- when, in your volleyball skill test, you pray to the Tamora Pierce gods and say, "Mithros give me strength, Goddess give me luck, Weiryn give me aim. So mote it be."
- when you pray to the Tamora Pierce gods during your volleyball skill test and you get full credit, even though you've failed half of your PE skill tests since the beginning of the year.
- when, during a jousting tournament with your friend, you dedicate that run to Kel and Peachblossom, and you actually win against the most violent person in school.
My sister did all of this. Seriously.

You nearly have a heart attack when someone jokingly tells you The Immortal are going out of print.

(saying stuff that pertains to me sorry if there are any repeats)
- your parents order you to stop reading and go play vidio games (how you wish her books were made into vidio games)
- you constantly talk to you dog hoping it understands
- when trying to get your horse to go you wish you had wild magic (well more than you normaly do)
- you name guys in stories and of the ones in the books
- you spend hours meditating trying to see the color of your gift
(( sweatdrop guilty of all of these and ones people have already posted))

Recent ones, sorry if any repeats:
- when you are picked to go vs. jonathan in TaeKwonDo (wah! strongest kid in the class) you go up there and suck it up because Alanna could beat him. (it worked to! Victory over the Red Belt! biggrin )
- You want help but notice that the colors of the robes in magic are slightly the same as the colors of the belts in martial arts (yellow - red - black)
- As you run barefoot down the street, you think of yourself as the Shang Gazelle, or Deer, or some other creature like that, and later wish you were Daine so you could turn into one.

-when you show your friends Tammy's books and seem confused if they don't like them.
-when your lying in bed you imagine you are in a different Realm, being Alanna, Daine, Kel, Aly, ect.
-When you have actually considering naming one of your kids verilidaine, alanna, numair, raoul, ect, then decide not to because they might not understand.
-when you HAVE to own one of your favorite series although you've read it a million times before and your parents ask you why.
-you stay up all night reading tammy's new book until your brain can't understand a word of it.
-You get yelled at by a teacher for reading your tamora pierce book in class when you should be doing algebra or english. then when they aren't looking start reading it again and hoping they won't notice you, then when they do take it away you scheme to get it back because you NEED to read it dammit!
-You find yourself wondering which character your most like, take the character quizzes, and go on about the books until your parents, friends, and teachers say "ENOUGH!" and even then you just can't help but talk about them.
Sorry if there are repeats.

go to geocites.com/tamorafans.Its a website for a guild on neopets but it has a obsessed list.A good one.My fave on there is:
60.You carry a sword around for 8 years and undergo painful exercises in your backyard every day. Finally, you lock yourself in your basement and pretend to experience great pain. When you emerge, you begin to carry around a garbage can lid with a design on it.

thayetsqueen 60.You carry a sword around for 8 years and undergo painful exercises in your backyard every day. Finally, you lock yourself in your basement and pretend to experience great pain. When you emerge, you begin to carry around a garbage can lid with a design on that's a good one. except, there is one problem. swords are illegal. you can only take them off your mantelpiece or wherever they are on one day, and then they must be locked in their scabbards. ...wooden ones are okay, though... xd sweatdrop

-You argue with your friends about which is the best cover art (I personally go for the japanese release of Woman Who Rides Like a Man)
-you own three paperback copies of each book two of which are so worn they are held together by duct tape, and are in fact in such bad repair that no donation would take them, but you don't have the heart to put them in the trash. The third is currently on it way to the same fate.

Knightly_Lady 24. You own every one of Tammy's books, but you plan on getting them again in hardback to preserve them forever and lessen any damage they might get on the numerous trips you take them on. I'm going to change the titile to "You know you're obsessed with Tamora Pierce when..." so that we can include Emelan and such. I would also change the poll, but too many people have already voted. My dream is to not only get all the books in hard cover, but get all the possible ones with the same illustrator, the good old one, not the way the covers are now. Rajiko 33. You've read the books so many times your parents hide them from you. 34. Force the books upon friends to read even though they hate reading. 35. You stare at black opal jewlery in catalogs have a burning desire to buy it all. 36. You stare at trees and wonder if they used to be people. 37. When faced with a problem you sit and ponder what would Alanna do? Or Kel, or Dom, or.....anyone. Sadly I'm guilty of all of those. emo sweatdrop I will never look at trees the same way again....
