Leviosa was wonderful
I waffled a whole week after Leviosa before posting this because I wanted to make my post as good as the con was for me. Of course, that led to me feeling like I couldn't do it proper justice, which means I was in danger of not posting at all. Seems like that's what's happened to me posting here: I want it to be thorough, engaging, and clever, ( Read more... ) -

HP Reunion going on now and online
Background for those of you who know me from non-Harry Potter fandoms:

My Fannish Heart
How did 11 months go by without me posting? Like this: whooooosh!So hi, everyone who still might be here. I never imagined myself turning into an LJ lurker, but apparently I have. I still click on my flist all the time, but I've just felt, I dunno, thinking that my fannish interests and little life stories would just be dull reading. But so many of ( Read more... ) -
Star Trek
Maybe I never mentioned that my first fandom was Star Trek. So I thought this was pretty cool - it's a photoshop combination of the original and reboot characters.
Old and NewBeware, though - I started in perusing the site, and the next thing I knew it was 2 hours later. As bad as TV Tropes ( Read more... ) -
I'm in love!
I have fallen for a new fandom. It's been the bright spot of this awful week, to be honest. Before I drop its specific name, I want to talk about the more universal facets that I think everyone still reading my LJ can relate to: both how and why we fall for a story and its characters, be it written or visual.
For me it's just like falling in ( Read more... )
