I think I need some help. :/
I was directed here by a nice person at the pbads group. I'll just say the same thing I said there.

Hi! I'm Elizabeth and I have been convinced to get an account here and look into this role play thing. Shells, the persistent friend, said this is like a whole universe in itself. And as I have been reading the entries in this group, I see it is. I don't really know what half of what you all are talking about but I am interest in learning and seeing if there is a group that will let a newb try this role play thing out.

Can anybody help me get started? Or am I in the wrong place? :/

There's a great write up on how to apply to games here: http://asylums.insanejournal.com/rp_tutorials/25917.html

There's also a huge list of places to find games (or just PSLs -- short for private storylines -- if you want to start out RPing with just one other person one on one) here: http://asylums.insanejournal.com/rp_tutorials/9345.html

Personally, I suggest rp one on one first as it was how I began.

I'm working on finishing up a quick guide about how to rp (what each part of the game is and stuff) right now! Hopefully that'll come in handy!

Welcome to the wonderful world of rp! You're certainly in the right place!

Thank you! I am looking at the RP BIBLE that was suggested by barrel_of_pbs, above. The lingo will come easier with all these guides I've been forwarded to. And maybe I won't sound like a complete nimrod. :) I see, from this group that the players (?) spend a lot of time making their pages/journals look very beautiful. I think that's amazing.

Thank you for making me feel welcomed!
