I was feeling that way until I found the Marvel/Avengers fandom. They are fun and welcoming (especially the Darcy Lewis fans, she's the sidekick of the love interest on Thor). I am having so much fun with it, more than I have since the Buffy and Harry Potter fandoms of old.

I hope you find the right one for you, anon!

*new Avengers fan fistbump*

OP

[(Anonymous)]

Ah, I used to be in the Avengers fandom way before the movie came out but I eventually lost interest about it. I still get updates about it now and then thanks to all the new fans like you, but eh, I guess I moved on.

Glad you found your place :)

[brightblueink]

Oof, I know that feel. I do have a "main" fandom taking up the majority of my passion but it's pretty dead, and although I'm still getting into new stuff I'm having a hard time getting into fandom proper these days? I don't know if it's that the fandoms I'm interested in attract a younger crowd now that I'm getting older or what, but I'm just not as excited about finding a fandom group to hang out with as I used to be.

[(Anonymous)]

hm.. I can totally understand that!! No fics? That's really sad! Which fandom is it? (if I'm allowed to ask)

OP

[(Anonymous)]

I had a precise pairing when I submitted this secret, but I can't remember which one because there are just so many (and I'm a huge derp).

A few from Hetalia, some from comics and books...It's just a frustration you get used to.

[elaminator]

I go through phases like this. Right now I don't really have a main fandom, I just browse tumblr and occasionally read a fanfic or two. Sadly, most of the series I'm interested in at the moment don't have big or active fandoms, and if there is a fandom most the material doesn't suit my tastes. But it happens. Here's to finding a new fandom of your dreams!

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, it happens to me, too. Usually I just wait until something else catches my interest,and so far there's always been 'something else'.

[otakugal15]

I've been feeling that way for sometime, though SWTOR has rekindled some of that. Just wish the kink meme was a bit more active. :C

But outside that, yeah....super bored. Nothing has caught my interest. Not even the fandoms I love.

[blueonblue]

I think I've been 'in between' fandoms for a while. According to my history page at AO3, I've read 4 fanfics in 2012.

[dirac]

I was in a place like that for the first few months of the year. It really sucked (especially since I could've used that kind of distraction at the time) :(

Good luck finding a new one!

[badass_tiger]

Oh God, OP, that's awful. I was going through until right about last week, myself. Watching Supernatural always gives me the most awful writer's block, then I just sit there, completely indifferent to fandom developments.

Then Dean and Castiel hugged and all was right with the world. Have you tried getting into another fandom?

[superuser]

i'm in this position myself and it's lasted a long time

partially i think i'm just overworked and burnt out on fandom, but i still want to be involved in.. some sort of fandom

i sort of wish there was some place (like this lol) where fannish people just hung out without one *specific* fandom to unite them

preferably in irc chatroom form

but i'm dreamin :'{

[(Anonymous)]

Find a random active kink meme and go through the archives. That's what I do when I'm looking for a fun time.

Or, I highly recommend comment_fic community on livejournal, they have prompts every day, for all fandoms, active and long dead, or things have have never had a big fandom or a "fandom" at all.

[citrinesunset]

Aw, I can relate to this. I've been there, too. I really have to be "grabbed" by a fandom. And it just has to be a good fit. So I go through dry spells sometimes.

Hope you find a good fit soon!

[(Anonymous)]

My main fandoms are in lulls right now, and I've drifted off to a place that doesn't really have a fandom. It's weird when I get on tumblr and don't care to post or reblog anything. I have a weird irrational fear that when things pick back up in a year or so, I won't be interested or all my old fandom friends will hate me.

However, not being consumed by fandom is much, much better for my grades.

[netbug009]

I was dealing with this until recently, then ninjas happened.

My advice? Don't force yourself, OP. Get out, try some new things. Read some books. Try a new show. Eventually you'll find something else that you love and if you're truly enjoying fandom, you'll get back into it.
