Mine's late! I've been kinda clammed up here and just reading whatever
gets posted (and therefore emailed to me). Normally I'm not so quiet
but I've been massively busy since I joined. My name is Ashley, better
known as Ash or Kiya to my friends, and the reason I want to learn
Norse is because of my religion (a mishmash of Wicca and Asatru, oh
yes I'm one of those). I printed up the lessons and am reading all the
stories I can get my hands on when I actually have time and so far I
love it. ^_^

Oh yeah, and if someone could tell me how some of the wonky characters
you encounter in Norse and other languages like it are pronounced (I
know the one that looks like a P but sounds like 'th' but the others
are fairly mysterious), I would be very very grateful.

Thanks!,
Ash / Kiya
