What I've read...

Hello, I guess I should introduce myself.

I'm into a lot of things sci-fi and fantasy, too many to really list.

I also got back into World of Warcraft lately on a WotLK server. I had played BC-WotLK and ragequit in the early days of Cataclysm because I could never catch up to the gear requirements for raiding and people in dungeons were always trying to beat old speedrun records. On my current server, it's always the same patch forever.

I'm here because while I think I'm a decent writer, I could use some improvement. I've noticed that it's hard to get feedback if you're writing in a universe that serious reviewers have no interest in. I figure that since you concrit a lot and care about PPC stories being good, I should try my luck.

Huh! I hope that we can be of use with that reviewing thing!

Anyway, hi, I'm Twistey! I haven't been here too long, but am pretty active and try to help with anyone I can. I'm in too many fandoms and have too many original stories, but that's fine. I'm rather strong with evaluating characters based on bios and sometimes with writing itself.

Anyway, how about you? I guess I shouldn't get you started on listing fandoms, so I'll ask you some other questions: Any agent ideas? Any notable works of fanfic or original fic? What do you plan to do with your time here, aside from getting writing help? I'd love to know more! :)

As for your newbie gift, here, have an egg. It looks like a chicken egg, except it's the size of an ostrich's egg. (But it's chicken egg shaped.) Who knows what will hatch out of this?

It's nice to meet you! I hope you have a wonderful time here and welcome to the PPC!

Please accept this pot of black-hole coffee. Have you read the Original Series? The Constitution? What PPC spin-offs did you read?

And please, by all means, try to list some of the things you're into. that's never too much to be listed on.

Anyways, welcome. Hope you're here to stick around for a while.

I tried reading the original series once, but I prefer some spin-offs. I could guess at why the original wasn't to my taste, or I could try re-reading them and see if I can point to a worthwhile reason why. It could just be that a person pees farther when standing on the shoulders of giants.

I've read the constitution a while ago, I should re-read it.

I'll list my interests in another post.

I'll start keeping a list of what spin-offs I read, but there were a lot of them.

You'll be right at home here, sci-fi and fantasy (especially WoW) seems to be the PPC's bread and butter!

That sounds great! I'm looking forward to seeing you write, and as a gift, you get cookies and a Lich King themed blanket. Don't use that blanket for warmth though, somehow, it does the opposite.

Catch ya later, newbie.
