Resource FanFic Orientation Guide - Newbies Check In Here! - Interview with a Moderator, Part Ace!

I'm in the same boat as Seremela. I've been around for almost a year now, but still feel pretty new. I guess I didn't start posting fanfic until last fall.

Name: SoA
Boards Most Posted On: Before the Saga almost exclusively
Types of Stories I Like To Read/Write: I write pretty much only KOTOR-era stuff, though I might branch out in the future. I'm an OC lover. I really don't like writing stories without OCs stuck into them.
Characters I Like To Read/ Write: OCs! I have a lot of fun with the Ebon Hawk crews, and I'd love to do some more with the KOTOR comics characters.
Why I'm Here: It's all DWH's fault. Seriously. She convinced me to play KOTOR, mentioned that she had a fanfic around it, and converted me over from a Sailor Moon OC writer (I still write that stuff too though).

 

Welcome aboard!

It took me ages not to feel 'new' anymore. I think I am through with that by now.

If you want to feel like a part of the party, go crash teh social thread. Just do it, repeatedly. Sooner or later they will talk to you.
I think.

Anotehr good way to become part of this place is cahllenges. You get to meet people and all that.

 

Thanks for the welcome, Jaya Solo and MrsLanna

I've browsed through this thread and it's really interesting. And yes, there's a Qui-Gon story thread, I'm So grateful for it, because I find it really hard to browse for stories on these boards, even after almost a year. But that thread is awesome to go through.

Still so very, very much to read

 

You can always look for Qui's name using lazy's link machine.

 

Thanks for the link MsLanna. The normal search machine can direct you to the oddest places on this board when you type something in

 

For fanfic, there's also lazy's magic search site which is really brilliant

 

Okay, since we both linked to the same site, I'd really like to know what the link machine really is.
I have been misguided for - years?

 

I missed that someone

The link machine is magic

Types of Stories I Like To Read/Write: I?m into KOTOR at the moment and, with the depth of material presented there, I don?t plan on leaving any time soon. I?ll occasionally write a piece set after the original trilogy, but it?s rare for me.
Characters I Like To Read/Write: Original characters, and the cast of the Knights of the Old Republic ?duology?.
Why I'm Here: I was just looking for a place to share my Star Wars fan fiction, and somehow I ended up here on JCF. Liked what I saw, and decided to try it out for a spin.

 

Name: TylaMoore, or Tyla, or Ty. It's all the same to me. ^^ Or for those that dare venture onto ff.net...Shadows of the Storm

Why I'm Here: I was growing tired of the limited interactivity on all the other sites I had found and then I found TFN! I lurked around for a bit before I decided "what the hey?" and joined. And now I'm here for all the awesome people and all the diffrent resources I've got here.
