Sounis, what have you done for me lately?

Or,

HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY, SOUNIS!

In November 2005, while waiting very impatiently for the publication of The King of Attolia, some people got together and started a fansite/discussion group.  Five years later, sounis is going strong with over 650 members, nearly 1,600 journal entries, and a brand-new book to squee over.

In celebration, let's do a little bonding.  What has sounis done for you?  Why did you join, what have you enjoyed, what has it meant to you?






Then we'll all sit around, hold hands, and sing Kumbaya.  Maybe wave our lighters and cell phones.  :)

I found Sounis right after King came out and instantly loved the crazy fannishness of everyone on the comm, who were just as obsessed as I was---or sometimes more! The discussions are so intelligent and get me to think even more deeply about aspects of the book that I never even realized existed, and having this community to turn to has meant that I haven't had to suffer alone (or in silence) while going through Gen withdrawal or waiting for the next book. Thank you Sounis!!! :)

Oh and you guys introduced me to Miles Vorkosigan, who makes the time between QT books go wayyy faster. *grin*
