Countdown to Small Gifts 1/3: Introductions

[smallgiftsmods]

Welcome, folks! Every year at small gifts, we start off the holiday season with a series of discussion posts. It's a chance to get to know other participants (or say hi to old friends), meet our readers (hi, readers! we love you!), and while away the hours before the fest begins. We'll have three topics this week, posted Monday, November 25; Wednesday, November 27; and Friday, November 29. Posting begins Sunday, December 1.

Discussion is not limited to participants! Please introduce yourself if you're a reader, too.

Today: introductions.

1) Leave a comment letting us know who you are as a fan. (Leave your Tumblr name/AO3 name as well as your DW name, if they're different.) How long have been in HP fandom? How long have you shipped R/S? Are you a reader? Writer? Artist? Crafter? Do you participate in any other parts of HP fandom? Are you active in any other fandoms right now?

2) Say hi to someone else! We're friendly around here like that.

Excellent, thank you! I was actually going to ask if you wanted to link to a short story, since unfortunately I just don't have time to tackle a novel-length fic right now. (I haven't yet read a SINGLE thing in Small Gifts OR in the other fest I love that's posting right now, argh! Things that I love and want to shower enthusiastic comments all over, but life just isn't allowing for it right now.)

Added you back on LJ too! (Though it's true that at this point I pretty much only use it to automatically mirror all my posts from Dreamwidth. And that mostly out of nostalgia, because LJ is where I started in fandom, so I just couldn't bring myself to delete it even when everyone else was switching to DW and deleting LJ.)
