Dan, if you want, you can head over to the Promotions board under the Creativity category and promote your dad's literary work! Thanks Liv. I'll do that.

Shogun: the mystery man revealed! You forgot to mention that you're a great writer. That stuff you put up in that RPG Hater started way back when on TFF was stellar.

Thanks! My philosophy has always been 'write something you would want to read.' I've always found it to be a pretty good way to go.

I was told to introduce myself here! So I will...I read all of the other one's that were posted and fair warning; I am far less interesting.
I'm Ladybutte (Y'all have taken to calling me Lady which I absolutely love by the way), but in the real world my name is Cheyenne, and I am American and proud of it too...even though things gets a bit crazy over here sometimes.
I am 19 years old...and I will be turning 20 in January. Judging from the rest of the posts, that makes me a baby. I come from a very military family...My ancestors have all been in some branch of the military (mainly the United States Air Force)...and I disappointed them all when I decided to not join up and go to College instead. I am currently studying History at Montclair State University...with hopes to teach in the future.
I have a little white dog named Maggie and a big white cat named Smokey Joe...but these are actually my mother's pets since I still live at home...because I am a poor college student. We also have an African Grey named Mr. Jones...but he is not very nice. I aspire to have a hedgehog...but I will likely wait until I graduate to get one. And I will name his Casper and that is my plan.
Aside from my passion for history I also absolutely love art and making art. I have many pieces that maybe I will share with y'all one day (I am not great...but I so love it). I also love cooking and museums of any sort.
I am also in a relationship and I have been happily for three years... I am not too sure religion wise....but I do believe in god and I hope no one take offense to that hah.
I'm am very loud and aggressive believe it or not and you all will likely see that side soon if I become comfortable enough....(but I have been told that it is funny rather than mean...which I sincerely hope is true). I have an affinity for butts (hence the username) and I have a bit of a potty mouth which I do my best to keep a lid on. I like roleplaying (although I have not in a while)...I really want to get into D&D but I have not the time......I love reading about history and mysteries...and I like comic books...anime (sometimes)...cosplaying, I like supernatural, arrow, doctor who (to an extent)...and many more fandoms....and I LOVE video games wheee I cannot think of anything else at the moment....but yes! That is me kind of.

I think you're going to fit in just fine around here, Lady. You sound like just our kinda forum inhabitant really, so I hope you're not going anywhere any time soon! As for your art, we have a number of great artists here who have posted their stuff over here. You should check it out, and maybe even post some of your own.

I do not plan on going anywhere, hahaha. Once I commit I usually stay onboard. I will start a thread! That sounds fun..You guys can see my lovely crap art! Hah! and I will also post pictures of all my animals...My cat has especially silly photos.
And I love rhythm games, platformers, puzzle games, visual novels, some fighting games, and I like very few RPGs...but there are a few that have caught my fancy. Since I am a giant 3-year-old I love games with cute art and lots of colors. I am super picky though...just like I am with food.
