Silly Ronda, you forgot–I’m here because I want people NOT to be nice to me! …well, okay, they can be nice to me so long as they’re not nice to the poems. The poems need beatings and stirrings and stompings and excitement. They’ve been very bored gathering dust on my hard drive. ;)

And thanks very much again for directing me to this place. It’s good to be here. =)

(hi to anyone who reads this!)

Good to have you here. I am a big Science Fiction/Fantasy buff. Welcome aboard. I like whimsical/serious and fastastical stuff.
