My agent met msbelle and Jesse and dropped me an email that read, "you really do know people everywhere!"
I was all, "duh! of course! the internets!"

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So many people meet their partners online that that seems like it would be easier to slide by without a whole story.
Also, I think it's nice that all the "offical" people at the Serenity thing were describing you people as friends and not fans.

I go out of my way to emphasize the nature of the internet community, though.
See, now, Nora, if you buy 50 copies of my book, you can just hand that out instead. It would save time.

sometimes it is, sometimes it's not. I've never gotten a negative reaction though, so much of the explaining is from my own dumb head.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
your agent is a cutie mccutiehead and I owe her an email.
OH! Allyson, you were also in a dream of mine this weekend. I was braiding your hair into two long braids.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Oh my god, INTERNET! I miss you so much.

I think that was just Tim and John. The guy from The Hollywood Reporter asked me if Joss knew who I was and I laughed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Not that the place wasn't full of fans, and not that there's anything wrong with that ... but, yeah, it was nice.
When I got to re-meet AD with Colin, it briefly flashed through my mind that "Hey! Non-fan connection!" but then a) I'd had a cover story the first time and b) I blurted out something terribly fannish about Angel later on anyway.
I have a friend who's getting involved with a guy she met playing online games (Everquest, or something). I'm pretty sure that no story I have will sound geekier than that, and who knows where the relationship will go? Who cares how geeky it sounds, if it works out?

It must have been at the same time I was writing you a letter! It's so nice to receive mail that isn't a bill.
