Snowflake Challenge #9 - Firsts and Faves (self recs)

Ten Years ago, I was definitely a fan, but I was not a member of FANDOM. I entered slowly when I was in a hard place emotionally, physically,and financially. I had watched the TV show Sherlock and I really liked it. I started a personal blog, joined tumblr, and a few month’s later, I had written my first fanfic. I became part of a community. After one of the purges on FanFiction,net, I started moving copies of my fic over to the newly formed Archive of our own.

Fandom urged me to really stretch myself and become incredibly creative. I went from a homebody afraid that someone might suspect that I read fanfiction, to creating blogs, fan videos, fan fiction, podfic,podcasts, and even to maintaining the Snowflake Challenge Community on Pillowfort!When I look back at the last decade, I am amazed at all the first that I have done since joining fandom. Because of it and you, I have grown into someone I never imagined that I could be, all for the love of fanworks.Thank you all for joining me in that love. Please enjoy some of my firsts and faves!
