Hello out there...
I hate to show up at new places without introducing myself, so....hi. I'm summerbutterflie. I'm new to the fandom in the writing sense. I spent a few years in the Pop-fic fandom, but retired do to the complete lack of integrity and the slashy-direction fandom writing took. It was a pleasant surprise to stumble in here one night on a quest for quality fic of the non-slash variety. Imagine my delight seeing writers who understand the concepts of grammar, sentence structure and the english language. AND a community that is supportive and leaves feedback beyond *thud*thatwashot. I'm hoping I can find a new home and some cool peeps here and learn a thing or two. |

Welcome, and make yourself at home!
One of the best things about this place is the option to sit back and watch the activity, or join in it yourself. Myself, I usually sit contentedly in my burrow to watch the action, and occasionally join in the fray if it suits me.
Getting ready to post any fiction?
Regards,

Favorites? I have a soft spot for Elves...I think its the ears. When I was little I loved Gandalf and Frodo. More in the hero-worship way than the crush way, though.
Am I getting ready to post fic? Funny you should ask...lol. My roommate and I have been playing around with a plotline involving Elves. Lots of original characters who aren't fully developed yet, but they're coming. It's a sort of epic-fairytale-romantic-action kind of thing with traces of a chinese fable thrown in for good measure. Man, do I sound like a Suethor or what? I promise its a bit more organized than that. |

I'm thinking maybe we should work up a newbie questionnaire:
name:
Years in Fandom:
Character/race preference:
Multiple Choice: "I am a Pervy _______ Fancier"
A) Elf (PEF)
B) Man (PMF)
C) Hobbit (PHF)
D) Dwarf (P F)
Wait ... didn't I start a thread like this once?

Well, the concept anyway ... and there are plenty of folks willing to help out those who don't, or have any other questions.
Welcome, Summerbutterflie; I'll look forward to more of you and some fic, too!

You forgot Pervy Orc/Uruk Fancier, Pervy Wizard Fancier, Pervy Nazgul Fancier, and Pervy Woman Fancier (for the men on the board). And even though the some of those sound icky do not think that there are none!
Welcome to the OSA.
You will soon realize that everyone is fun,
most of us are crazy CoughCoughMeCoughCough,
some of are perverted
while others are just plain odd (in a good way) .
You will also see that you can start an innocent thread on the forum board- say about a book or a movie and it soon turns into a smut fest. So we have fun on here and we always try to play nice.
As far as the writing goes, some of these writers are so incredible they should be doing this for a living. If I were you, I would find a writer you like, read all of their stories that interest you, review them (we are all review ho's), then PM them as ask them who they recommend as well. Usually if you like something by them, you like some that they like as well.
Have fun and be good. Never mind - just have fun!!!  _________________ Nagzul #2 - The Nazgul of Shmoove
