Hello! My name on forums is typically Mercutio, but someone already took that one, so I am using my gamertag (of sorts) for my name on this forum. I know Iain Aschendale from a different forum, and I trust his judgment, so I'm going to try this one. I write mostly a cross between science fiction and fantasy, leaning more on the science fiction side. I used to write romance, and then got old and tired after the loss of a friend. I'm a bit timid about all this, so I hope I don't come across as rude or anything.
MERCUTIO!!!!! DOGBERRYYYYY!!!!!!!!! Boilerplate new member greeting: Welcome! I'm Iain, one of the mods here. If you haven't had a chance to yet, be sure to check out New Member Quick Start and Forum Rules, and don't be shy about contacting me or one of the other active mods (jannert and big soft moose at the moment) if you have any questions or problems. You'll need to have two weeks' membership, twenty posts (which include two constructive critiques of others' writing) before you can post in the Workshop for critique of your own work, but until then, feel free to poke around and jump into any one of the numerous discussions that are ongoing here. Those initial requirements will fly by. But anyway, this place is much bigger than FP was, but it's still a nice friendly place. There are a couple other refugees out there, not for me to point them out though. Wander around, jump in, start critiquing, all that and I think you'll fit in just as well here as you did there. Feel free to ask me or one of the other active mods (jannert and big soft moose) if you get stuck anywhere.
Ha ha. I have to say, that GIF is so me! Just get the job done, eh? Iain's already said it all, but another welcome from me.
Hi @Dogberry's Watch / Mercutio -- I don't think the mods here are allowed actually to stab anyone, but a few do mysteriously vanish... -- and welcome from me.
