Hello Backstage. ✉️

I am curious as to how impressions are formed in an online community such as ours. So, here are some questions for you.

1. What was your first impression of GWA and the community, when you first joined? (Has it changed over time and what’s your current opinion?)

2. When people first see your username, what’s the first impression that comes into mind? (Based on your username alone, just the name. Forget everything that comes with it.)

3. Now, with everything that comes with it. Do you think your username comes with an impression formed, before others get to know you? (If you act or write, do you think your works make people prejudge you?)

4. What do you think your current impression is like? (How do you hope to come across?)

5. In person and online; What do you judge people on when you first encounter them?

6. In your opinion, are first impressions accurate and important?

7. It is a two-way social process, as those around you learn about you, just as you learn about them. What are the best ways to make a good first impression?

Thank you for reading, and I look forward to all of your answers. Thank you.

Now, it’s time for a reminder to take a moment to breathe. I hope you are doing well and are taking care of yourself. Don’t forget to have something to eat and drink! You are doing great and keep going. :)

Bonus optional question:

If you were a book, how would describe said book? (Feel free to describe it in detail.)

🍪 Have a wonderful day, afternoon, evening etc.
