I remember, a long, long, long time ago, @Kosmos mentioned one of @Dreamery 's storybooks to me.

Ever since then I have wreaked havoc on every storybook I can find. Mostly Dream's though, but still.

I found out about storybooks by just simply walking into it.

I was tired of looking People's tab, so I wandered a bit to the right, and voila! There was this intriguing Storybook tab and I decided to know more about it.

It's impossible to be in chat and not learn about storybooks. Like the rectangle square thing.

I remember my first SB I was invited to join was Wanderlust by @ScarlettFire, which was fuuuuun. We were both newbies at the time!

I really don't remember... I was probably just exploring the site and clicked on the tab. I remember being a little intimidated though.

My first storybook was The Lost Ones made by @Elinor and it was super fun but died pretty quickly. I was such a newb though. xD

Kind of "other", for me. I suppose "a YWS friend" might also qualify, but I was super new at the time and I didn't really have any of those yet. I believe it was an announcement post for an official SB, that invited new people to learn about SBing and such? In any case, I thought I'd hate it with a passion ('cause really, I don't get to be the god of the story and I have to collaborate? Pff.), but @Griffinkeeper nudged me into giving it a commitment-free shot, and voila. Here I am.

(okay that last statement might be more powerful if I was still a member of the SB Crew, but STILL)

ETA: I think I posted like three times in a day on that one. And refreshed like crazy meanwhile to see if anyone's posted yet so I can go again :smt003
