Hi, fellow Scandinavian here. Hope you don't mind my intrusion. :) Would you like to discuss fandom in Scandinavian or do you have Scandinavian fanworks to share? Perhaps you'd consider joining us over at scandafandom?
We are many Scandinavians here on LJ, but we almost all post and comment in English. I'm contacting you to try to gather us in a strong and lively Scandinavian speaking milieu, where we can get beta readers for fanfics in our mother tongue, squee over Scandinavian events, fanworks and cons (not just stare in envy at our American friends' posts from AWA...) and so on. You can talk about all kinds of fandom related topics at scandafandom, as long as you post in a Scandinavian language. See you there? (Lurking is also perfectly okay!)
(How I found you: I searched for Scandinavian journals with recent updates. I then had a look at your profile and journal, saw that you were active in fandom and thought that you would possibly be open for an invitation. I hope I wasn't totally amiss. :)
Sure. I'll put the community on my watch list for now, but might join in properly later on.
Having joined the English-speaking world of fandoms at age 13 (and thus owing it a considerable portion of my English vocabulary), I truthfully find it hard to express myself eloquently on the subject in any other language. However, I'll give it a shot. Beta-ing Norwegian fanfic would be my pleasure, if you ever find yourself in need of another pair of eyes.
As well as fantasy books in general, which you also list:)
Oh, erm... I'm never on Skype and I'm rather selective about who I add on Facebook. Given that we've only just "met", I hope you won't be offended if I don't add you back (at the present time, at least).
