Monsieur Lestat, may I ask you for advice? How should I go about introducing myself to others on this site?

thelionscrimsonclaws:

Talking to me is a good start…I’m rather open to conversation and usually don’t mind when others approach for conversation or to engage in some sort of adventure. I would recommend that if you’ve an interest in interacting with someone, that you read their rules on their main page (if they have any…which I mostly don’t) and send an ask or fanmail someone to possibly engage in a story. It’s really that simple and nearly everyone I’ve met within the Tumblr roleplaying circuit is wonderful, open and eager to engage in stories with others!

I hope that I answered your questions adequately….return with any others if you like! I can also introduce you to others if you like….I’m rather new to Tumblr as well.

Anyone else have any advice that they would like to add?

-Lestat

^Yes, very well answered!

I would add: Asking people to promote you by reblogging a brief post about you (which you create about your RP muse, you might indicate whether you are OC-friendly, will RP with others age 18+, 21+, or all ages, if your content may be NSFW, etc., examples can be found mixed into my #bump tag.)

Check the archives of RPers you like, it will lead you to more RPers you might want to interact with and also show you how they RP. Some post "Starters" and "Ask Memes" to encourage other muses to wander into their inboxes. 

A friendly thing to do is send a muse an Ask (as your muse or Anon) if you reblog a post of Ask Memes or Starters from them ;]
