Well hello there I guess... I'm goldfeathers_hq, I finally dug up a DVD set of Jeeves and Wooster in a back alley cornershop-ish dust collection so far away from any mainstream civilisation that I just spent two days relearning the language of the common man... and I must say I'm smitten! Ah I guess I enjoyed the exercise... leave it to us Dutchmen to stick a Jeeves and Wooster DVD in a place genuinely called Sexbeerum!

What else is there to say about me...
I love Jeeves and Wooster and Jooster,
I'm 16,
I'm Dutch,
I'm quite good at writing (which I must put like that because its the only thing I'm better than average at) and I have had this fic idea swerving around in my head for a week now but I'm deathly afraid of ever executing it because, and you must be aware of this already, you guys are extraordinary! And I... am me, I suppose, and I'm intimidated by your greatness and your understanding of the English language.

That's it.
Keep up the good work!

Do it.

This is a fairly small fandom. It needs all the love it can get. And I think part of the reason this community is so extraordinary is because everyone is so open to any expression of that love.

Welcome, comrade.

Welcome! And as to fic, give it a shot. You can always ask for a native English speaker for a beta to help out. You'll never know how it'll turn out until you try!

Hey, I say go for it with the fic idea - there's always people willing to beta or Brit-pick for you, if you ask. (No, this is not a shameless plea for more Jooster, whatever gave you that idea?)

And welcome to the community!

Welcome! I think you should write the story. A beta could help you with the English.

Welcome old fruit!

I say that this is your moment to choose whether or not to write, as I know, once you start, you can't stop. It's quite lovely, so I think you should go for it... I'm not a native English speaking person myself either, but there is many exellent betas here and no one is nasty so this is very good fandom.

I am btw waiting your fic already too.

I feel your anxiety; I was terrified for weeks before daring to post my first Jeeves&Wooster fic - but there was only encouragement and praise to be had when i finally did ^^ English isn't my first language, either, but you could have fooled me with that entry!

WELCOME!

I'm ready to read and enjoy that fic you have in mind. *sits patiently*
