get_together1) The Fannish Basics
Who are you and where can we find you (preferred name/user names across your preferred platforms/where you’re most active):
Suzanne or hazel/hazel or hazelwrit almost everywhere/most active on twitter, by a long long way
Are you a reader, a writer, an artist, a vidder, a lurker, all of the above, or something else entirely:
Reader and writer
Wax lyrical about your current fandoms and OTPs:
Fuck, okay. In the last seven days I've read Steve/Bucky, Steve/Tony, Steve/Darcy, Bucky/Darcy, Steve/Bucky/Darcy, Clint/Darcy, Bruce/Darcy, Clint/Bruce, Patrick Kane/Jonathan Toews, and some other shit I can't remember. I think this probably means that my current main fandom is Marvel, goddamn you all.
Reminisce with one perfect crystal emo tear for the ship that sank or the fandom that finally faded away:
Oh hell. There's basically nothing I won't come back to, given enough time and boredom on my hands. I'm kind of sad my writing mojo went walkabouts this year though; the couple of years previous were a lot of fun.
Any squicks or kinks (be clear which is which, *g*):
Squicks include (but are not limited to): noncon, dubcon, infidelity, abuse, crying, long emotional declarations of devotion and eternal love.
Kinks include (but are not limited to): A/B/O, knotting, people who like one another, people who learn to like one another through the magic of repeated genital contact, banter, house renovations.
Fannish highlight of your year:
fat august, get__together, Twitter Pun* Times
Favourite new show/movie/comic/source text since last year:
Orphan Black, by a country mile (which is a very long way).
Favourite AO3/tumblr/twitter tag:
#lawschoolruinslives #fataugust
Where do you do the bulk of your fannish interaction? Is there a hotbed of awesome out there that someone might be missing out on? Any specific comms or tumblrs or rec sites or tags we should be following?
Twitter. It's also where I do the bulk of my complaining about having to get out of bed.
Are you taking part in Yuletide or Festivids this year? Are there any other fantastic exchanges we should all know about?
YULETIDE oh it is so fantastic.
2) The G/T Advanced Section
How many g/t’s have you been to?
I think this will be my fifth or sixth.
How did you hear about your very first one/from whom/whose lj flist were you on?
During—or shortly after—a Wellington fannish meetup with astolat, which was incidentally the first time I met arysteia or china_shop
Have you ever done a presentation at g/t? What was it? (Especially if it was in Year 1, 2, or 3, for which records are slightly murky.)
Do the vidshows last year count?
Best g/t memory ever (or that you can remember right this minute):
The crowd of angry fannish women staring at those two ladies who tried to kick us out of the hall last year because one of their kids was having a birthday party or something and they had the organisational/planning skills of rhubarb.
Thoughts on how Fandom (capital F deliberate) has changed over the last decade:
It feels like it's gotten more scattered. I think there's also a good deal more openness about queerness, which I like.
Thoughts on how fandom (your more personal experience of it) has changed over the last decade:
Um. A few years ago I really pushed myself to start talking to strangers and writing fic, and it's been one of the best decisions I've made: tiring, but incredibly rewarding. Awww, feelings.
If you’re one of our Venerated Foremothers (ie have stories to tell that pre-date the ark, or at least the internet) please share:
Alas, I am not and do not.
Any other comments worthy of being preserved for posterity in this banner year:
We Must Never Go Back To Hummingbird: a tale of cocktails and regret.
* Or, a Play on Words.
