AMA Meme: Fandom Edition  
Let's have some more fun! This time, the focus is on fandom, so you can ask me anything about my fandoms (old or new) or anything about being in fandom, how I found it, what I think about it in an anthropological sense - anything. :)

Ask me anything about fandom.

It's awesome! I keep thinking of things to AMA about :D

Fandom, to me, is about finding really great people with the same interests as you. I struggle with that in 'real life' because I'm pretty introverted and quiet, and fandom provides almost an instant friendship bond with people. I mean, there are definitely people that you get along with and people that you don't, but there is a very quick connection with the people who like the same characters and the same genre of fic and writers with similar styles.

I love the friendships I've made in fandom, and I love that there are probably six or seven countries and many cities I could go to right now and have a place to stay and someone to show me around. It's really a very special form of friendship that is hard to duplicate outside of the internet.
