About Me

Edana A.: "Edana" means "fire" or "fiery" and is purportedly a latinized form of Irish Gaelic. I am a lively red-head who likes to defy the norms to a certain degree. I have long been interested in folklore and fantasy, especially that of Ireland, Scotland, and England. I like reading about the celts and Anglo-saxons, whether it is their own tales or their history. I especially like tales of battles and bravery that fill me with excitement and fire. I was an Irish dancer until I graduated highschool and I now enjoy swing. Some of my other interests are soccer, handicrafts without directions(I like to learn the technique and then use my creativity), reading, traveling, camping, and exploring the woods.
