@Un_Shattered_Heart Hahah most people start with voting on stories to show support and then slowly going through the ranks, from experience. XD Though hey, it's totally all right. The best thing about this fandom is that most people are super welcoming and you're bound to make plenty of friends if you vote and comment to support a lot of your favorite authors. A lot of close friends I have on here actually started when I commented on their stories and then PMed em with a simple hey, so you never know where you'll go! I have a lot of people who overcame their shyness and are having a lot of fun taking part in the fandom.
Hahahah I love that. I've dragged some friends that don't even know about the series into it and they get all excited and it's the cutest. One is convinced I'm a celebrity in the fandom and I have to keep telling her to stop. XD (Don't we all. We're writers. XD This is what we do) Again haha don't worry about the flattery love, I appreciate it, but I'm human and the path here was a long one to say the least!
Hello, do you see that message I just left? I'm the queen of rambling haha! The fandom's a lot more with friends, so try dipping your toes in the water every now and then. It's really worth it!
