Let us know when you get here, we newbees can create our own group😉
with Finallyfree (love that name). Newcomers probably have to put themselves out there maybe more than they are used to if they don't know a lot of people in TV. I'm a wannabee, but during my visits, I try to make it a point to engage people in conversation when I'm in TV, especially to get feedback about what TV residents like and dislike about TV. Not always the easiest thing to do, especially since I'm not an extremely extroverted person, but I've had some great conversations during my visits to TV. And I will be back in June to talk to more Frogs.
