About Me: I'm a rather silly guy, I'd say; just your local disabled queer with a tendency to talk a lot! I consider myself an artist, writer, and a self-defined "general enthusiast". A fandom geek who uses "I am cringe, but I am free" as my personal life's motto, so expect accordingly!
About My Journal: My journal is public, and I don't make locked posts. I journal about my fandoms, my interests, and my personal life! I additionally post all of my writing here. If you're looking for my fannish writing specifically, it's all crossposted to fairyfic. I'm going to be posting a lot about Rough Draft Month (an alternative to NaNoWriMo) throughout November!

What I Write: I write fanfiction, meta, and essays on topics that interest me! In terms of fanfic, I consider myself someone who specializes in gen and M/M works, with themes of queerness, disability and mental health.
What I Don't Write: I don't write any original fiction at the moment, but I may try my hands at it someday! I'm also far too private to post smut publicly.

What I Read: Basically, the same stuff that I write! And I also love digging my teeth into some poetry.
What I Don't Read: Fiction which has pedophilic and incestuous relationships depicted positively are a 'no' for me. I'm also, again, far too private to interact with smut publicly.

About me: I've been online since I was a young weirdo, and now I have become an elder weirdo. I'm one of the folks who got my start over on Livejournal, actually, and then had to emigrate when it went to shit. I've had a Dreamwidth ever since. Even though I'll float around to other sites for a while, this is the stable foundation of my internet presence and I will try (keyword: try) to copy the posts and things that matter most to me over here for posterity.

I'm in Fandom, capital F, because even when I'm not in a particular fandom, I am still hanging out with people who are, participating in the culture and community and all that. At the moment, I am between fandoms, unless you count friends' original characters and settings (the ultimate small fandoms!). Although truthfully I almost never completely fall out of them. Perennial favorites include Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes, Devil May Cry, Farscape, Star Trek, Star Wars (I mostly lurk the original series although some of the recent series have given me the tingle), Coldfire Trilogy, Trigun, Hannibal, Transformers... An incomplete list.

I get into book fandoms a lot. I am also a huge fan of some things I'm not in fandom about, such as Lord of the Rings, Quantum Leap, Babylon 5, My Hero Academia, Demon Slayer and a wide variety of other TV shows and anime and yet more books and comics.

And gardening, and birds. Especially parrots. I have a box of bulbs that just arrived that needs planting this weekend. Also libraries, and social media. I believe in preserving culture for the future, but also that people deserve control of their own information. I believe in a decentralized internet and I actively support small and startup platforms like Dreamwidth, Pillowfort and Neocities, the indieweb and federation.

About My Journal: Fandom, personal life, gardening, birds, whatever is on my mind. Somehow recently not my writing. I have been writing! I have a whole bunch of short stories I could and should AND WILL copy over here. Any minute now.

I do vanish for fairly long periods sometimes, when I get distracted by shinies elsewhere. But I come back eventually.

What I Write: Historically, a lot of fanfiction. Lately I've been working more on my own original stories, though. Usually queer/genderqueer. I like fantasy, scifi and horror--that speculative fiction goodness. I write sex (often weird), and violence, sometimes together, and I like getting deep into my characters' heads and exploring their inner worlds and the dark corners of them and their worlds. The monsters scratching at the door of the mental basement. Also sometimes monsters outside the characters' heads. And then sometimes I write fluffy cute stuff. Mostly short, though. God I want to finish a novel but I can't seem to get past about 12k words.

What I Don't Write: Novels, apparently. Coffee shop AUs. Normal life or anything that makes me dwell too much on the actual world we have, because I live here full time as it is.

What I Read: A lot of the same things I write. And novels. I have a stack of nonfiction I keep meaning to break into and getting distracted from but conceptually I do enjoy a good book about interesting facets of history, how birds think, the secrets of soil, black holes, that kind of thing.

What I Don't Read: A lot of the same things I don't write. And my TBR pile I GUESS.

Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: Sometimes! I am, not to toot my own horn, a pretty kickass beta reader, but in recent times I haven't had the spoons for it very much. Hopefully I'll get them back because I find it a wonderful opportunity for friendship and mutual growth.

miscellanium

Name: miscellanium, misc or misce for short

Age: over 30

Location: usa, central time

About Me: historian & archivist stuck in a dead-end job (for the time being) so i like to do what i can to keep my wits sharp, and that includes writing. i've been writing since i was in elementary school (shitty pokemon fanfiction on my district-provided emate during class, lol) and look forward to developing further while also working to rediscover the creative joy and freedom of those days.

About My Journal: i try to post approximately once a week or every two weeks. mostly media discussion, fannish or otherwise, with a smattering of semi-personal talk. at the moment i do not have any friends-only entries. i do have a community for only posting creative work, if you'd rather follow

angelfeast, but it's updated sporadically.

