Have a pet cat. You may name her whatever you wish.

Don't feed it Sues. Generic Meat would do.

First off, have a big "NEWBIE!" t-shirt to wear around HQ. You'll be getting more gifts as people come here from the usual board.

Then, read The Original Series if you haven't already, then hang around, think about agents you'd like to write about once you can get permission, and have fun.

Here, have a whisk! It's excellent for Author!Wrait exorcisms. And omelettes.

I should let you know that, as this is a writing community, which does seek to mock and ridicule poor writing, we do have fairly high standards both in fanfic and posting. Read: punctuation and capitals appreciated!

Generally, a horde of members will descend on you with gifts comprehensible and otherwise, and someone provides the List Of Links, but we're all a bit distracted by the ypur invasion at the moment, so it might be a while. Meanwhile, take a look around, engage in discussions and/or silliness, and make yourself at home!

Oh-- and you can leave your sanity at the door. You won't be needing it here.

You might get more reception over on our main board. If you introduce yourself there you'll get a much bigger welcome more quickly than you have here.
