Salutations, I am new. I am not going to tell you my name, no offense--that's sort of the point of a screen name, isn't it...? Well, maybe I will tell you. I am Nicholas, from, dare I reveal it, Alaska, United States. Please don't shun me; I don't like being shunned.
I shall try to become acquainted with the sorts of things one talks about here, and the implied standard of (like holycrap man :0 rotfl) writing correctness. I am also semi-painfully aware that if I ever, EVER misspell or mis-punctuate anything at all I will undergo the virtual equivalent of tarring, feathering, public beating, and, ultimately, slow burning at the stak. I do not look forward to this, but I know the day will come, and fairly soon, I should imagine, because I am, on the whole, not very smart and fairly ignorant... Aren't you simply thrilled to have me?
Fforde-related background information: I am a rookie. I have only read The Eyre Affair, The Fourth Bear, and Something Rotten, in that order. Isn't that terrible?
