TODAY'S SECRET POST IS BELOW THIS ONE ↓

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Name: Sierra/ Delena/ Raven
Age: 21 (Not much longer, though)
Location: Florida.
Fandoms: Venture Bros, Psychonauts, TF2, House M.D., Futurama, Bully/ Canis Canem Edit, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Superman, Smallville, Justice League International, ReBoot, Harry Potter, M*A*S*H
What in fandom interests me: Meta, characterisation, fic, art, interesting scenarios, multishipping, tropes, blah, blah, blah
What in fandom does NOT interest me: Uuuuh, ship wars, I guess. I mean, I like ships and all, but not that much, and no one ship enough to argue about it. Hm, I suppose OOC goes without saying, so I guess over-hyped BNFs.
Major Non-fandom Interests: Research, languages, Dungeons & Dragons, Tim O'Brien writings, writing fiction, childcare, and things that still rather resemble escapism, but are more accepted by the non-fandom world.
My LJ Contains Mostly: Sporadic original fic and fanfic posts, rare art posts, some blabbing about new ideas, squawking about things that make me giddy, and occasionally offline-related whining/excitement.
Other: I really can't seem to collect my thoughts to properly convey my fandom interests right now. No idea why, but yeah, I don't bite.

The Combination of M*A*S*H, interest in research, languages and Dungeons and Dragons have officially caught my attention!

Also Super Dorky English Major-y things...like what?

*Has a litany of critical essays based on her fandoms*

That's a wonderful combination to catch.

Super-dorky English-y things like, well, just what you put, incidentally: collecting critical essays for fandoms. I especially love perusing academic databases for published essays, no matter how sparse the writing may be. I'm a total Hamlet geek, so the Hamlet essay collection is my largest. Other English-dork interests include proofreading for fun and profit, proofreading for pure sport, proofreading as a reflex, burying myself under pages and piles of research and info just so my fiction can be accurate, geeking over the chance to relate classic lit parallels to my non-academic fandoms... Things like that. I love getting the chance to dweeb over critical discussions; it's part of why I find myself drawn to meta discussions.

Meta discussion is one of the major reasons I'm in fandom to begin with. I was big on doing critical essays of Death Note when the manga was still being fan translated, and it's still one of my favorite series to meta--there's so much there to sink your brain into.

And I hear you on piles of research--one of my latest research related acquisitions is 'Nanoscience and Nanotechnology: Environmental and Health Impacts' to help with a movie script I've been working on. Interesting stuff.

OH! A few other things:

Interests in fandom: GIRLSLASH. It's so damn hard to find any decent girlslash in most fandoms and that saddens me.

Other:
I'm a dorky English major who delights in English major-y things AND I'm going to be moving to central Michigan (I hope) by the end of the summer and it'd be pretty rad to meet fandom people nearby.

haha, femmeslash, seriously? We need to be friends now, I think.

OMG a Psychonauts fan! :D YESSS!

Indeed! I super adore that game.

If only the fandom was more active :/
