Welcome to Slytheringrrl's Place

I've finally jumped on the blogging bandwagon. :-)

So, how to start? I am an avid knitter, reader, and coaster nut. Oh yes, and as you can probably tell, and Harry Potter fan. Well, to be specific, a Snape fan. (I love me some Alan Rickman, oh yes I do. I'm all about the bad boys. ;-)

I've started this blog for fun, and also so I can be eligible for secret pal-type exchanges that require blogs. If any of you know of ones starting soon, let me know.
