Prompt 13 is Name a person that got you into a fandom. What fandom?The only thing that comes to mind is the QaF fan who had posted a Live Free or Die Hard fic that made me consider John/Matt for the first time. That led me to a movie rewatch, then to a fic comm here on LJ, and then to writing my own fic. I don't remember what fan it was, though ( Read more... )

Prompt 10 is Has LJ stopped you from joining any fandoms? If so, what ones and why?

I can't say that LJ specifically has stopped me, but the state of Supernatural fandom in general certainly stopped me from participating there. I still did things that celebrated the show, including going to an SPN convention, but there is just a level of, well, I ( Read more... )

So I'm really making an effort to be more social around these parts, and I found this old meme-type thing that I thought would keep me motivated. So nothing too exciting in this first topic, which is What is Your Current OTP?"

Even though I haven't been writing or participating in what is really a little fandom of two with me and persnickett, I do still love ( Read more... )

A couple of days ago, someone sent me a PM asking where to find a certain Die Hard fic. I accidentally deleted the message before I could respond, so I'm not sure who sent it. Sorry!

Fandom Snowflake Challenge, Day 13: Share a favorite piece of original canon (a TV episode, a song, a favourite interview, a book) and explain why you love it so much.

Ohhhh, canon. I love canon. Even the parts that I don't love - the ridiculous things like Magic Reversible Aging Drugs in Oz or the hurtful things like Justin Leaving Brian For A ( Read more... )

Fandom Snowflake, Day 12: Rec at least three fanworks that you think would make a good intro into XYZ fandom. Rec a fandom overview, a introductory picspam, stories that define and shape the fandom.

The Live Free or Die Hard fandom is amazing, okay? For a very very very teeny fandom, it has an incredible amount of talent. And honestly, I don't ( Read more... )

Fandom Snowflake Challenge, Day 10: Talk about a creator. Show us why you think they are amazing.

I wish I could. I really wish I could. But when I think someone is amazing and has true awesome talent, words fail me. I can flail and squee and scream YOU MUST READ THIS NOW 'til the cows come home, but actually explaining why someone kicks so ( Read more... )

Managed to tackle a good portion of the To Do List today. Still got the furniture switcharoo/poster hanging/putting together of two small cabinets to do, but pretty much everything else is off the list. Go me.

There's a new fic challenge called the 50 Reasons To Have Sex FicFest, based on a list seen on How I Met Your Mother. Neat idea, I think ( Read more... )
