1. How did you find GHF/TW, and when did you join?
I played lots of SIM games in the past, started when I was 13. Owned a few that didn't go very far
And drifted off from them. Got around to missing them, so I poked around, and this was one of the only old school types I found, everything is automated like Horseland (ick) and the like. I wanted to work with my own horses myself on boards and have pictures and enter things. So I joined when it was May of Y13, with four creates, and started racing them June Y13. Been here ever since, taking a bit of a break with racing this season, but I'm still around 
And now I'm rambling so I'll shut up now.
2. How did you get your username, is there any specific meaning attached to it?
Isabelle is the go-to pseudonym I've used for years. I wish it was my name. I'd change it to that, but my mom would probably die. I'm an only child who never left home She is . . . attached. We'll leave it at that.
3. What is your favorite thing about GHF/TW?
That it's old school. You do the work yourself, you don't just click some buttons. You actually have to talk and work with people, not just use a system and have things cut and dry. You can negotiate or ask (or beg and plead) for reserves or fuzzy foals. And we do our own results, it's not random or based on some weird stat system that only the evilish game master can understand and benefit from.
4. Describe yourself, how tall are you? What color are your eyes and hair? What is your clothing style? What month and day is your birthday? What is your astrological sign? Chinese animal?
I am 5' 8 and 1/2". Yep. That specific. Deal with it. I have weird hair, when I was little I was platinum blonde, and now it's more a dirty blonde to light brown, and usually it lightens as it goes downward. Never colored it, but been mistaken for it. It's nearly halfway down my back, I'm trying to grow it. MOVING ON. My eyes are unclear. I personally think they're a sort of green, but others insist they're blue. I'm not sure who I believe. I tend to go for pants and shirts, nothing fancy. I was born on May 27, I am a Gemini (yes I have two personalities . . . -shifty eyes- ) and I am a tiger. Hear me roar. Rawr!
5. Do you have a mantra/saying/adage?
Hear me roar. Rawr! (You may have seen this frequently in cboxes. It is for cboxes only. Cuz I'm special that way.)
6. What are your favorite activities?
Writing, reading, crosswords/word finds, movies, music, MY FUZZY BUNNY!, playing computer games, and crocheting.
7. Who is your favorite famous horse trainer?
