I might still have a few of my very early, handwritten scribbles somewhere. Possibly.

And here, I started writing with pen and paper... Then to a typewriter... Then DOS... Now MS Word... i really have a problem... lol. On a serious note, that's always good to hear, BW

Oh, gods, I had a Royal manual typewriter with a two-color ribbon. The Selectric was a step up!

At least we wordsmiths are living in relative luxury today. Remember when the IBM Selectric was the best thing out there?

Congrats, new drives have that implicit advantage in that you'll now have a backup to the old data.

I think so as well, and I've only recently been a part of the forums. I don't think I've ever seen a forum connected to a fiction archive anywhere but for AFF. It has a different feel to it that I quite enjoy.

Welcome! We’re an eclectic bunch, to be sure, but I think the forums add a dimension to AFF no other fiction archive can quite match.

Ooh! Yes! Literature is one of the most amazing forms of art! It is my world, my heart, my solace! I remember when I used to be mad over not being allowed to check out books that I had to wait until I was in an older grade for because I'd already read all the books in the school library I did have access to. I also grew up on Harry Potter and Percy Jackson and Charlie Bone and Fable Haven as favourites from fourth grade on up. The former two are well known, especially HP. The latter two, it's a bit harder to find fellow fans or even just others who know of the books. The latter two definitely are deserving of movie depictions of them, both very good reads.

I pretty much phoned it in in English class in elementary and high school. Like I was writing by then, but writing for fun and writing for school were two very separate things. But I dropped out and by the time I got to adult ed, I pwned that shit and learned to express my love for writing in essays as well.
I think everyone here loves to write and/or read. But there’s a special place in my good books for people who treat and love writing as an art in all facets. Not just the writing of it, but the sculpting of it: the alterations, the additions, the cuts.

I suppose I took to the written word strongly because of an innate part of me sensing the potential of words in and of themselves. I'm not the best at precision when speaking, so naturally I rely mostly on my writing. I prefer texting over calls for this reason unless I'm merely listening and saying very little. I take it you're best subject would be science?

Haha~ Grammar has always been my life and English throughout elementary, middle, and high school was always my best class. I absolutely love a well written sentence and I do my best to catch every err in my own writing to fix it as soon as humanly possible. I also have to force myself not to nitpick others writing as not to cause unintentional offence since a lot of people get too defensive about it. To me, wording is everything, so the written word is best for me over vocalisation because I feel the need to choose my words carefully to be as precise as possible. Spelling and punctuation, of course, go along with grammar for obvious reasons.

Oh, I always read the rules for any cyberspace I join! It's better to know how to avoid doing something you're not supposed to, even if you wouldn't do it in the first place. Besides, I say the rules count as reading material, so I'm happy to have a look(and not just mere skimming through, but genuinely reading it all).

Thanks. I'm already enjoying myself. Feel free to take a look at my archive profile for a bio/an About Me since I haven't set that up here just yet.

I’d rather hide, kinda makes me eligible for Hermits United, if I could stand a crowded cave, that is.

Smile, nod, and dead eyes. That’s my go-to response in the real world. Why, is that not friendly?
