I've been reading your fics for a while, and have reviewed anonymously before, but now I've got me very own livejournal, I'm floating around collecting all my favourite peeps in one place - if you're on my profile I'll never loose you again in the LJ!verse.
Your welcome post to everyone visiting here is refreshingly honest. I think a lot of people online do like to hide behind their online alter-egos, myself included. I've chatted to my RL friends about some of my obsessions (Supernatural at the moment), but it's hard as they don't share the obsession, and generally have never seen the show. (They are pretty much all drama-bods and out working/socialising/whatever in London most of the time). I can't imagine confessing that I'm currently into Wincest - I mean how do you go about explaining that gay incestuous porn is out there and very enjoyable to read. Ugh, ain't happening, not with my RL friends. LJ journal friends, though, that's another matter.
In an effort to keep RL and online life separate I have 2 myspace accounts, 2 websites, and 2 email addresses (well, 6 if you count work, an old hotmail one, a dummy yahoo one set up a long time ago to hate!spam an evil person and a general one for me and the husband combined). The RL me also has a facebook, but it's only the online me that plays with LJ. Sheesh, it all gets very confusing, and sometimes I totally don't know who I'm supposed to be!
Anyway, this comment is turning into a bit of a counselling session, but really it's just me talking to myself.
My real name is Jacki, but online I go by: twiglet ::twiglet:: twigletmoo doop
Er, I'm sure I have more, but I'll stop there for now!
