Friends Only!

friends only


I love making new friends, so I will almost certainly friend you if you ask :D

A little about me: my name is Anna, and I live in Germany (although I'm not originally from there). I've been active in fandom, first on forums, then LJ, and then here, since about 2002, although RL means that I'm not as active as I'd like to be these days. I mostly post fic and write about RL: things that interest me like languages and current affairs, things that amuse me, plans and dreams, food, and travelling the world. Fandom-wise, I'm fairly multi-fannish - Yuletide is the highlight of my year! - but my biggest fandoms right now are Persona 3, 4, and 5, Dangan Ronpa, FFXIV, and The Witcher. I post my fic to AO3 under the same username, mk_tortie :D

Feel free to comment and ask me questions/make friends!

Hmm, I would actually suggest starting with The Last Wish, even though it's the short story collection, because it does set up everything else. Plus the stories are a lot of fun! On the other hand, if you've seen the show, you can probably skip it and Sword of Destiny, because the show borrows from both of those short story collections, and start at Blood of Elves. This is a pretty good discussion of which ones to read in which order: https://www.pcgamer.com/the-witcher-books/

Hope that helps! I definitely think more people should read the books - I enjoyed them a lot.

Thank you! I haven't seen the show yet, but since I can't imagine picking up the short stories again I think I will watch the show in lieu of reading those and start with the first novel-length book. Maybe there will be a time I can go back to the short stories.
