Hey! Good to talk to you again! I just got through my freshman year of high school. It went really well, but it's been so long since I've read any Beatles stuff that now that I'm free to get back on lj, I don't even know where to begin. Have I missed anything interesting?

How have you been?

I think johnheartpaul has been very quiet and things have kind of died down from how they were. I guess that happens! Things are fine otherwise!

Congrats on getting past your first year of high school! :-)

That's a shame about jhp. Glad the rest of life is going well.

Thanks! And, oh whoops, did I say high school? I guess I did...I meant college. ^^ (see, that makes a lot more sense.)

You need to read The Wasp Factory. In fact, you need to read Iain Banks (novels) aka Iain M Banks (science fiction.

Hello, dear! It's lovely to see you again. :)

How has college treated you so far? Good roommates? Good professors?

Well, again, it's just so nice to see you. And OMG READ LIFE OF PI.

Hello hello! It's great to hear from you! :) I wasn't sure if you were still involved in Beatles stuff. I haven't seen any of your writing online lately. Are you still writing that wonderful Widow story?

College has largely been fun. I had kind of an off roommate (she stopped talking to me except in response to direct questions sometime late fall, early winter). But I had some great professors and I made a lot of friends.

Life of Pi sounds really interesting. Thanks for the recommendation! *adds it to list*

I'll be taking "Widow" up again next month; look for an update in the early Fall. :) Yeah, I look in on JHP once in a while, but without much hope; it's really gone to the dogs. Which is sad, because I see some new blood there who would have been great fun back in the good ole days...

Anyway, good to hear about your new friends. Now you'll be able to avoid "off" roomies in future semesters. What are you studying? Extracurriculars?

Brilliant, mindso. Thank you for putting all this together.

To add, here's the dilemma I have when people request specific criticism and complain about blanket statements that the quality of fic has declined.

A, I only made statements like that because people were asking why there was dissatisfaction with the community. I was only trying to explain why I wanted to start looking to meet my needs elsewhere ( ... )
