Hello all, I'm Krista, known on ff.net as Krista Perry. I've been writing fanfic since the internet was brand new and before it became common knowledge that using your real name on the internet was unwise. I occasionally write under the pseudonym "Utukki," which is the name of a webcomic I worked on for about a year back when I was young and ambitious. Now I'm old, mostly stalker-free, and just too ornery to care if people know my real name or not. I have one DC fic that is currently my writing focus at the moment - The Case of the Missing Detective. I haven't posted a new chapter in almost eight months, so I feel like a complete slacker, but I hope that once my kids start school next week, I'll have more free time to write. Looking forward to chatting with all of you.

Hi Krista! The name of that fanfiction sounded interesting so I decided to check it out. And after the first chapter . . . Let's just say you got me completely hooked on it, and I have no idea what's happening. I wish Conan could tell her . . .

Hey! Wow, was I surprised when you joined. I was worried I wasn't going to hear from you any time soon. I'm sure you've been busy too. Anyway, I'm glad you joined! Hope you get a chance to write more soon. Hope the family is doing well.

My family is doing great, thanks. And I joined because I hope that hanging out with fellow DC authors will help me get in gear to finish my fic, as well as help me be a little more social. My natural inclination is to be a complete recluse, but I would like to be more active in the fandom. And Natsumi, thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy it.

Good to hear. I know it was awhile ago but last I heard you guys had a bug going around or something.
I've been hoping the same for myself. Of course since I've been busy busy setting this place up and starting a new job, it's been work against me a little. haha ^.^; I got a ways to go with Mystery of the Meitantei though. Heh, can you believe I'm actually more inclined to be a lurker myself? I took a step out of my comfort zone for this... a big one. But I feel similarly, I've barely been very active in the fandom before I started writing my fic. Even fanart doesn't generate the same sort of interactivity as fanfiction does I've noticed.

Of course! I always like to read fanfictions that I haven't before, and this one has become one of my favorites! I even stayed up til 1:30 am last night reading it before I forced myself to go to sleep, and I got caught up with it today. That said, I really want to know what the next chapter is about and I really hope you'll update it soon!

Ah, so you're the one who reviewed each chapter as you read it! Thank you so much for that! I really enjoyed seeing how you reacted to each chapter and it's actually helped in getting my writing juices flowing again. I managed to write most of the second scene of chapter 12 today. So you can take credit for that.

Yay! ^-^ I hope you'll get it done soon and it'll be just as good as the other chapters!

Hi Krista, nice too meet you here! I hope the forum helps you with your inspiration, because I really want to know what's going to happen in 'The Case of the Missing Detective', but hey - family always comes first
