JLIN...I haven't been here at FFF that long...about 4 months, but I just wanted to tell you that out of the many 100's of threads and topics I've read & responded to...well I think your simple question has been one of the very best!

How has Firefly helped me? After years of my guitar player saying that I ought to be able to write songs, I finally got inspired to write some about Firefly. So then that led me into fandom, which led me into getting to go as a guest to a bunch of conventions all around the country, which led me into meeting all kinds of shiny people . . .

But best of all, my guitar player no longer bugs me to write songs.

I think that most of us find this one of the more important things! You all are the best people you could find on a fan community site! Or on other places for that matter.

Also, Firefly is just such a great show...I've never seen one before that I've been this attached to!

This last summer I was very ill. I was off work for almost five months.

At first I didn't feel up to doing much of anything, but after the first month I needed someting to keep from going crazy.

I watched...at times it was only listened to... Firefly and Serenity. I watched every episode, and the movie with and without commentary a number of times.

The Last month and a-half I wrote Firefly, post-Miranda.

There was never a question if I would live or die, just if I wanted too, LOL. Joss's verse saved my sanity.

It gave me something else to have in common with friends and family. There is something in Firefly that for everybody.
