Welcome to the Board! Have some chocolate, won't you?

I'm feeling lazy, so just take a Box of Infinity!

Warning! Box may contain links to Legendary Badfics. Open with caution.

Welcome to the Asylum PPC.

I notice you like Tad Williams, which books? I only ask because I personally find his stuff quite variable, I think The War of the Flowers is brilliant, Otherland and Shadowmarch are both good, but I just couldn't get into the Memory, Sorrow and Thorn stuff.

As a welcoming gift, have this Generic Sword, useful for defending yourself in virtually any fantasy setting.

Welcome to the Board! Have some of my hydrophobic water to commemorate the event. Also check out our fine line of hydrophobic fish!

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII! *glomps*

*steps away sheepishly* Er, pardon me. I've only been here a few days, but the crazy's already rubbing off on me. Let me start over. Welcome!

Doctor Who fan? I am okay with this! In that case, have a gently-used sonic screwdriver as a welcome present! Careful, it tends to do funny things if placed too close to your computer. Use it as a bookmark, if nothing else.

Also, the part about being a fantasy geek makes me happy, too. =D

I'm female, sixteen and a complete fantasy nerd/geek. I am a fan of Discworld, Tad Williams, Tamora Pierce, George R R Martin, J V Jones, Joe Abercrombie, Katherine Kerr and way too many others to name. Books are my main interest and I have an annoying memory which only remembers pointless trivia. I discovered fanfiction a few years back and loved the idea. I wrote, but I was too shy to share. This was a good thing. After a while I realised there was some awful, awful writing out there and I wanted to do something about it. When I discovered the PPC I decided I would research its background then introduce myself. So here I am.

Welcome to the PPC Board, sanity and nails optional. Please tell me more about yourself so that I can rejoice in your existence properly and so that I give you a wonderful gift pertaining to your likes/interests.

Greetings, new friend! Welcome to the group!

There are some useful and highly recommended links at the top of the Board, up ^ there. You'll especially want to read over the Constitution! Our wiki is an excellent source of information for the inquisitive mind. Finally, the chat is a place to encounter wild PPCers in their native habitat. Not to worry! Most of them only bite a little, and only if you don't share your chocolate!

I shall also link you to Jay and Acacia's Original Series, the fic that got us all started out! If you haven't had a chance to read it yet, I highly recommend it! It is found here:

We're currently trying to revitalize an old Big Sibling program wherein new members can turn to someone who's been around longer for learning the ropes. We don't quite have the new model organized yet, but in the meantime, feel free to use me as a surrogate Big Sib! If you're having trouble finding anything on our Wiki, I can be reached through email at keyoflit(at)yahoo(dot)com (with symbols standing in in the obvious places) or through AIM, which stupidly also uses my email because I am incompetent at setting those programs up. You're also welcome to ask questions right here in this thread.

So, tell us a bit about yourself! What fandoms are you into? Are you primarily a reader or a writer? What sort of story do you prefer, in either case?

You have our permission to introduce yourself. ;) Me, I'm Huinesoron (or hS, or various misspellings of those two), and I've been around here a loooong time. I'm a Lord of the Rings fanatic (still!), and even occasionally write things in the fandom, but for the most part my fanfic these days tends to be PPC-related.

And what about you? How'd you find us? Do you read or write fanfic - or both? What fandoms are you 'into' (as you young'uns do say)? How much PPC-fic have you seen - because there's a lot out there.
