Subject: The interesting thing...

...is that some of the people you posted about are fanfiction authors whose names I recognize because I first read their stories years upon years ago, but was never completely sure if they were affiliated with the PPC or not. Finding out that they *were* is...I can't quite name the emotion, but it's a positive one. And the whole song was interesting to read through, too.

I'm going to add a couple Boarders:

Karen DuLay was thankfully active on the Board right around when I joined in 2013. I say 'thankfully' because she was very likely the first good friend I made here. We, uh, still haven't quite gotten the MCU OFU into publishable form, but that's okay: deciding to cowrite it led us to start communicating off the Board and went on into a whole lot of cowriting and enthusiastic plotting of stories (much of it non-PPC, hence the lack of posting). I don't know if she'll drop by the old Board before it closes, but it's my hope she'll eventually come check out the new one and maybe say hi :)

SeaTurtle is really just a great person overall, and I'm very glad we had the opportunity to become friends. I expect I'm not the only one who could tell you he's interesting to talk to and fun to write with. The Reader would have been very different without his DIA characters in the mix--Emiranlanoamar (the Guardsman), Naya, and Terabyte. I'm grateful on her behalf and on my own that those years of cowriting and chatting happened.

And I guess this is my self nudge to contact both of them more often this year, since I don't actually want to fall out of touch.
