"Why Fairies?" About Sherry

It all started as a small child, with an avid interest in fairy tales, especially Peter Pan...

Sherry spent countless hours trying to fly like Peter, finding just the right hill to run/jump off, fully expecting to take off and soar into the sky! If that had happened, she would have been in BIG trouble with Mom, as she was not yet old enough to leave the security of our backyard!

In later childhood, Sherry and her best friend re-enacted fairy tales; Rapunzel was a favorite! They alternated playing the roles of Rapunzel and her Prince. Tying Sherry's mom's cast-off nylons end-to-end, (recreating Rapunzel's long, golden-blonde hair), Rapunzel sat on the top step of the basement stairs. "Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair, so that I may climb the golden stair."

Then, there were horses! Although Sherry didn't own one until adulthood, she rode when she could, and read every horse-themed book she could find. If she combined her obsession with flying, love of fantasy and horses, what would she have? Why, Pegasus, of course! Honorable mention would include Hippocampus (a sea-horse that pulled Poseidon's chariot), unicorns (horse-like creatures with magical powers) and Shadowfax (the horse ridden by Gandalf the White, in J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings), just to name a few!

"Why Fairies?" About Bill

Bill's interest in "fantasy" started with "Lord of the Rings". His obsession created a monster (so to speak), and he can enumerate "Lord of the Rings" trivia ad nauseam !

Bill has a lengthy background in website development and design,and a wicked sense of curiosity (which has caused a great deal of trouble at times). But this has served him well with the hours of research required to build this site! In fact, Bill is responsible for the creation of All-About-Fairies.com and its many facets.

So," Why Fairies", you ask? Why not?! We are so grateful that you, and so many others, have stopped in to see what we are about. It seems there is a natural curiosity about fairies and the many fantasy creatures we have discovered and continue to explore on this journey.

This website is now run by Mogsy who has a keen interest in the Fairy World and Fairy Gardens. She is also a craft artisan, and makes ornamental gnomes. Check out this cute little leprechaun!

Mogsy is looking forward to sharing all that's new in the World Of Fairies!
