The Introduction Thread

I probably won't be able to craft a bumper-sticker saying "Keep Calm and Call Sigrun," but I'd be happy to keep the fan site lively however I can.

I feel like Mikkel would be the better option in that case

Welcome to the forum!

[Johannabelle]

Hello all! My real name is Johanna, Johannabelle is a nickname. I hail from the rainy west coast of the United States and I'm only fluent in English, for now. I attempted learning German a while ago, but it wasn't originally my idea, so it sort of faded away. Though I know tiny snippets, it's not really substantial enough to begin to understand anything.

I found aRTD a couple months ago when I was looking through landscapes on Deviantart. Minna had a beautiful drawing of the waterway in chapter 3 of aRTD and she said it was from her webcomic. I was pretty bored, so reading a webcomic seemed like a great idea, and it was! A Redtail's Dream was absolutely wonderful, and once I finished it I started on SSSS late June. Before I started reading, I was a little skeptical because I was not a huge fan of post-apocalyptic stuff, but I read it anyways. It was definitely worth it.

Mostly I like to draw, and I actually don't usually comment on anything online, so this is a rare appearance. Maybe I'll be more active here? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I've actually been stalking the forums here for about a month, and finally decided to make an account.

Also, if procrastination was an olympic sport, I'd be a multi gold medalist. I made this account last night and put off introducing myself until now. Not to mention I put off even joining the forums for a month. XD

Hi! Welcome! I was the same way, I never made comments on any internet things, and then I made a post here (although I had an account for almost a week before my first post) and now I have many many posts here

[Johannabelle]

Ah, well I've already gotten over the first step of coming out of my shell here. I aspire to have that many posts someday

Did you draw your avatar? I really really like it.

[Johannabelle]

I did! Just finished it a couple hours ago actually, drew it specifically for here. It could still probably be used for other places though.

Wow! If you ever get involved in the art community here (which I highly recommend) I would love to do an art trade with you

[Johannabelle]

I just might! It'll sure give me something to do. XD

I'm new to fan communities in general and completely new to online fan sites. I probably won't be able to craft a bumper-sticker saying "Keep Calm and Call Sigrun," but I'd be happy to keep the fan site lively however I can.

Piney is right -- "famous last words."

Like Everett, I was completely new to online fan sites before SSSS.  I kind of thought it was all "Twilight" and "Team Edward" and "Team Jacob" and nothing of interest to an ADULT.  Oh, how very wrong I was!   

Then Eich opened our Forum last Sept. 1, I signed up, and.... 2,500+ posts later, here I am, hopelessly devoted not just to SSSS but the Forum and all you crazy, wonderful, creative people.  They'll have to pry my cold, dead hands off the keys!

Famous last words

  I hope they are. Also, cookies, yay!

SSSS changes people. For the better, of course.

If you would've told me this time last year that I will eventually have very specific knowledge about the scandinavian countries and a strong desire to visit Iceland, I'd be like "what? pfffffft, NO."

and yet here we are :I

Thanks for the cookies, Piney! Also,

Iceland sounded cool before, now it's just eating at me like a rash.
