One last note

I'm now officially without an active fandom. I left Harry behind a few years before the active canon ended, Twilight's active canon concluded with the end of the foreign premieres today.

I was never a part of the Hunger Games fandom, though I'm still looking forward to the movies. If there was an active fandom for The Host, or the Dark Hunters, or Armstrong's Darkest Powers series, I've never found them.

I don't see many things being pimped around much because their aren't many comms on DW and I don't see many on my flist there talking about fandoms. LJ used to be the place to find that stuff, but I've notice a lot of LJ peel-off in the last two years or so.

This makes me kind of sad. Especially since Goodreads is a terrifically crap place to talk about books.

I haven't been an active part of 'a fandom' for years now and have to say that in some ways it's nice - I get to be part of wider Fandom without the nonsense of the fandoms themselves... but I do miss a lot that way. I think it's why I tend to use FB to keep in contact with people.

It's ten years since I joined HP fandom and found youse guys. I stayed in fandom because of youse guys and I'm glad I still keep in (some) contact with the people I got along best with... but there's nothing like being in active fandom. That's what all those writers and commentators don't get when they try to write about us.

And you never know what's round the corner!