What I Write: fanfiction and original fiction both. i think both can be of equal artistic merit and i am not fond of people who devalue fanfiction as somehow automatically less creative.
i dabble in poetry from time to time but my focus is on prose. my usual approach could probably be described as more on the "literary" side of things, since my emphasis tends to be on characters' interiority, though i can and do write silly stories and kinky porn uwu

What I Don't Write: nonfiction (unless it's academic research)

What I Read: i can enjoy just about any genre provided the prose and characters appeal to me. highbrow, lowbrow, shameless porn, it's all good. i do have a strong preference for trans/queer characters.

What I Don't Read: true crime is really my only hard line. i don't seek out non-porn m/f or f/f stuff on my own, though i won't recoil if asked to read it as long as it doesn't have a squick of mine. i enjoy reading nonfiction in general but if it's not historical then it needs to be recommended to me.

Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: for sure! i don't mind reading for spelling/grammar or providing feedback, though i can't promise a quick turnaround since i do work full-time. nothing wildly over 10k, please. i may be a fast reader but i'm not that fast, lol.

Name: Tarlan (

tarlanx)

Location: UK

About Me: I've been a fan of TV and movies for as long as I can recall. I am a multi-fandom writer with a long list of fandoms.

About My Journal: Publicly, I post regular updates on fandom related stuff I am working on, including any updates to my actor websites. I play the odd meme and quiz game, and I share any art/graphics I create plus links to my fiction, which is all hosted on AO3. Privately, I have the rare rant on the unfairness of life and have been known to use the occasional swear word ;D

What I Write: I am a M/M slash fandom writer and most of my stories are PG-PG13 rated - but there are notable exceptions! Current favorites are Joe/Nicky in The Old Guard and Jack/Nathan in Eureka but I have a soft spot for The Magnificent Seven (TV), the Riddick Movies, the Jurassic Park Movies, The X-Files, and disaster movies of all kinds as well as numerous SF and 'horror' (zombies, vampires, werewolves etc) TV shows and movies :)

I'm often tempted to write stories based on the characters from other works portrayed by my favorite actors, including crossovers, AUs, and fusions.

What I Don't Write: I don't tend to write HET or kink

What I Read: I read mostly fanfiction off AO3, but occasionally I work my way through horror books. I have read a number of the Classics and have many more books on my shelf and on my Kindle to read one day!

What I Don't Read: Hmmm.... I'm happy to give anything a read but I'm not really into non-fiction unless it is Physics/Space related.

Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: Sadly I rarely have the time as I am always so busy on my own projects but I could for works under 5k.

stefanie_bean

Name: Stef
Age: Entering crone-dom
Country: USA

I'm an LJ refugee nostalgic for the "old ways" before FB, tumblr, twitter etc.

Writing interests: LOST, Phantom of the Opera, and original fic.

What I write: Mostly romance (longfic), with some gen (mostly one-shots.)

Most postings: My fanfic, plus how-the-sausage-is-made notes about same.

More: I'm open to serious discussion about writing: narrative structures, literary themes & devices, tropes, and my favorite: mythological and religious influences in fiction. Most of what I do online is write, or talk about writing.

kirasha

Name: Kirasha or JL
Age: 35+

About Me: I hate "about me" things. lol I never know what to write. I'm heading into what society would call middle age and I call "Holy Cow! I made it!" But, I neither look, nor act like it. I'm still an eclectic geek and nerd at heart and fly those banners proudly. I love all things papercrafting and mixed media art. I have a love affair with words, pens, and notebooks. My reputation at the office is one of pure organization, although you'd never know it to look at my house.

About My Journal: I am a casual journaler and commenter. I post when I have the time and inclination. Generally, if I don't feel I have something to add to a conversation other than "me too!", I won't comment. (The exception being hugs when needed.) My journal here is mostly for fannish things and personal things. Topics can everywhere from Marvel to planners to privacy/security to nature-based faiths to what my Second Life avatar is wearing this week.

What I Write: For a living, I write technical documentation and support content. For fun, I write fiction, both fan and original, mostly in some sub-genre of speculative fiction or romance or both.

What I Don't Write: Pregnancy stories, teenage main characters, a variety of hardcore kinks, PWP

What I Read: If it has words, I'll generally give it a shot. But, I tend to read what I write most often: science fiction, fantasy, supernatural, romance, various non-fiction works depending on what I'm researching at the moment. I do a lot of random/just because research. So, the topics really can run the gamut.

What I Don't Read: Badly out of character fanfiction or any of the subjects I don't write.

Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: I do this as part of my job, actually, as well as occasionally beta-reading for fests.

Current Mood: optimistic

raptureofthemoon

Name: Lindsey

Age: 31

Location: Southeastern US

About Me: Jill of all trades, mistress of some? Four cats. Married. Work part time at a college. Going to grad school in the fall. Left leaning feminist. Cook, baker, candlestick maker (okay, I haven't tried that yet). I'm trying to teach myself guitar. I'm a gamer (I don't do MMOs). I have too many hobbies and distractions and that leads to my being a procrastinator. Currently mildly obsessed with: Supernatural, Dishonored, Fallout: New Vegas, Skyrim.

About My Journal: I've been absent for a while, because I live on a variety of social media. I grew upon Livejournal and moved over to DW about the time I stopped blogging quite as much. But I've recently consolidated my main and fanfiction journals, so I'll probably be posting more often.

