On August 13th, 2005, which was a Saturday if I'm not mistaken, I'd signed up on one of the best message boards that I'd ever been on. I remember it quite vividly. I was sitting by my computer that night, trying to register with all sorts of usernames like "Muppetman" or "Muppetmaster"; luckily, the name "Muppetwriter" wasn't taken, and it was a good thing, because that was all I had left. LOL!!!

When I first posted on MC, I was sitting by my daddy's computer, eating a bowl of Raisin Bran. I think I posted this message....

Hi-ho, everyone.:smile:

My name's muppetwriter (see definition in signature), and I became a member of the Muppet Central message board just this past Saturday. I've been a fan of the Muppets since I was a year old. I love everything that's related to Jim Henson's Muppets, from Sesame Street to The Muppet Show to Labyrinth. I've been a keeping a few "Muppet Collectibles" over the past couple of decades, including a Kermit the Frog puppet (which has unfortunately turned up missing for a while).

Until now, most of the fanfics that I've written have been based on the Disney franchise, putting characters like Mickey Mouse and other popular characters in roles that no one has ever seen (or read) them in before. Well, now I'm dedicating my writing skills to "Muppet" fanfics, which will be a great task for me, seeing as how I've never written such a type of fanfic before. Lately, I've been focusing on a fanfic series centered on a crossover between the Muppets and characters from Marvel comic books (i.e. "Spider-Man", "The Incredible Hulk", etc.). There are a lot more fanfics that I have planned as well.:big_grin:

It really feels great being a part of a "Muppet" forum. I hope to have as much fun here as I did on another great message board.
And I've been definitely having a lot of fun during the past twelve months that I've been here. Since the first month, I've succeeded in writing one Spider-Man/Muppets collaboration, three X-Men/Muppets ones, one Incredible Hulk/Muppets crossover, a Sesame Street/Superman story, and now I'm in the process of developing a Fantastic Four/Muppets story. On the side of all that, I've written a yet-to-be-completed Fraggle Rock/Sesame Street tale and attempted to write a Muppets/Pirates of the Caribbean crossover. So, looking at my resume, I seem to be what you might call "The King of Crossovers.":big_grin:

So, now I'm sitting here by my computer, eating a bowl of Wheaties (with bananas...delicious!) and writing about what has absolutely been one MARVELOUS year on Muppet Central. And I plan to have many more, as long as I'm coming up with new ideas each month.


As my idol, Stan Lee, would say at this point, "EXCELSIOR!!!"

Mmmmmmm............Raisin Bran, Mmmmmmmm...........Wheaties with Bananas. But, anyways, congrats on One year on this board, and I hope I'm as successful as you have been(writing wise) when I get a year under my belt.

Actually, the Wheaties with bananas wasn't as delicious as I thought it'd be. It was all mushy and soggy. I guess next time I won't eat it with milk (lol!).

And thanks, Daniel, for the writing comment; that really means a lot. I have a feeling that you also will be successful with your writing by your first full year on MC.:smile:
