A bit of an announcement.

Finished my final exams--starting as an intern next month. :)

I did delete this journal yesterday, but I figured it'd only be fair to give prior notice. I am deleting this journal in 24 hours. My SPN fics will still be on FF.N (apart from thamasoma jyothirgamaya and the By Your Side 'verse, which I will upload shortly), and Ao3 (which I haven't ( Read more... )

Glad to hear you will update AO3 as it would be a shame to lose access to your fics - but I'll miss you over here...

Why not just make this dormant? I'm curious as to why people feel the need to delete their journals.

I'll miss you too! But I hope to keep in touch still, because the best thing about fandom for me is all of the friends I've made. It's just that I came to the realisation earlier this week that Show has been making me feel stressed and unhappy more often than not, and that the only reason I was even watching it (apart from Sam Winchester) was to keep up this journal. The decision to delete is more so to remove temptation to sit and analyse the show and make myself even more unhappy.

I'll still be on tumblr, though! (And facebook, if that's okay with you. :) )

I'm sorry to hear that! Glad you are preserving the fic, of course, but I've enjoyed your episode reactions and just having you around.

Congrats on your exams, though, and do what you need to do to move into the next stage happily. I hope you keep writing. Let me know if you want to stay with 12mowrimo -- I can invite your other account.

Thank you so much! I'll still be on tumblr with the odd comment or two on Show, but I kind of want to distance myself from SPN as much as possible right now.

Oh yes! I would love if you could invite duckondebut to 12mowrimo--I'll still be writing this year. :D

Can I ask one thing? Could you count the ep reactions where Sam is talking to Lucifer and Ruby as fics and put them on AO3? I'd really hate for those to be lost.

I'll send an invite to your other self.

Aw honeybuns, I'm so sorry I've been MIA on facebook and LJ--these last few months just went by in a haze. :(

Aaah the birthday fic! It's going to be my last SPN project--I will definitely finish it!

Thank you bb. <3 How about we do our facebook play by play chat for next week's SPN, huh?

Congrats on the Exam! Sorry to see that you are going. I've enjoyed reading your fics.

I'm glad to see that you are going to keep your stories on AO3.

It's been nice seeing you on my friend's page - sometimes I like to hear about the world beyond SPN too. But I've been as detached from LJ as you have lately, maybe, so I do understand.

Congrats on embarking on an exciting new stage of your life; and thanks for making sure your fic is still accessible!

Thank you so much! Yeah, it's been fun, but feeling as disillusioned with Show and fandom in general as I am now, it's probably for the best.
