Title: Late to the party
Post by: JohnW on 25 September, 2022, 04:07:07 PM
I came second in a Megazine short story competition ten years ago and have been coasting off it ever since.
Thought I should say Hi.

Today marks one year since I registered here.

For so long I was barely aware that this place even existed.
So much I missed!
I arrived just as Colin's grand tourneys were coming to a close.
So many of the legendary boarders had already departed or disappeared.
Searching back through the strata of older posts, I dimly perceive the primeval days when heroes battled with trolls and tricksters on an as-yet unformed forum.
The world has cooled since those times.

But for all that, I'm glad I signed on.

Catchphrases!
Custard creams!
Whizz-Kids vs. Chip-ites!
Byelorussian print cartridges!
And of course the nail-biting drama of filling an Advent calendar.

Here's to another giddy year.

Thank you kindly, Linc – and all who expressed their good wishes.
