I came here because of the stories originally, then one day stumbled on interactive stories - and realized there was a level beyond that with member stories .... started corresponding with a couple of people .... made friendships with a few and got totally hooked on the games. Now, I stay because I can't imagine not being in touch with some of the people here ... and that includes many who I only am in touch with through the various threads. Pixies people are the best!
