loved the movie so much that we turned around, bought another ticket, and saw it again.
I am a Navy Veteran, and my family is half Canadian , Half American. It seems that only the oldest girl (me) and the youngest sister were the only ones besides my mom who thought that they could brave the States. Glad to be here, glad my kids are here.
I live in Gilford, New Hampshire now. I wanted my sons to be closer to the Faery Wilds. I was a single mom, well...I still am, it's just that they're all grown up now. (17 and 20)
I've been a part of this type of world for so long, I have even named my first born son Forrester Drake. (Keeper of the Forest Dragon)I figured someone had to protect those poor little guys!
My favorite Froud Faery is a dark faery named Leanan Sidhe. Not all dark things are bad!
I'm a full time college student now, and unfortunately I'm one of those artsy types. I have my Associate's in Business Admin, and I'm in the process of getting my BA in Visual Communications.
Rocking On,
Colleen

Favorite Froud Book? Runes of Elfland

I became a Froudian after taking a keen interest in Jim Henson's movie 'Labyrinth,' as well as 'The Dark Crystal.'

I am not as into Labyrinth as I once was, but it will always be an important influence in my love of all things fantasy-related.

As for personal info, I'm 31 (I'll be 32 in October), and live in Chickasaw, Alabama, which is a small town just outside of Mobile (which is where I'm originally from).

My biggest interest these days is Shakespeare's play, 'The Tempest,' as well as some of the bard's other comedies.

Favorite Froud Book? Faeries

Ohhh! Hey everyonr! It's so nice to see some old names again! I've mainly been lurking but haven't been here in a while due to personal issues! But getting back on track...Really need to start one of the old threads again. Let me think and I'll see you on Saturday!

How long I've been a Froudian?: I have been a Froudian since i was teeny but never new it! The Dark Crystal and The Labyrinth were my 100% fav films! I have always been a lover of faeries and so on but on the down low but now i don't care and all the people i love know.

Happy May 8th everyone.

I'm Libra, 25, from Yorkshire (Huddersfield) England.

Dark Crystal is my all-time favourite film and I've been a fan since I first saw it at 8 years old.

One day I hope to have all my artwork displayed on a website. I'm curently making a film with my bro, which stars our own handmade puppets.

My real name is Jesse Phillips
Age: 22
Gender: Male

Where I live: Currently in the mountains of Colorado but I'll be moving to the flatlands soon too much commuting.

How long have I been a Froudian: Fell I just joined the site today but I'd say since I was about 4, pretty much as soon as I was a coherent enough human being to know what I liked. I grew up on the Dark Crystal and the Labyrinth.


Also check out my website it's my personal artwork.
http://www.reversenorm.com

I forgot to mention I was male. If it matters.

Nice art work Jesse. I particularly like the black and white drawings and the Fire Elemental picture.

You remind me of me, but you have more work and you're more experienced with CG art. Good luck with your career.

Jesse, your stuff is just unbelievably good! Where in Colorado? I'm more metro-Denver area.

I'm currently working the the Denver metro area, some freelance work down town, and I also work at this place out toward aurora. The house I most frequently stay at is up in the mountains on highway 119.

Anyway e-mail me, so our conversation doesn't take up the "who we all are" post.

I do a lot of freelance. I am an artist and do music.. typical artsy type :) I live in NYC, East Village. I rescue animals and birds when they need me. I am doing a "Happy" site to help that.

Being of Irish descent, I have been interested in and known about Faeries since childhood. I love Brian Frouds' work as well as Wendy Frouds'. I am a huge fan of other faery artists as well...who isn't??!!!!!??? Guess I'm just a lil' uncertain as to whether or not it's appropiate to mention them...yay or nay? Anyone???

Well, I guess that's about it for now...looking forward to getting to y'all!
