Challenge #1

Update your fandom information. Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

This year, I am (belatedly) participating in the 2024 snowflake_challenge  here on DW. 

Fandoms that I currently consume and produce works in: 

The Baby Sitters Club (main & peripheral series). I have an ongoing babysitters100 table that is found here, which I have been working on since I believe 2012? Somewhere around there. Of course, I have been involved in fandom since I was a small child. BSC (and Sweet Valley) were the first fanfictions that I wrote, even before I knew what fanfiction was. 

The Baby Sitters Club (TV 2020). I have written some stories in this universe. I have not seen the second season yet as I am in between my netflix subscriptions (how I wish that they would release it on DVD) but I am aware of the season's content. 

Harry Potter (books). I certainly don't agree with what JKR did either with the bones of a decent story or with her IRL thoughts that she insists on inflicting upon society, however, I don't see why that precludes me from taking her universe and turning it into things that she would absolutely hate. I have been reading HP fiction since around 2002/3 but only started writing this in earnest over the last couple of years. 

British Royalty RPF. I mainly write AU stories that do not coexist well with reality. The majority of my stories take place in AU versions of the 1970s-2000s. I have one story based in 2016 that I most likely will never finish.

Fandoms that I occasionally visit: 

Riverdale, Sweet Valley, Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, Glee

You will see me partake in these fandoms (and more) on occasion, especially during things like exchanges or threesentenceficathon but most likely you will not see active works of progress in many of them. The potential exceptions are Glee and Riverdale, though it is difficult to get myself excited about taking on a multi-chapter fic when I seem to be the sole person writing my pairings (FP/Alice and Finn/Quinn). 

Fandom that I can no longer write in: 

The Beatles: I wrote Paul/Linda stories in this fandom until one of my commenters wouldn't stop engaging with me on tumblr (it became an uncomfortable social experience that I couldn't gracefully extract myself from without finally just blocking her). It soured me on the entire thing and when I saw she was updating her own story I simply orphaned the works.
