Welcome to the site, Liza!
Have you read all of the VA books?
I'm new too, and I basically just finished figuring the site out, so if you have any questions, just PM me, and hopefully I'll have an answer. If not, I'm sure one of the more experienced posters will be able to help you out, such as Ivashkov, who I'm sure will introduce himself soon, SecretMagic, who will also probably introduce herself soon, TonyStark, or Dimkaluv.
Happy posting!
