  • About The Princess  
  • I am Princess Yaffa, aka Yoli.
    		•
  • I am 51 yrs. old (though I was 30 when I was born). I live in the lovely Pacific Northwest.
  • My favorite part of life is humor. I fall down the stairs in front of my friends, and they find me laughing myself silly. Yes, I can laugh at myself; there's plenty to laugh about.
    		•
  • My obsessions are (great to greatest) singing (in & out of the shower) & writing. I love fantasy/sci-fi/supernatural. I'm currently writing supernatural-fantasy novel series. I also do intermediate Israeli dancing.
    		•
  • My others likes & interests: reading, COFFEE, laughing, pink (the color), spiders, snakes, biology, virology (thanks a junior high teacher and the author Richard Preston), astronomy, Judaism, Israeli folk & modern dancing, blogging, blog-hopping, forums, surfing the net, RPGing, dabbling with graphics design.
    		•
  • Authors: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes stories & The Lost World), James Herriot (tales of an English veterinary), Jane Austen, Jules Verne, Robert Louis Stevenson, Patrick McManus (outdoor humorist), Richard Preston (biological thrillers), Kay Hooper, Dean Koontz, and, yes, I like Frank Peretti's supernatural thrillers.
    		•
  • Music: I have a fairly broad taste in music. As long as it isn't too harsh or something.
    		•
  • Movies: I like the old classics (with John Wayne, Bing Crosby, Deanna Durbin, Eleanor Powell): The Longest Day, Singing in the Rain, Journey to the Center of the Earth, Midnight, etc. Of newer movies: The Italian Job (rules!), The Princess Bride, Phantom of the Opera, Timeline, Serenity, V for Vendetta, Die Hard (all of them), Chronicles of Narnia, Pirates of the Caribbean I, Pride and Prejudice, Stardust, (I'll think of more).
