I first saw an episode of TYR when I was... 7 or 8, and by saying that it's clear I'm one of the youngest fans out there. As far as I know, I AM the youngest, actually, and if anyone is born later than 1982, let me know!

Though I'm from Sweden, I have always believed I was born to be bilingual, and I started to learn English when I was 6. Since then, my burning excitement to learn more has grown stronger, and today I am working hard to take an English exam THREE years ahead of my own grade! The language in itself isn't very hard to me, as I both think and dream in English. (Of course, no one believes me!) If I sing a song, I have to think twice to know if I'm singing in Swedish or English, since I use both languages every day. I don't speak as much English as I want to, but I write a lot instsead. I guess I've always been good at writing, and I started with longer stories and even shorter novels when I was 10. When I got the Internet at home and found The Young Riders Express Station page, I stopped writing in Swedish and started to both read and write TYR fan fiction! Since then, I have only written one smaller piece in Swedish, and then only because my teacher begged on her knees. I've also stopped reading Swedish books, further adding to her dismay! My father is very good with computers, so he taught me how to create a homepage. I could only think of two subjects for it - TYR and Gregg Rainwater! It took awhile, but soon I realized there wasn't enough info about my favourite actor to keep a page current, so I instead created a page devoted to his character on TYR, Buck Cross. There seemed to be so many fans searching for a such page, but no one had one to offer - it was just all in my hands! So far, that page has grown both bigger and better than my TYR page, which could be a sign... Maybe I should let The Rock Creek Way Station return to history? No, I don't have any such plans just yet, but unless things change for the better soon, maybe... In Sweden the show was sent on very odd hours, and I grew up thinking I was the only one who ever saw it. Until I came across Nesiri's page, I thought the show had only been aired in the US and Australia, and that I had been dreaming I'd seen it! But now I know it wasn't so, and lately there's been a lot of Scandinavians looking at my page. But most of my e-mail correspondents are from America, though.

Okay, name rambling time: Krazy Kirst - You know I love you and your page, keep it up! L-L-Lyn - Thanks for everything, you are such a sweetie! Buffalo Bridget - Well, that nickname says it all, you're great! Suzy - Yep, you're a jackass! Nesciri - Thanks for all those sane comments in this crazy TYR world! Sky - I believe I can fly... Kathleen - Saw you put up a link to my page... Right on, sweetie! Cheryl - Keep those sad tones, I like 'em! Jane - Come on, pleeeeeease write another fan fic! Tanya - You're not bad... for being a Jimmy's girl, I mean! Kristin - Keep an eye on the tube, darlin', I want that episode of Promised Land! Joanna - Your page is really, really looking great, don't fall behind now! Kathy Savige - I'm so glad all worked out with your page, and if you are just patient with me I might write you a story one day! Wendy - I know you haven't done much to your page lately, but I promise you will have work to do in your fan fiction section shortly! Cathy - I lost your e-mail awhile ago, but I haven't forgotten about you! Kathi - There ain't words to explain how excited I am about your coming story! Michiko Ohno of The Gregg Rainwater Web Page - Thanks girl, you always have some advice when it's needed! Lisa, I love your fan fiction. Thank you so much! And last, but not at all least, Mr. Mark Tapio Kines of "Foreign Correspondents" - Thanks for all those interesting chats about you movie(s) and the day I can afford it, I WILL send you some money! (Yeah right, I'd buy myself a ticket to Bahamas, and tell you to write when I get back, but I don't think that's what you wanna hear!)

Anna would love you hear from you! E-mail:)
