I doubt many will remember me from the previous version. So now you are making me use my faulty memory.
Hah.
My real name is Matthew; HD Simplicityy is my Xbox gamertag and what I used in the older LegendFire forum. I first joined in 2016... yes, I will go with that. I had started my first term at Portland State University for, at that time, the Bachelors of Fine Arts for Creative Writing Fiction. The old forum was helpful for learning concurrently with classes. Got a lot of joy looking forward to forum updates probably each day after classes. When the forum went bye, I settled on using the Discord server (I use it a lot anyway), seeing posts on the Facebook page, and later getting critique and learning on Scribophile. I'll use them and this site.
I am writing my first book's second draft; I started that last Monday. I also got the opportunity for my first videogame writing gig at the start of this September, also through Discord. You may remember... or don't remember... I was writing a Tomb Raider fanfiction. Well, I finished it! Shards of the Risen: A Tomb Raider Story. I nearly quit it while on a different writer Discord server. I then realized, you know, it is great to complete a at-that-time big project. Thus, thee years, four months and four days after starting it, I typed the last line. It has stayed in that first draft since, even after posting it to Archive of Our Own.
To wrap up, I got a new job two months ago helping deliver appliances while I build my writing career at home.
It is great to be back here!!

Hey, congrats on finishing your Tomb Raider story! I remember that! And on landing the game writing gig too! I hoped something like that would happen for you. Very cool.

Welcome back! It's so nice to see you roaming the halls once again. Gotta see that FanFic! We now have a place for it in the Fiction section of the forum.

Welcome back! It's so nice to see you roaming the halls once again. Gotta see that FanFic! We now have a place for it in the Fiction section of the forum. Its a terrible, laughable quality draft, and I like my ideas. More than welcome to it! Its novella length. Is it possible to post that much in one go?

You too.
