I just popped into the kink meme community after a couple months.
I was surprised and not-so-surprised to see that it had been officially closed.
st_anon did an absolutely marvellous job over the months.
The new movie and communities like the kink meme really have done wonders for the franchise and fandom.
As a long time Trekkie, I am so happy to see the excitement that has circulated since May til now.
And to put it simply, after reading for years in the Harry Potter fandom and avoiding sitting down and writing myself, the kink meme is what finally spurred me to try. And for that, I am grateful for the many writers who inspired me to give it a shot. I am very much enjoying myself.
There is also something very satisfying to write/read for a fandom that, in terms of slash, can boast the original, actual, bonafide, you-bet-your-ass, One True Pairing, even if they aren't your preferred. Let's all thank Kirk and Spock for having so many ambiguous TV moments, shall we? :)
I hear there is a new community that has started up, so I am off to find it in the pages and pages of comments.
Oh, and, December is upon us.
