Hello, my name is Ashley and I'm in my late 20's. I first became interested in the Twilight Saga when my friends told me that I should check out the books (this was prior to the first film being released). I was about 25 at that time and at first, I thought it was just for teenagers. I love to read, and love the vampire genre, so I checked it out. I wanted to have at least read the first book before seeing the movie, and I'm glad I did. I didn't want the movies to influence the books and the way the characters appeared in my head. I've read the entire series at least a dozen times, and I've seen all of the movies that have been released thus far (I saw Twilight twice in the theater, New Moon once, and Eclipse three times). My favorite movie is Twilight, and my favorite book is Eclipse or Twilight.

My favorite characters are Carlisle and Alice. I also like the rest of the Cullen family, Charlie, Garrett the nomad, Leah, Seth, etc. I do not like Bella very much, though she became marginally better once she became a vampire. I like Bree, Diego, and Fred from SSL of Bree Tanner.

Last year, I went to a vampire themed Halloween party and dressed as Alice. It looked pretty good, if I do say so myself (even though Alice is supposed to be shorter than 5 feet and I'm almost 6 feet tall). I wore the grey/silver dress and black sweater outfit that she wore in the first movie. I'm so pale that I barely had to wear any makeup. I also like to write fan fiction from the perspective of Renesmee (though, I did find her character to be a bit too "perfect," sort of a Mary Sue). www.wattpad.com/user/NessieFanFic

My husband probably thinks I'm a little crazy because of my Twilight obsession, but he is a Star Wars geek, so let's just call it even.
