Excerpts

[I've been writing fanfiction for] just over five years (I think I posted my first fic in March or April of 2002). I knew about fanfic before that, but just wasn't interested in it... I'm participating in other fandoms right now. :D I was monofannish with my first fandom, Vampire Chronicles, but after a year I went multifannish and have never looked back. I've written fic in twenty different FPF fandoms, as well as LotRiPS, Jude Law/Ewan McGregor RPS, and various other RPF pairings. I also spent three years or so heavily active in Digimon fandom, but I was never into fanfic.

[I enjoy SGA fandom because] it's large and active, but fairly centralised. I've written quite a bit of HP fic as well, and participated in fests, but I find it hard to really feel a part of the fandom because it's so fractured. The one thing I do miss about HP in SGA is the love for other pairings. I like John/Rodney, obviously, or I wouldn't be taking place in this fest, but it's a shock coming from a fandom where there are multiple popular pairings to one where there's one big one and all the others are teensy tiny, even if they're with the main characters.