What I Write: What I like. Dark fantasy, urban fantasy, with the occasional jaunt into other genres (particularly horror, erotica). I write original fiction as well as fanfiction (I'm a slasher and a shipper but no, I don't do shipwar bull). My original fiction (that I share) mostly ends up on blogger (I link to it).

What I Don't Write: Westerns. Um...crime? General fiction or "literary." (Sometimes this changes.)

What I Read: A little bit of everything. Fantasy, horror, non-fiction, literature classics.

What I Don't Read: Westerns, crime/legal/thriller type stuff, high fantasy. (Sometimes this changes.)

Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: If I have time (so, the shorter the work the more likely I can give you an assist). My undergrad is in English. But don't let that freak you out. I'm not going to smack you with a ruler if you misspell something and I break the rules of grammar often.

perfectworry

Name: Frances J., or Meep

Age: 20something

Location: Tokyo, Japan

About Me: I'm a twentysomething queerish girlwoman expatriate librarian-at-arms. I eat books and bleed poetry.
… er, that's what it says on the Twitter account that I admit to at work, but I'm writing this from a mattress on the floor and eating an ice cream in my pajamas on a Friday evening, in between shuffling my new tarot cards and watching trashy movies. (The Twitter account I don't admit to at work is

transpacifique.)

About My Journal: This is where I post any writing worth sharing. (If you're on LJ, my "journal"/diary is

meepalicious.)

What I Write: I write stories for my friends. I love to co-write or share a 'verse and characters, so most of my recent work is collaborative stuff or my half of a story, or my characters' side of something. I like writing about ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances, or extraordinary people trying to live ordinary lives. I like fantasy (high and, especially, urban), historical, contemporary and, yes, romance. I like to write underrepresented queer romances; expect to see a lot of queer women, ménages à trois, gender nonconforming and/or asexual characters.
I'm an active participant in

writerverse, so many of my stories are challenge responses. Sometimes I dabble in

rainbowfic.
I'm starting to dabble in poetry and creative nonfiction.

What I Don't Write: I don't write horror, smut, or hard sci-fi.

What I Read: I'm a children's librarian, so I read a lot of kidlit. Online, I'll read most anything, except for what I don't. (See below.) I like to read (and write) about happy, stable queer relationships, the kind of people I might like to be friends with if I met them, and fuzzy warm feelings.

What I Don't Read: I don't read what I don't write, but I might make an exception for hard sci-fi.

Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: Sure! I'm a bit rusty, but I used to spend hours a day copy and content editing for friends online. I would be happy to be a beta reader and critique partner; that's actually what I'm here for. I mean, I hope we will be friends, but I'd love to meet some creative collaborators!

Current Mood: hopeful

wordstitch

Name: Crystal

Age: 25

Location: USA

About Me: I've wanted to write ever since I was young but never had the guts to pursue it right out of school. I went into accounting instead, and spent three miserable years in public accounting before I realized enough was enough. Now I work from home as a bookkeeper and spend my spare time thinking about writing and not actually writing very much XD This blog, separate from my fandom blog, is my desperate attempt to have a writing life that does not revolve around Harry Potter characters. In my spare time, when not agonizing over my writing, I like to sew, listen to audio books, and write people typewritten letters.

About My Journal: As mentioned above, my journal is an effort to focus on writing. I post little snippets of original fic, little snippets of fanfic that I don't want the general fandom to see, musings about the writing process, and basically any other thoughts I have in regards to writing. There will be lists of things to remember about characters, brainstorms for plot, and ramblings about random things. I'm trying to read more, so I'll probably write about books that I read, as well.

What I Write: Right now, mostly slash fanfiction. In terms of original fiction, I'd like to write romance, specifically gay or lesbian romance. I'd like to write fantasy as well. I'm interested in futuristic fantasy and alternate universe historical fantasies. I like queer characters. I also like erotica, so I'll probably have some of that in any story I write.

What I Don't Write: I don't think I'd be particularly good at mysteries, and I'm a bit too intimidated by sci-fi, though I think I will dabble a little bit in that, if there are fantasy elements as well. I don't write non-fiction, either.

What I Read: Not so much, lately. But I do plan to read more, now that I have time. I read a lot of slash fanfiction from HP fandom. I re-read a lot of old things I like, mostly. I'm a big fan of Georgette Heyer's regency era romances. I like Neil Gaiman, Tamora Pierce, Jane Austen, Italo Calvino, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and Dorothy Sayers. I read manga, as well. My favorite manga are, in no particular order: From Eroica With Love, Yotsuba&, Saiyuki, anything by Fumi Yoshinaga or Naono Bohra, Wandering Son, Viewfinder, Petshop of Horrors, Aoi Hana. I collect writing books, and I read those, as well.

What I Don't Read: Really fluffy fanfiction, Stephanie Meyers, E.L. James, Harlequin-esque romances.

Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: I could edit for basic spelling & grammar, and maybe make suggestions about structure and pacing. I'd be happy to help edit anyone's original fic, or fanfiction if I'm familiar with the fandom =)
