I was a long time reader of the stories, and tried writing a few myself. I was intensely curious as to whether they were any good or not, from a literary standpoint (I have a long standing fantasy of being a professional writer). I joined up to post my work so I could find out if people liked it.

I found the forum whilst idly exploring the site. I was rather shocked to find that other people like me really did exist, so I hung around to see what kind of things went on here.
