I like that you can tell whose on line and even where they are. And the profile, if people fill it out, tells you a little something - like where they live, etc. Also the avatar makes it nice to see how people look and it feels more like you know someone when you can put a face to their writings.
I'm a "reader" of fanfic, but I finally posted my first story yesterday. I've been around at IMDb first (yes both Dagi and I came over after the last troll attack) since early April and finally came here in June. I feel like a true Brokie now that I've written a story.
Your story will be even longer than mine and I thought mine was long. I have trouble condensing my writing. I actually did trim some of it out.
I have peeked a few times over at IMDb, but it seems to be so negative and that's why I like this board - so much friendlier and upbeat. Nobody comes here just to say that they don't like the film. But that's a whole other story in itself. Anyhow I'm glad to be here and glad to get to know you too.
Merrily

Talk to you soon honey.

How do people do it? ???
I spoke Dutch as a kid, but I've forgotten nearly all of it. I took Spanish in junior high school and flunked it. I took French in high school... another big red F. And I really tried too, but I failed them both. I'm just not very good at learning languages. I'd love to, but I can't seem to do it. The language never sinks in.
But I greatly admire those people who can do it. Speaking even 2 languages fluently is remarkable imo. :D
