Title: Uhh.... Hi?
Post by: J.R. on November 24, 2009, 07:07:20 PM
Uhhh.... Hi?

Here at Eimi's suggestion, while she putters through my first sona sheet, for Genaila, a Candidate at Dolphin Cove.

I'm JR, or Jenna, whichever you prefer, a 27 year old geek living in Baltimore, MD (yes, actually IN the city!), working at a private University and attending school part time to finally finish my degree. Writing is something I'm not great at, but I'm not horrible at either, and is fun and relaxing for that exact reason. My perfectionist tendencies don't apply! I used to lay claim to being laid-back, however I've since been convinced that I only put on a good show... I'm really a control freak and a have a problem with OCD. (Just kidding. Well, mostly kidding.)

As far as fandom, I've been out of the loop for some time, but I've written a range of characters in the past from male greenriders to an honest-to-goodness HAD, drudges and Hallmasters, even a crotchety, arthritic 90 turn old bronzerider. I have a tendency to create characters for anyone who says they have a gap that needs to be filled, rather than because a random character bunny decided to hop into my brain.

Sooo, that's the short version of me.

Hello!

Hello J.R and welcome. Now, why I am thinking of Dallas? ;)


It's always fun to have new members!  :sunny:

Um...  The Harper Hall has LOTS of gaps needing filling ;)

Welcome again JR!  I will get on her persona sheet tonight!

Hello there!  Glad to see you poke your head in.  Once your sona gets approved I love to write with you too!

Not til she writes with ME Cali.  She's mine! MINE!

Slow down people, she needs to get a character approved fisrt before any posting occurs.  Saves having to make too many changes later on ;)

Don't worry, we haven't started coposting, I've just sent her a "hello, my name is..." email. :)

Hello JR! Welcome to the fun and insanity!

I have the Weyrleader at DCW, plus a few other characters, and I would love to post with you as soon as your persona is approved.

Welcome welcome JR!!  Its been just a short time since we've had a brand new member so you will get jumped on!  Watch out for dramatic storylines and everyone needing a persona... LOL...

WELCOME.  


My definition of Triad :)
"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

I'm a bit late in saying hi but anyway. Welcome to the craziness. I only have three sonas at the moment and none at DCW but I've got plenty of ideas for you if you'd ever like to make one. :)

Nice to meetcha. Ever been to Charm City Cakes? I have a crush on Duff-a tiny one-okay a big one. *sigh* Something about a man and cake...

I've never been to Maryland but I'd like to someday especially to see Annapolis (Navy nerd here).

Welllll, things got a little crazy and I never got started with Genaila, so here I am back again with an adopted greenrider, Roana, at RBW. Blame Erin for this, LOL.

And I know I'm ages late, Chelle, but would you seriously hate me if I told you I can throw a stone from my office and hit Charm City Cakes? It's on the opposite corner from my building. :)

Hey, I've got two over at RBW, if you need a co-poster!  :cheers:

Hi again JR! I 'll be glad to do some coposts with you. :)  I have Briata and J'ren at RBW!

Welcome BACK JR !! We are glad to have you (Thank you Erin LOL).  

Time for craziness!!!  We have an awesome group of newer members ... ::gives them all love::: and an awesome group of older members, so you'll fit right in!

I'll post with you, I have a brownrider at RBW, R'yin.  And the Headwoman :)

Welcome...back. I guess! I wasn't here when you were before, but nice to meet you!!

I'd be happy to write with you, but right now I have not actual Personas at RBW, but I can NPC one for you or you can stop by the Harper Hall and meet Maemira the Headwoman :)

Hi again JR.

I have several sonas in RBW if you want post.

Well, J'klin's already staked a claim on my girl, but she needs to meet people. She was at Dragonsfall for roughly 10 turns between impressing Phiralith and now, so if anyone's got a sona from there, she might know them. She's in Queen's Wing, so I don't have the excuse of using drills or shared sweeps to chit-chat. I hate writing meet and greets while washing the dragon, so pretty much anything outside of that will be welcomed!  :compress:

Of course you do.... shared training etc... with Tavia, she's in the queen's wing too. But she'll give you bad advice about men.  Or good advice depending on your point of view!!

Good to have you aboard and guess by now I'm probably 15th in line for a co-post!

Great to have you here!

Post by: Eimi on November 27, 2010, 08:28:04 PM
Welcome back, JR!  I know U'kaiah at least would have been there ten turns before (and probably making his way through all the Candidates and weyrlings if I know him!)  Hopefully after the New Year I'll be back up to speed and then I'd love to post with you!
Title: Re: Uhh.... Hi?
Post by: Chelle on December 02, 2010, 10:02:08 PM
Actually her Wingleader will post with her so drills and such can apply. Although Rhosyn will be technically grounded till next month. Meh. She's still there, watching and correcting though.

And E'rae is running around everywhere.

Welcome back. And I am eternally jealous. My birthday is coming *hint hint CAKE*
