This is my first post to this particular group (or any internet group,
for that matter), and I just want some information on decorum so that I
don't make a virtual faux pas

First off, is there any special requirement to post a Ranma 1/2 fanfic
in this group? If so, let me know! I have one in the works (actually,
its starting to look like a ongoing series) and I'd like to let someone
other than myself see it.

Second, if I AM allowed to post my fanfic (the first draft, anyway), how
long should each section be? I've barely started and this sucker is
already 16 pages long.

Okay, now that's out of the way, maybe I should introduce myself. My
real name is Adam J. Barnes. this is the last time you will see me use
this name. If anyone else uses this name I will send them flame e-mail
until their service provider crashes. My handle is Alpha Centauri, the
name I ALWAYS use online. any contraction of said handle is acceptable.

I've been a Ranma 1/2 fan for less than a year, but I'm already badly
addicted (if there is such a state) and most of my free cash is going
into building my video library. I DO like other anime, but none of it
has really gotten the deathgrip on my pocketbook like Ranma 1/2. I'm
almost afraid to take a look at Rumiko Takahasi's other stuff for fear
of going completely broke.

Hopefully I haven't blown too many posting rules with this message. If
so, feel free to flame me (sigh). As for my story, if you're really
interested in seeing it, let me know and I'll step up production. Part 1
should be ready in about a month or so (maybe sooner).
