Challenge #2
In your own space, talk about your fannish history.
When I first became a member of LiveJournal, I mostly blog about what was going on in my life and taking silly little quizzes. I was reading the Harry Potter series at the time and found myself looking into communities about Harry Potter. I emerged myself into the world of fanfiction and the Harry Potter fandom as a reader.
Sadly, I took a break from the site and was not using it as often and returned after a few years. I realized the authors I liked and read for Harry Potter were now writing about the tv show Supernatural. I loved the show from the get-go and started reading all the stories in the SPN fandom. For a long while, I just read the wonderful stories and started making friends by commenting on their stories. A friend of mine encouraged me to give creative writing a try and see what happens. I did and I have improved over time, but I still have a lot to learn. I’m grateful to all the betas I’ve used to help my stories get better and I’m sorry that it took until now for me to even understand what you were saying each and every time. My goal will always be to improve my writing skills and to always post no matter what. To write what you know and what makes you happy. I’m hoping to give some new things a try. I’ve gone to conventions and met other fans of the show and even meet a handful of friends from LJ at some conventions along the way. These friendships have helped show me who I am without ever knowing I needed it in my life. Thank you!!!
