Post the explanation of where your user name came from. Then tag TEN users whose explanations you'd like to hear. If you are tagged, then post the explanation to your page.

rosweldrmr = Roswell Dreamer (because most places don't allow user names long enough to suit it.) And when I was in high school, our thespian troope was getting personalized T-shirt's made and I was only allowed 10 letters - so I had to figure out a way to shorten Roswell Dreamer. Thus rosweldrmr was born.

Now, as to what exactly that means. Roswell is from the TV show that was canceled about 5 years ago. And Dreamer, because, well... *is only slightly embarrassed* that was the first real ship I had. My first OTP, before OTP was even common nomenclature. Max and Liz, the star crossed (literally) lovers. An alien and the human he risked everything to save. Oh, I was so young then. Only 13 or 14 when I was the pilot. It changed my life. Without Roswell, there would be no fanfics, or fanart, or fanvids... there would be no rosweldrmr. And Ash (as you all know me) wouldn't exist. I'd still be plain, old Winter. [God... no one calls me that]

But that was the last time I hard-core shipped canon. And soon after my delve into Roswell I discovered Polar (Michael & Liz). And I haven't looked back since. But I already had the name. It's unique, so there's never any fear when signing up for a new account somewhere if someone's taken my username. (which is rare in fandom)

Now, I fully support OTVB in almost every single fandom I'm in.

There... and that's what my name means. Boring isn't it. ;) On another note. my FF.net account you'll notice isn't under my username. Instead, I registered with Winter Ashby, my real name. I did that beacause I already had another ff.net account under rosweldrmr. but it was only for my roswell fics and when I started writing anime, I wanted to keep it separate. That was a stupid idea. I have since shut the other username down, and use only my Winter Ashby account. I know I could change it, but everyone is so used to it I don't really want to.

okay, so now on to who I tag. I don't have 10 friends *pathetic* so I will just tag these eight: ane_s_thesia, beckingham, forever3330, graychalk, noma_sama, sakura_charmed, samurai_ko, spiritualenergy
