readandedit Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) Hi there! Been with this website for the past 4 years, but only have the guts to be a member now... I read so many stories that sometimes I feel like an editor to the authors haha! Edited January 19, 2017 by readandedit 4

Saraband Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Hello, all -- I've been an occasional reader over many years, and finally joined because I've found several excellent reads for which I would have liked to thank the authors or ask a question -- and now it's possible for me to do so. I write for a living but tend not to write for fun or fiction so I don't know that I'll post stories. I have, however, read and sometimes edited the work of many friends, going back to when Nifty was (almost) new. If some of my profile information stays pretty blank, or sounds vague or coy, it's probably less about being shy and more about drop-down menu insufficiency . Also, while I have never hidden in any closets, I do sometimes hide from my students online. And some of them have mad Google-fu. Bottom line, you may certainly ask me if there's anything you want to know. It's nice to be here. 3

Bottom line, you may certainly ask me if there's anything you want to know. It's nice to be here. Welcome! I have always been faintly terrified of my students abilities to use Google. They can make it do things I can't..... I've never heard the term Google-fu before, but it's perfect! Well done and thank you! Anyway, welcome to GA as a fully fledged member able to ask questions and have opinions! Grab some plasma and make yourself at home! 1
Saraband Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 . . . I've never heard the term Google-fu before, but it's perfect! . . . Anyway, welcome to GA as a fully fledged member able to ask questions and have opinions! Grab some plasma and make yourself at home! Thanks for the warm welcome. (I can claim no credit for coining "Google-fu," as I first heard it in a conversation about researching and vetting obscure information. But I also love it, and I promptly stole it. As far as I'm concerned, you can, too.) 1

You already know it's a great place...and with the new system upgrades coming, it'll be even more fun--especially once we (hopefully) get the chat rooms back in place and you can do a meet and greet with everyone! Welcome! 1
ASH PHOENIX Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) Hello Long time reader, first time writer in here. I've been reading a lot of the stories here and I love them, I've been a writer for awhile now for a few years basically started writing in the roleplay fandoms and stuff mostly fanfiction though 'cause me I'm all about the fiction, paranormal and the downright weird. I love to read and watch movies mostly horror and things that make me laugh cause I just love laughing, most people keep telling me I'm anti-social and weird. I really like friends and making friends. I'll be posting a few stories on here and seeing if maybe I still have it in me. I'm the awkward hermit in the space ship lol, I love Doctor Who so the space ship sounds right. I'm all about friendship so let's make friends and be awesome. I also am a huge movie reviewer, movies and me are best friends. I'm a huge sci-fi, action, horror and paranormal film. I love watching things like Star Trek, Star Wars and Avatar. I love movies about cars mainly the Fast series cause well let's not start cause I could go all day and night about that. Edited March 10, 2017 by ASH PHOENIX 3

ASH PHOENIX Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Thank you so much for the welcome . Vin Diesel even his name sounds awesome, huh. It's awesome to meet another fan of the world of cars and greatness of the love that is never dying.
Uziel Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Hello everyone. Welcome to the newbies. I, however, fell like I've been away so long I need introduction. Lol.
FormerMember4 Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Hey Guys, I just created an account... However, been visiting this site for years. Hoping you guys might give some pointers navigating new layout. I'm blind and finding new layout more difficult for me. THX! 3
northie Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Hi and welcome, You may want to PM another member, Columbus Guy, who uses narration software with the site. There have been some issues with accessibility since the upgrade apparently and he's probably the best person to talk to regarding this. Otherwise, you could submit a question to the forum thread 'Software upgrade questions and answers'. https://www.gayauthors.org/forums/forum/262-software-upgrade-questions-and-answers/ Bear in mind that not everything is working as it should. Hope this helps. 1
FormerMember4 Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Thx Northie! Looks like labeling is the big issue for blind right now!! Links and buttons are unlabeled! Randomly have to tap one to see where it takes me. I know all are working through upgrade. Accessibility a huge issue right now! 1
gaygeek97 Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 I discovered this site about a year ago, but I've only just decided to join. I love reading the stories on here, and maybe one day I'll write one as well, who knows? 3
FormerMember4 Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 Welcome @gaygeek97 I like you ; recently joined. Have read a few years. There's a good group of people here! 2
ancientrichard Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 Welcome to the online family. This is one of the friendly places on the web. 1
Tammian Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 While I may not be that new here, I have only recently discovered this topic, so I figured I'd introduce myself anyway. I found this site completely by accident just under a year ago, and I haven't stopped reading since. I feel like it is one of the few safe spaces on the internet where I can be myself, and I would love to get more involved in the community on here. I don't write that frequently, but I may end up posting some of my poetry or something on here in the future... maybe. I look forward to chatting with you all. 5
William King Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 Here you can - as you already know - read stories, write stories, poetry, blogs, and generally just talk about stuff on the forum - even Harry Potter, it you must - you'll find loads of HP fans ? 1
AK79 Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Apparently, I've neglected to post in this thread. I'm going to try to be as brief as possible. (Then Alex proceeds to write an essay over 9000 words long. :P) I'm Alex. I'm a gay male, 28 years old, I live in Alabama. When I'm not reading stories here, or working on my own, I post on forums (including this one) read the news, work out in my garden, take care of my chickens, hold down a job and look after my boyfriend (of four years). I found GA through reading Comicality's work on an other website (I think everyone has heard of it--not throwing shade at all). I've often thought of publishing my own works of fiction, even if only as free fiction. However, I know that I both want and need resources that other websites cannot provide but GA does (cause I've spent time checking both here an the others out). I am looking for a beta/editor, but for some reason I don't think this thread is the appropriate place for that. If you're interested send me a pm (or whatever) an I'll get back to you as soon as I can. 4
