Hello everybody!

I’m new here and excited to get started. I’m Shrike, a name I chose in homage to my favorite science fiction novel (meaningless internet points to anybody who knows the reference). I actually went through The Guide about 8 months ago but didn’t take the next step until just now. Before joining the forum today I went back through The Guide and both times I’ve done so I’ve been a Thornmouth. So I suppose that’s accurate!

In the physical world I’m a veterinarian by day and . . . also by night lately. When I actually have free time I love reading (of course) and board games. I’m looking forward to becoming more familiar with this universe!

Hi all- I’m Bee. I’m a floral designer and illustrator who loves raising snails and butterflies and collects bones and books. I play violin and cello, travel often, and one of my favorite pastimes is collecting stories and secrets from people I meet on my path through life.

I came across AG on the recommendation of a dear friend and was sorted into Weatherwatch.
I don’t know much about this community but I am very excited to get involved.

Hi there everyone! I’m currently reading TMP1, and the assessment placed me in Weatherwatch. I am a biomedical scientist (specializing in neuroscience - my username is a play on the type of cells I study :nerd_face:), but I am also a HUGE bookworm. I haven’t participated in a forum in about 15 years, but I am in love with the idea of readers shaping the narrative of this story, and I’m very excited to get involved!

Hello, I am back again? Is there a place where I can get caught up on almost a year of not being here?

Welcome back!

A fair bit has happened since…April?

Looks like the Search for Magiq picked up about a month after you were last here. Those particular topics have “Search for Magiq” in the title (and are numbered in order!).

Some of the more recent threads after those are labeled a bit differently, perfect time to work on that master list I’ve been meaning to take a stab at. :laurensmile:

Edit: and here’s the shiny new table of contents!

I guess I’m in the right place with this one, but there’s not much to say yet.

Hi—I’m catching up. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I pay the bills by being an attorney, but I also write fiction (mostly fantasy/sci-fi, some horror and romance, and some that blends pieces of that together). I ended up in Thornmouth, which makes a great deal of sense.

I have a pretty long background with shared narratives, by way if MUD/MUSH/MOO/MUX/whatever you want to call those things. I am proud to say that I have reportedly brought other people (whom I never met) to tears at least twice by writing a character’s death. I have always loved puzzles and riddles, and remember fondly Kit Williams’s books (Masquerade and The Bee on the Comb) among others.

I will be quiet for a while while I catch up. (And I intentionally rewrote that to use “while” twice, so I can ask whether you pronounce them differently in that sentence.)
