Nausikaa Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Hello! I'm Nausikaa, new to these forums. About a year ago, I found the ASoIaF books and pretty much inhaled them, finnishing one after the other. Amazing books! I recently found this forum and so here I am. Looking forward to discussing these books with everyone! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan Fox Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Hello all!I read the books and fell in love with them earlier this year. I recently realised that I had been avoiding the forum in fear of spoilers- now I've finished them all I can dive right in!In other bits of mild interest; I write fantasy/horror short stories and have a few published here and there, I'm writing my fourth novel length thingy, and I co-host a podcast called the Box Room about geeky stuff. Well, mostly Doctor Who at the moment. I've been browsing around for a while, and I think I'm feeling brave enough to talk now... ;)Oh my! It's a small, small world!

Susan Fox Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 I wasn't being cynical at all! I was absolutely shocked to find a friend from another board here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warg Arry Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Ummm, Hi. :rolleyes:Hey Susan :) /\-This was sort of out of context for us.It came across as more contempt like for "having" to be in an intro thread.Which was kind of weird cause no one "has" to intro themselves here. It's nice to do though.But now we know it wasn't a message to the board in general.Welcome muchly to the forums Susan Fox. Hope you have read all the books because as much as we try. Spoilers can be stumbled across.And, to be perfectly honest, clever and and cynical seem to be working out just great for me.It does for most of us as well ;)edit for a missing (K) Edited August 29, 2010 by Saurian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anuhealani Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Hello, all! Brand-new reader here. I'm 30 and live in NYC, an unrepentant sci-fi/fantasy geek (I love Tolkien, Star Trek, BSG, Firefly, and the list goes on) who somehow only just discovered this series. I blew through the books this summer (couldn't put them down) and have been lurking here for a few weeks now. If there are future NYC meetups, I'd be game. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually met the author in Birmingham, UK several years ago. Nice fella.Am currently living in Worcester (also UK) and am waiting with baited breathe for the next book and TV series.My claim to fame is that I have actually been on the set of the HBO series as my cousins work on the set in Belfast. Did you know they paint the grass to make it greener???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datepalm Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 My claim to fame is that I have actually been on the set of the HBO series as my cousins work on the set in Belfast. Did you know they paint the grass to make it greener????!?! Is that why we think the neighbours grass is always greener? We've been conditioned by television to be dissatisfied with the actual natural world? Anyway, welcome to you and to Ku.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Hello - just introducing myself properly. My name is Jeremy. I am male. I managed to go to Aussiecon last Friday, and also snagged a seat at the dinner with GRRM. Uhh...what else... I have been living and working in Melbourne for the past 11 months but am from San Francisco, and will be going back to SF in October. The end?
