Is there anybody out there?

Feb 06, 2016 11:42

Every so often I pop back to LJ, because I loved it so much back in the day, to see what's going on. My latest obsession: Supernatural. And I mean SERIOUS compulsive fic-writing obsession. Which is the best kind, obviously. ;)

So...just wondering if there's anyone on my flist who's a SPN fan?

I miss the good old days when there were vibrant communities. LJ is such a good platform for conversations. FB is OK for a bit of a chat, but not for anything more than that. I'm not a fan of twitter and don't do things like tumblr or anything else.

It would be nice if we could get the band back together!

But also, I think that the people I knew on my flist have mostly fragmented into such a range of fandoms. But if they all still used LJ, it would be a lot better!

It's Sherlock for me, these days (just discovered it last November, lol), though no writing, just enjoying fic.

Good to know you're still out there and having fun with fandom!

Oh I love Sherlock! I wrote some fic for that too, a few years ago. It's posted over at AO3.

What did you think of the recent Christmas special?

Read all your Sherlock fics and they are just brilliant! As for the Christmas special, I love it, the perfect gift for all the Sherlock fans out there (though I'm not sure what someone unfamiliar with Seasons 1-3 would make of it).

Wow, it's been a long time since the Pirates of the Caribbean days ;-)

I was never quite so inspired to write fanfic once the sequels came out...

Well, hey there! SPN does still have a bit of a fandom presence on LJ, though afaik it skews more toward Sam/Dean or Sam&Dean than Dean/Cas. Still, you could do worse than check out spn_bunker for chat -- it's a nice, friendly, wank-free comm. :)

Hello! Nice to see you here. :) Thanks for the rec, I'll definitely check out that comm - I'm looking for a place to talk SPN. I only started watching it back in August, so I have years of fandom to make up for and most of my fandom friends aren't really into the show.

As I understand it the Dean/Cas fandom is mostly on Tumblr, which is... Well, I do look at it sometimes but I don't really get how you have a conversation on Tumblr, and some of the stuff on there is a little crazy. I think LJ is a way better forum for fandom, but I guess people vote with their feet. A shame, though, because I used to live on LJ a few years ago. I'll have to go hunting and see what else I can find!

Well, I am still here in my lonely Sparrabeth corner.... LOL! Man I gotta tell you how lonely THAT is.........dead as a door nail, so I play in my cofin solo... LOL. Ever since Florencia7 left, it is just a few of us around. I finally went over to TUMBLR, but people do not read there, only into graphics from what I can tell.

Pop by to say hello! Miss you all!

I am still OrionRedStar here, and OrionRedStarr @ Tumblr.......

Take care, Sally...let me know if you got published again.....so cool!
