Main Fandoms: Crusade, Life (the NBC show that starred Damien Lewis), Wonderfalls, Slings and Arrows, Fringe, Labyrinth, NCIS, Discworld, Covert Affairs, Firefly, The West Wing, Young Wizards, Wire in the Blood, Downton Abbey, Castle, Sherlock

Fannish Interests: consuming massive amounts of fanfic, writing fanfic in fits and starts, watching fanvids to feed my various ship obsessions. (Do you know how hard it is to find Susan/Teatime fanvids? There are like six, and I've seen them all.) More consumption than contribution, I'm afraid. Unless flailing and squealing counts as contributing, in which case I'm incredibly prolific. I also collect have a truly astonishing collection of fandom-related text icons for all occasions.

Favourite Movies: Labyrinth, Serenity, Star Wars, Repo! The Genetic Opera, Army of Darkness, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Singin' in the Rain, Legend, Dune, Much Ado About Nothing, The Princess Bride, Hogfather

Other Info: My journal is a pretty mixed bag. I talk a bit about fandom stuff, a bit about writing, a bit about my major (history) and my thesis (polygamy! complex marriage! how fringe religious groups reflected mainstream Victorian values even while they looked like they were defying them!), and a bit about personal real life stuff. My obsession with a fandom tends to be inversely related to its size and popularity, which is why Crusade is my favorite fandom and Susan/Teatime is my favorite (weird, creepy, dysfunctional) OTP. In non-fandom life I'm a lady-type person living in one of the liberal bastions of North Carolina, where I share a home with my parents and our three cats. I'm a feminist, a liberal, agnostic with atheist leanings, geeky (obviously), and I speak snark fluently, having learned it in the cradle.
