So!

After a decade out of fandom, when my daughter turned 10 recently I thought a little bit of self-care wouldn’t go amiss, what would I like to do, and the answer was, read some fanfic!

So I did.

And I enjoyed it. Been doing it for a few months now, enough to confidently say I’m definitely in fandom again, at least as a reader, so I thought I’d try reengaging.

Turns out I still have lj, dw, ao3 and tumblr accounts, although my twitter seems to have been purged…

I’m very aware fandom is no longer on lj or dw, and I’m likely talking to myself here, but if anyone is around and can tell me where fandom actually is these days, outside of ao3 for the fic, (seems to have maybe moved on from tumblr? Is it twitter? WTF is discord?!) that would be marvellous!

If you are around, give me a wave; I’d love to hear what’s been going on with you <3

Anyway, what I’m probs mostly going to do is just rec a lot of stuff, and I’m going to start here with the fics I specifically searched out when I thought, ok, so what shall I reread? It therefore goes without saying these are all at least a decade old! I’ll rec new stuff I’m reading later. Might try and rec on my tumblr as well. Wish me luck…

( My reintegration into fandom through ancient fic favs in: MCU, Generation Kill, Supernatural, SGA, Merlin, due South, The Professionals and MFU )

I’ll rec some of the new stuff I’ve dipped my toe into since returning later. Say hi and rec me some good stuff if you can hear me!
