Pokes this thing.

So the last months my brains have decided that tumblr is just too stressful. Which is weird, because tumblr is how I learned to do fandom, so you'd assume I've got some built-in resistance to the madness. Apparently not. 
Or maybe it's simply that anger is exhausting, and there's so many angry people on there, that sweep me along in their angerness. It's so hard for me to not care. I just don't have the spoons.

The thing is, I've finally got my writing mojo back, and I'm really into fandom exchanges lately, so I figured, let's give this dreamwidth thing a try. Livejournal and its likes have never been part of my internet life, so it all feels brand new and shiny, even though it so very much isn't.

But I kinda like it.

I'm not entirely sure how canon specific fandom works on here, but at this point, I'm mostly into multi-fandom exchanges anyway, so I've got time to figure it out.

So that's it I think. I still need to write a Yuletide Round-up, and a Round-Up of my year in fic writiing, and then I think I'm ready for the new fandom year.

I kinda did a weird circle! My fandom life started on LiveJournal, then I discovered tumblr and was on there for a few years... and now I'm back! I still have my tumblr (though not the original one I started with) for some fandom stuff and keeping up with artists I like/

Well technically I think my first foray into fandom were message boards and forums, but I wasn't aware of the concept fandom then, let alone fanfic, so that probably doesn't count.

I never could get livejournal to work for me, but that also meant that tumblr wasn't bewildering for me, so I've been on there since 2010 (although I mass deleted a couple of times in the early days.)

I haven't deleted my tumblr either, too many fond memories, and I still hope that I'll be able to enjoy it again. I like the pretty pictures :D
