Let's talk about those. Once upon a time, I was able to keep my fandoms in small, manageable circles where you get the best excitement over a thing that you love and have feels for. And then Tumblr invaded and suddenly, your mental interface is struggling to code around an infinitely scrolling, unorganized dashboard when you're used to having just a few tabs open. And this dashboard is infinite! And scrolling! And unorganized! And full of pretty things that we cannot ignore.
Anyway, here is a few questions that I designed to help me figure it out and also it would be cool if you wanted to answer it too, why not.
What fan domains do you enjoy?
Anime, Manga, TV, books, comic books, and certain films
A particular...?
For anime and manga, it is sports, hands down. Outside of that genre, One Piece. TV and film varies: I like Steven Universe, Adventure Time, sitcoms, science fiction, Star Trek, MCU, Fast and Furious, Inception. And various comics and webcomics across the board.
Fanfic? Fanart?
I write it! Or I did. And I have been very pan-genre about writing. I post on AO3 and now and then I obsessively go back to hunt for typos and such. I would love to write more.
Fanart, of course but it's way harder to "break" into unless I'm drawing constantly and posting constantly. I'm not good enough for that.
Talk to me about AUs
I LOVE THEM. I will read them. I will read Coffeeshop, College, Kidfic, Regency, Harlequin, Buddy Cop, High School, and more. I tend towards the more slice-of-life, domestic cuddlefic more than anything. But I'll read anything once. I love AUs. I also like plotty, long fic that tackles plot holes but I myself rarely feel the need to explore or dive into anything that deep in my own writing. There are so many better writers out there who are much better at that.
Probably more later.
