I started watching BSG on january 2011 (Random Christmas gift = the miniserie) and finished around August, and then like many others, I started hunting for more! More what, I didn't really know...But more!!!!

A Google search gave me Syfy forums (but it was all over, snif)and the wonderfull Bear Mc Creary's blog.
Found SI and You Made Me Believe : "What? WHAT? people are writing their own stories????"
New additions to my english vocabulary = fandom and fanfic...

That wasn't enough, I thought too I missed all the fun by not seeing this with everyone and discussing it with other people. Silly me as I would not have been able to watch it anyway!

So, from SI I went there to see what kind of thing it was, if it was safe...I saw a light, I went in, I'm not going now! Even if RL never allow me to be here as often as I would like, even if I lack writing skills, video making capacities, or photoshopping abilities, I like being here. Keep posting, please, I like you all!

More what. Excellent point. I think I did the same thing! I had watched 4.0 and was waiting for 4.5 to come out in Aus, and was missing a/r, but I had no idea fanfic existed, so I wasn't searching for that! Just randomly searching... Thankfully, I found something!

I do sometimes get sad that I wasn't around for the whole fandom experience. As in, when the show was running, but I would have probably annoyed everyone anyway. "You so know the Commander and the President are frakking." I'd have posted this after the mini. ;)

Anything to stop the boredom of work, I say!
