Welcome to new members, please read!

We have a lovely new member today, Anhvil, whom I'm pretty sure is from FF. net

S/he would be our first member from there (I think!) so gets a specially warm welcome. I hope you post, we are very friendly, just jump in any topic, or start one of your own if you would like

(Any newish members who didn't get a welcome like this, only just thought of it!

Welcome Anhvil

So nice to have you here!

I actually think we have at least one other member from ff.net: Kuwpp

Post by **merry** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 7:12 pm

Ahhh I didn't realise Kuwpp was from FF !

Some do join and don't post, which is fine, sometimes people just like to lurk a bit, which they are welcome to do. But obviously it's nice if they want to join in!

Hi everyone

! I’m anhvil (she/her) and it’s nice to e-meet you all. Thank you so much for welcoming me and I am from ffnet, although I am just a lurker/reader there. North & South is one of my favourite novels of all time and I always love reading more about the dynamic of ODC Margaret and Mr. Thornton. It’s really nice to find a community where I could talk about them more.

Hello Anvhil! so glad to see you here! I agree with every word of what you said there. I love North and South so much.

We love READERS, nothing pleases us more than that there are people out there reading our stories, so you are very welcome

Hello y’all! I stumbled here from AO3 and thought this community sounded delightful! I’m a reader/writer and hardcore North and South enthusiast. Lost my mojo the last 2 ish years due to world events and the nature of my job but as things settle down I’m looking for encouragement and inspiration! Hopefully I’m not intruding here, I just really adore N&S and anything slightly adjacent.

Welcome Anhvil and RiversOnFire. Glad you see her, guys, and that our N&S fan group becomes larger. It's wonderful.

Yes, we love readers and we are open to any N&S ideas if you have them. We will love to write them.

Enjoy this forum, guys!

Hello everyone! I'm ElizaG1 on FFN and AO3. I've been a little disconnected from the fanfiction sites recently for many personal reasons, but I saw this community was started, and it seems like a nice place to connect full of many writers I have been admiring from afar! I do hope to read more of everyone's stories soon and connect with you all if you don't mind me!
Also excuse me while I try to remember how to use forum like this! It's a welcome throwback lol.

Welcome ElizaG! It's so exciting always to see a new member!

Pitch in anywhere, or post a new topic if you have anything North and Southish you'd like to discuss with us eager fans!

TO ALL NEW Members - we have a lovely topic called 'Where are we all from' where, if you are so minded, you can name your country and area vaguely and post a pic of your lovely scenery, be it city or field. There are some GORGEOUS pics in there from various Millers! and we would love to see yours!
