The time has come and passed. This being our One year anniversary this week. Some authors have come and gone, new ones have joined along the way, but Michael, Maria, Liz and Max have stayed true though it all. A whole year of writing and dedication to it. :grinclap

Many Roswell RPGs have been played over the years, but these authors/characters have made this the first one to continue on day after day, month after month for a whole year.

And- it's not even over yet! So here's to more storytelling... the ending still so far away.

Authors: Feel free to share your personal comments on writing your character during the past year. And your favorite part/scene that your character did. Try to leave links to that particular part, so others can read that section also!

Our dedicated readers: Thanks for taking the ride with us!

Lurkers/New readers: It's intimidating, we know... being so long now. Of course you have to remember, it's been posted on just about everyday for over a year. In any case, we hope that you enjoy the parts you have read, or just jump in and enjoy the journey with us from this point. And for those that start back at the beginning.. we hope it is worth your time and you laugh, cry and scream along with us!

Here is where the story began- December 2, 2002:

Whoo Hoo. And so it begins...

(Max) "Michael? MICHAEL? Come on all ready.. I'm starving.. "

The beginning can be found either here:

I just wanted to say that since the beginning, I have felt so in touch with Maria and her personality. Because of this RPG, I have gotten to know each and everyone one of you, some more than others, and it's truly been amazing. I mean, playing Liz's best friend has been tons of fun, because Liz and Maria have had some great times together in this RPG - hopefully Cory and I can get some more of those best-friend moments back soon, because I miss them

As for playing Michael's on-and-off girlfriend, well... it's been very, um... stimulating. I mean, some of the scenes have been hot while others have been quite entertaining

Stalker just does an incredible job, which is why it upsets me when she says otherwise :nono

As for favorite lines, I would definitely have to say that I've gone through old threads and cannot believe some of the things Maria's said in the past. What I mean is, I read these things and I go, "did I write that?!" because a lot of them are just so damn funny :lol

I can't wait to have some more scenes with Tess, because it should be fun :smirk

Anyway,

all, and

for letting me be a part of this wonderful experience :grouphug

OMG! Go, us! :celebrate

Okay... first off, thanks to all of my co-writers, but especially Spicy, Bunnie, and Cory, because they have been on the ride for so long - :thanx

for making it through all of it for that long. It's actually an experience I wouldn't want to miss because the fact that I am a schizo now turns my life so much more entertaining! :lol

I have just returned from a Roswell-weekend, and I actually miss Michael in my head now; it means that I will throw myself back into the RPG as soon as I have more than two free minutes in a row.

Being a guy for over a year now, and a not very healthy one either, has sure left its marks. I wouldn't trade it for anything though. I am really glad I never got to play Maria because I could never have done such an awesome job as Spice is doing. I have actually returned to being a Dreamer as well, something that is restricted purely to the RPG and the awesome, so much more in-character than the show writing of Bunnie and Cory.

Michael is tough to play at times because it's hard to find the balance between the sweet side in him and the one he usually displays, and to find the right tone to write in, one that is neither too sappy nor too cold. I always want to try and define Michael more over his actions than his feelings because I usually think he doesn't even really know what he's feeling since he lives in denial most of the time. I feel like I fail to do so most of the time, but there are some parts I do like: my favorite one in terms of giving insight into his character is the one where he gets up for school in the morning and for the first time is actually looking forward to it because he is about to see Maria (right before he follows Tess to the library). I'll post the link next time, if I find it...

So much for writing Michael. I'm always up for the challenge though but take longer breaks at times when I feel that my writing is inevitably going to suck and will always fall short of his character. Since I refuse to ruin the role I was given and don't want to destroy any scenes either that has happened a lot lately, and I am sorry for that.

I miss the RPG a lot though, and I think I'd like to go on for a little longer still.

:thanx

to you guys for being so awesome people! :grouphug

Ahhh...thank you, Stalker! :grouphug

A year, huh? How insane is that? I know I've been MIA lately and I apologize deeply for that, but aside from real-life, Liz was getting a little hard to write. I love being her though. How many girl, beside Maria

, get to have a hot alien as a boyfriend?! :grin

Plus, mine's a King! :lol

Bunnie, you have got to be the best Max ever! You should of written for the show...it might still be on if you had any control over Max! :grin

Stalker and Spicy...I just adore your M/M. You nail the characters beautifully! You never cease to make me smile or laugh! :grin

Love you all! :loveu

Cory -.

right back at ya!

Thanks for saying that about M&M. :love

*sighs* I know, a year is insane... I still don't feel like stopping though, even if I have been somewhat slacking off lately.

What about you guys? :dunno

I have to say I agree with everything Spice said. I feel the same way. Let's see... it's interesting how I never even picked a character. Max was somehow just handed to me. :thinking

It's been, wow... what can I say? I think the main thing that always carried me was the fact that I hated his character so much that I felt compelled to change it to my way. :lol

I personally never thought the four of us would make it as long as we have. That in itself is purely amazing. And the fact that even a year later, I wait in anticipation to see what M&M or Liz will say next. (Along with the others, but I'm going on what Stalker had mentioned with the four of us on this journey for so long.)

Liz was getting a little hard to write.

I think we all feel this way alot. I know I sure the hell do. Everytime you leave me hanging it takes me hours to find a way to the surface. :lol

LMFAO

Nobody, but Liz would be so damn cute as to say that. :shake

As far as me being the best Max or writing for the show-- thank you humbly, but I highly doubt that. All I know is that if there wasn't Liz (you) then there would not be me. It is because of your writing that inspires me (or shall I say stump? :lol

) to write the way that I do. Well... that and Max wants you constently. :lmfao

You knew I had to quote you on that one right? :lol

Thank you. Honored, I am. :thanx

I think in some odd sort of way, it has reinforced that concept for me as well.
But along those same lines-- interesting, how in the show M&M were just that M&M. I never really paid much attention to them in the show (my eyes were glued someplace else. :lol

) but here, I've fallen in love with your Michael and Maria kills me with hysteria. I have become so engrossed with two of them, I almost begin to panic when I figure out their storylines. :lol

As far as my favorite Max part? Wow. That's a tough one for me. I have a few, but to narrow it to one of my favorite parts would probably be...

Destiny. I think overall, it was the one time I spent weeks and months writing it, researching it, editing it, ect. It took forever to get out of my head the storyline. It was the one time, I actually cried out of saddness. Sometimes, when it's quiet I can still envision him slumped on the floor holding that wedding ring.

As far as quitting, I hope not. I hope that we would be able to complete this RPG first and I look forward to all the new posts this year! :grin
