A nice long winded way to say I'm back having inevitably swung back in fandom orbit once more (to be honest, I never really leave). It's really good to see activity on DW again (and even a little on LJ) and I feel invigorated by the thought of being able to talk about things again. The last couple of years have been a strange old time, but I haven't really changed. I still care a little bit too much about SPN, and a whole lot extra about old men in icy boats.

Things I like apart from fic and talking about fic and fandom in general. Books. Lots of books. I made my target of 150 books on Goodreads this year, and I'm really keen on an idea I've been batting about for a long time of a review a week of my top one hundred books.

Since there's a bunch of new people, I'm going to drop an alphabetical list of a sample of the fandoms I have been in to the extent of writing fic about just so I can give a taste of the things I do like, even if I don't post about them. 

Aubrey-Maturin novels, Brideshead Revisited, Chocolat, Dark is Rising, Equilibrium, Ginger Snaps, Generation Kill, Iliad, Les Miserables, Little Women, L.M. Montgomery novels, Lord of the Rings, Mary Renault novels, Pacific Rim, RocknRolla, Rosemary Sutcliff novels, Skins, Supernatural, Supernatural RPF, The Fast and Furious, The Professionals, The Tripods.

I'm looking forward to doing...and completing the Snowflake challenge this year. A good place to start, where I once left off.

I'd say "it went," hehe. Hope your usual holiday exchanges go well! I just had one pisser of an end of year in terms of stress so I kinda tapped out of a lot of stuff.

It's so great to see you around again! I've moved on pretty thoroughly from SPN at this point, but I still have fond memories of the fandom and the people in it, including you. <3

Have you any interest whatsoever in the MCU? Because speaking of Montgomery, I have a Thor/Jotun!Loki The Blue Castle AU to rec you. Yes, really.

The fic is this one, and it is DELIGHTFUL. I was regularly in awe of how it fit the MCU into the Blue Castle's plot beats. :D

I'm doing well! It's been a hectic couple of years here in the US, politically, so that's been kind of the driving force in my life. Fannishly I'm sneaking slowly into MCU fandom (although I run a discord server and a DW comm now, so maybe I should give up the pretense of "sneaking") and still watching hockey games, so that's where I'm at at this point. :)
