Fandom About Me

Okay folkx, this is the fannish side of things. This is probably what you're here for first and foremost, the about me post is just putting a face on things as it were.


Where am I from Social media wise?: Originally I started on livejournal, migrated here during the at least one social media melt down when this place kicked off in 2009 or 08? I was part of one of the original beta sets but the communities were so tiny and I didn't know how to break in properly so I mostly lingered on Lj while I waited for dreamwidth and tumblr to settle on where fandom was going. I've kept the same name for all three places and it's kind of stuck. Even with me trying to make another name jump to Backshiftwriter which doesn't really stick as anything other than an email but is my main handle for Twitter and IG.


// Twitter // Instagram // Tumblr // AO3 Author Tag


Fandoms I'm involved in: MCU, specifically the relationships between Tony, Steve, and Bucky. I'm hoping to get into the comics a bit more in the new year and 616 canon, but for now it's mostly the movies. I used to write for Hobbit, Star Trek Reboot and Supernatural, you'll find my old fics on my AO3 link above.

Media I'm actively consuming/adoring right now

What kind of Fandom Content are you going to see here: Fic or headcanons on occasion for MCU. I can write quickly but I have learned that I need to finish what I write before I begin posting. I cannot separate the worth of my piece based on the comments/kudos so unless the engagement is there I tend to torpedo my drive. To counteract this I try to publish complete fics or one shots when I am writing so I don't have to disappoint people in WIP hell, or allow my shortcomings to dictate my enjoyment of writing.


For things I'm not actively in fandom about but have Thoughts™ on I will likely post some meta/commentary on occasionally. Sometimes I will liveblog bits and pieces of what I'm watching if I think about it at the time -- honestly I'm terrible about this but if I'm emotionally compromised there might be some yelling.

Commenting and friending Policies: I don't really have one, I tend to follow back those who follow me and I'm always curious and interested in what's going on my reading page and in your lives. Feel free to drop me a line on any post. I am hoping to get more involved in dreamwidth and actively engage in fandom/social journaling again. Tumblr made things quite easy and passive so this has required relearning the old ways of doing things from the lj days.
