Yep, still alive - though not in fandom terms. A month ago I deleted my fannish Twitter and Tumblr accounts, and yeah, I was "done with everything" before and always came back. This time, though, I haven't really regretted pressing the button once. I still have a handful of contacts I treasure, but aside from them I spend my time writing like a ( Read more... )

I can't believe that I actually remembered my LJ log in as it's been over 3 years since I've been on here. I got the email notification that you had updated your journal so I knew my account was still active.

I too have lost those fannish feelings, but I do miss the sense of community that fandom brought to places like LJ & tumblr.

Let me know if you find any interesting groups or communities here.....or maybe we could start a new one 😊

Same here. I do have a Twitter and Tumblr for my author persona, but so far it's mostly consumerism there, at least on the Tumblr front - I don't follow a single fandom account there, and you wouldn't believe how refreshing that is. Twitter, I use a bit for building professional relationships, the kind that "you never know when they'll come in handy". It's really too bad that I won't be able to pimp these books to my Tiva readers. Certain people would go out of their way to leave negative reviews on the books everywhere, just to spoil the fun (and income ( ... )

I sadly agree - it's a shame that you can't share your new work here because there are those who would go out of their way to hurt your efforts out of spite.

I've missed so much! I remember when I use to be on here everyday to see what wonderful things you had posted. I had realized why I hadn't seen you on twitter for a long time, and this is the reason. I can't wait to get back into reading your writing, but sadly, today isn't the day. I have a portfolio to edit and print off before a career conference this weekend. Maybe one day, when I don't have my life pulling me down by my hair, I'll finally be able to read your amazing stories and blog.

Funny thing is, I just got a Tumblr blog just in January, but it's my "professional" design blog for latest trends and to share my work.

I do have a tumblr and twitter for my author persona, but so far I'm not willing to share my pen name. I picked up too many assholes in NCIS fandom who would gleefully buy the books on Amazon just so they can leave a verified nasty review.
