It really was. I was born in '67, so I don't have a lot of first-hand memories (just some news casts and newspaper stuff from the last years), but I've read so much about it, historically, biographically,and fictionally. It has just always had this *huge* pull for me.
Our shared universe basically changes with whatever we're interested in writing at the moment. We've done 'real life', modern sort of things, and stuff set in the far future in spaaaaaaaaaaace (i love sci fi, and i love world building), we've done pure smut, we've brought in character from movies/tv....we basically just have fun, write what pings the loudest in our brains at the moment. The characters remain, the setting/'verse is ever-changing.
It's a great way to relax; we spend about half the time chatting on ICQ about the story and about life in general, and the other half just typing furiously away, heh.
