And a lurker emerges from the woodwork...

[dreamwaffles.livejournal.com]

Hello, everybody!  I realize that none of you will have any idea who I am, but I've been lurking here since January.  I have not posted even once, but today I finally caved and made a livejournal for myself.

So...hello!  Call me dreamwaffles.  To give you a bit of background, I fell in love with J&W when I started reading it last winter, and started slashing about five minutes into the first episode of it I watched.  I'm already a longtime Holmes/Watson slasher and a House fan, (yes I ship House/Wilson) so it wasn't like donning the slash goggles for this was hard or anything.  :)

I believe I squeed rather embarrassingly when I first found this community.  I spent the next few days combing feverishly through every single fic archived here and at frenchowlssayqui.  And since then, I've been lurking, and never posting...

Other miscalleneous items: I do write fic, though I haven't posted any to my livejournal considering I made it about fifteen minutes ago.  I check indeedsir every single day, right after I check Neil Gaiman's blog.  I've got a few ideas for some J/W, but I'm nervous about my Bertie-voice.  My current pet project, while I learn to deal with Bertie's idiosyncracies, is a Hitchhiker's Guide to Wodehouse.  I've got one for men and one for women.  I'm also working on a pamphlet for the new Drones member, though I may combine that with the HHG2W.

I don't have anything more to say, so...tinkerty-tonk, then!

Hello there and welcome!

started slashing about five minutes into the first episode of it I watched

The slashiness practically leaps off the screen, doesn't it? I had never considered it before when I first began watching the show some years ago, but boy do I see it now!

Your fic ideas sound interesting, especially that guide for new Drones members. I'll be looking forward to it!

Eee, my first reply!

A moment, please:

YAY! -jumps up and down-

-cough- I'm done now. That's the first reply anyone's ever given me!

And I'm very happy that at least one person thinks my ideas are interesting. I also have a fic actually involving Bertie in the works, but it's slow going because I'm not confident in Bertie-voice yet. I'll get to work on the other ones, though!

Re: Eee, my first reply!

Good luck with that! :) I'm not a writer myself, so I can only imagine how difficult it is to do Bertie's voice.

Neil Gaiman hugged me yesterday. Of his own volition. It is for this reason that I am unable to speak coherently on any subject after reading or hearing his name. But I'm sure I'd welcome you to this place if I had my wits about me at all.

I know exactly how you feel, oddly enough! Because...on my sixteenth birthday, I went to hear him talk about Anansi Boys. When I went to get my book signed, I told him it was my birthday, and he hugged me and kissed me on the cheek. Hope you regain your wits soon!

Tomorrow's my birthday, actually. And it'll be two years to the day since that happened. -sigh-

Waffles unite, then, I suppose? :)

dude. Hitchhiker's Guide to Wodehouse? WHAT A COOL IDEA. I APPROVE.

er.. yes! Welcome to the indeedsir community, from one lurker to another. :3

[dreamwaffles.livejournal.com]

Very glad you approve! I'll pull it out of my notebook and actually, y'know, type it up at some point now.

Thirding the potential awesomeness of The Hitchhiker's Guide to Wodehouse. Also much love to your various listed fandoms/pairings. Welcome!

[margi-lynn.livejournal.com]

Your fandoms read like mine. Great minds and all I suppose? *g*

Anyway, Hitchhiker's Guide to Wodehouse?? Sign me up!

It's great to see all these lurkers coming out of the woodwork. Even if you can't manage to contribute fic or art, you can still chat and make friends! yay!

I love talking to people who like slash - so few and far between in RL.

Hope to see you at the fic challenge tomorrow! *grins*

Welcome to the community!

[wistful-shadow.livejournal.com]

lol, it seems all us lurkers are finally giving in to the siren call of LJ at the moment. You are not alone! And we share the same fandom pairings, which shows you have good taste, lol. Welcome to the community. :D

And personnally I like the Drones Pamphlet idea. I love the Drones.

Hitchhiker's Guide to Wodehouse?!?!

*ded*

Ummmm. Hiiiiii. If you ever happen to be in need of a beta...I am so there. (And not just because I'd want to read it first. What? Who said that? What a horrible thing to say!)
