Ok, So....I figure, before you all decide to join up and join us in this merry little, (Well ok HUGE!) project we've got going on you may want to know a little about us. So I had better start. For those who don't know me. My name is Gina Callen...(Yeah really! she says with a sigh. ) And yeah I was born on 11th March 1970. Apparently I have a lot in common with my namesake, all of which is purely coincidental, unless Shane Brennan stole my child services file, which I doubt. I am 43...(Duh like you didn't figure that out,)I'm a Goth and a Geek and am Married to a wonderful retired Marine and we have an 18 year old daughter, lovingly referred to as Junior. I love writing Fan-fiction for NCIS and NCIS:LA and write under the penname Callen37. I do write a lot as it is my escape from work, when i'm at work and I write at home as well as again like my namesake I don't sleep so well so have plenty of time. I do hope you will all pop on here and introduce yourselves we (The Admin staff) are lovely people, and just want to suck your blood....I mean we just wanna say hi. LOL I hope you all enjoy the project we are embarking on and have many happy hours reading the Fan-Fiction we are planning on writing for you, and maybe you'll find it in you to join in.
Stay Low.
Callen.

Well, how can I top that Intro? Haha. Well, I'm Meleena Collins. Normally I don't easily give out my surname but it's all over my Twitter, so what the heck - why not here too? I live in Australia. I have a younger sister I adore to no end, and 3 darling little dogs who have mastered the "puppy dog look", much to my disadvantage. I've lived on a farm most of my life, though I'm a city girl at heart. I'm a writer. No, not just a fanfiction one - I make books and stuff too! I'm unpublished at the moment, as I'm still adding the final, final touches on the first book in my series. Writing for me is both a hobby and a career - it's something I've very passionate about. Actually, I love anything creative - drawing, painting, photography, web design, and so on. Writing is also how I cope with hard times. I honestly believe I wouldn't still be here if I didn't have a love for storytelling - this also extends to reading, and watching awesome shows like NCIS/NCIS: Los Angeles. It's all got me through some tough times. For fanfiction, I'm more known as "Watercrystals" or "Kryptonian Sky" depending on which stories. I am proud to say NCIS was what got me into fanfiction - not only was it my first "published" story, but the only one I've written have over 100 chapters for. It's a record I am still trying to beat. So, yeah. That's me. Doesn't tell you much, really, but I suck at these sorts of things. Give me something to review, tell a story of, or generally fangirl over and I can metaphorically talk your ears off - but these "introduction/tell us about yourself" things... Nah, they're tough for me. I think I did okay! I am so excited to be a part of this project, which I should be since I created it lol. I'm looking forward to meeting other fans, discussing upcoming episodes for a variety of our beloved shows, and when we grow our members we will even host some competitions with awesome prizes. Things are very basic right now, but it's just a foundation we intend to build on. When episodes for NCIS: Blue are up, things will get a lot busier! We look forward to making this project for you, and we hope you'll enjoy it! ~ Meleena

A-And last (and quite possibly least), you've got Brittany, aka Irish Luck, Irish, Bri, Brit, 'Hey, you!' or whatever else you think will get my attention. Like Mels, I write fanfiction and independent fiction, although both have taken a back burner to medical school at the moment--I'm in my first year and loving every minute of it! Um, what other random facts can I tell y'all to make my life sound exciting? I'm a Notre Dame alum, a Texas native, and I know varying amounts of Spanish, Latin, Italian, and American Sign Language. I have completed one novel (senior thesis), although I never got around to revising it because a new story idea hit three days later and hasn't let me loose. I know the basics of catamaran sailing, can quote every line of The Princess Bride, and I love NCAA football and pro-basketball in equal amounts. There, that should be enough little details to satisfy anyone who's bothered to read this. I love the idea of this project and am so happy to be involved with all these creative geniuses! You probably won't see me around here as much as G and Mel (that pesky med school thing...), but I promise I'm looking in and can't wait to meet all you lovely readers. ~Irish

Oh, Brit, you're certainly not least! *gives virtual hugs* Loved your intro! Welcome, stranger! Ncislaaddict123, I look forward to getting to know you. And it's not a "problem" per se... *denial* It's a...Yeah, I'll think of something witty and somewhat accurate later. I'm glad you love to read fanfiction, because NCIS: Blue is here for the long haul! Expect to be challenged. Thanks for all the introductions so far. Really, we love meeting new people and especially fellow fans. Everyone is welcome to use the shoutbox as well and chat with other members. Our little community is growing - nothing makes us happier than to see new and known fans/friends joining in on sharing love for the shows we all adore. It's a pleasure to meet each and every one of you. Unless you're one of those cupcake stealing, Caf-Pow machine emptying, doughnut snatching meanies. If not, than I'm sure we'll get along just fine!

Hi guys. I hope I am allowed to post on here! I just saw the news about this posted in ncisla magazine and am so looking forward to this project!
My name is Carrie or my twitter account is @snowglory. Nelladel is a name I use mostly for my online gaming characters and apparently I had a proboards account so it wouldn't let me use Snowglory.
I am not a writer, but love reading and love Deeks haha. I am a 33 year old Canadian who loves reading, crocheting and photography. I have a loving husband who thinks I am silly for all my man candy tv crushes hehe and have two little boys who are 5 and 2.5 years old.
I have an instagram account and a facebook account, but because I post pictures of my boys on them they are locked. If you want an invite let me know!!

It is a delightful moment to get home from shop shopping and drama to see lovely intros from other fans! Callen is right, I am happy to meet you all and would like to offer a warm welcome to each. Picture a hug from Abby, and you'll understand Everyone is allowed to post here, and we strongly encourage it. At the moment there is a 10 post requirement before anyone can post fan art, fanfiction, or play games/activites. This is to keep out spammers. Don't worry, though, that post count will increase faster than you think! Feel free to share your opinions on episodes, characters, pairing, anything! You can create threads too if there isn't already one for that topic - want to spread some love for Ziva? Go for it! We also have some poll to vote in, and if you post a comment there then that's another point added to your post tally. So, once again, welcome everyone and I am very excited to getting to know other fans and discussing all variants of the NCIS world we love! Cheers! -- I have actual doughnuts now; bought them today - Callen no stealing them!

I assume you meant "Deeks" ? And yes, I agree! This entire project was inspired by Tony, then grew. We're all very excited to include these characters in the same living area, especially Tony and Deeks sharing the same sleeping quarters...with poor McGee Haha

Hello everyone! My name Evi, I am 28 and I live in Greece. I am a huge fan of NCIS and never did I think that I would eventually become an even greater fan NCIS:LA.
I ship Tiva- although as we all know that didn't end well at all. But Project Blue will be our getaway. I have a soft spot for Densi. I love everything about that couple and hope to see them together soon. I have never shipped a couple so fanatically.
I admire your will to make this project work. I have been working on my story for over 4 months and I still haven't finished it yet. Too much work you see....Everytime I get an idea while I am at the office, I write it down in post its. Then, when I get home I have to actually organize my thoughts and put those hundrends of post its in order. It's tricky!!!
Anyway, I am really excited about this project and I can't wait to read the first script!
Good luck guys!

Hi Evi, glad I'm not the only Tiva 'fan' here. lol. Nice to see you're working on a story, can I suggest instead of post it notes you get a notebook and keep it on you at all times, that way when you get an idea you can keep them all together. And BOSS I'M STEALING YOUR DOUGHNUTS!
