Spring Clean
After over two years on lj, it was time for a spring clean of the flist. Fandom interests have diverged and, in many cases, diverged for some time. You can say, rightfully so, that a lot of that is me. It's not that my interests have changed, per se, as much as my true interests have fully emerged. I absolutely love science fiction. It will always be my main genre of choice.
But more than that - I've decided to change the way I use my flist. Everyone has different ideas about what 'friending' means, and I wish lj didn't use such an emotionally loaded word. For me, the flist is going to be a smaller group of people I interact with regularly instead of a spread-out network of people with only one or two overlapping interests. This means that I'm no longer friended to some very nice people, highly talented writers, etc. You are still all of those things. We simply don't talk anymore or have never talked.
Nonetheless, this was quite hard to do. I wish you all the best.
