I have to bite on this question because I'm not only new to this list, but relatively new to fan fiction in general, having only discovered it last February. I was getting copies of Emergency! from CH and needed an episode list, so I went online to find one, and there I discovered all these stories written by fans, and I read everyone I think, until I found a S&H crossover story. Now S&H had always been my favorite show, and around the same time I found this story, it started playing locally in my market and I was taping like a wild thing. The crossover story led me to Lark's page and I read everything on that, and Lark's page led me to your site Flamingo, and I read every gen story like a starving person, but did not venture to the slash section, because I was still not even clear on what slash was, and from what little I knew, I didn't think I'd like it. That changed in a hurry when I found 'Total Eclipse.' I think there were 18 chapters posted then, and I was hooked, enthralled and desperate for more. 'Total Eclipse' led me to Suzan Lovett's 'Fine Storm' and it was off to the races for me. I read every single slash story posted and I haven't stopped yet. <vbg>
