1. Current fandoms: Good lord, are you prepared for the answer? lol... Current Reading Fandoms are: QAF (UK & US), The X-Files, The Sentinel, Anita Blake, Once A Thief, From Eroica With Love, La Femme Nikita, Highlander (I named my dog after Methos...lol), Buffy/Angel (Spike - THUD), Forever Knight, OZ, Star Trek: TNG and some Voyager, Pirates of the Caribbean, Sherlock Homes, RareSlash, MovieSlash (If I like the movie...), Due South, Ai No Kusabi and Velvet Goldmine. Fandoms I've written in - QAF (UK & US), From Eroica With Love and La Femme Nikita.
2. Shows I love but don't read fic in: Uhmm, pretty much if I love it, I'll read it. Alot...lol.
3. First fandom ever: Reading? The X-Files, without doubt. It hooked me good, and I'm still a Mulder/Skinner hound. Plus, reading X-Files fics was indirectly responsible for me writing my first fic - ironically in another fandom. Thanks to Xanthe's encouragement. First Fandom Fic? Queer As Folk, UK.
4. My most recent fandoms: It's a kind of toe-dipping technique, really. Ha... If I see something that intrigues me, I'll give it a go. Odds are, I'll stay with it for awhile, then go on to other things, then after time I'll revisit it and try to find all the goodies I missed in the mean time. There are a lot of fandoms in which very few folks continue to write after the first wave of newness wears off, or after the show finishes airing...lol. So I'll read the odd fic in old favorite fandoms / pairings when I find them. But there are fandoms that I have and will continue reading allllll the damn time...lol. See No. 5 for details...
5. Five fandoms that mean a lot to you: The UK QAF fandom, because I was there long before alot of folks...lol, and it was fucking brilliant all the way around. It's also helped bring me love and friendship, and a chance to see the world a little more than I ever thought I would. The US QAF fandom because I'm so deeply involved in all aspects - writing, betaing, recapping, archiving and moderating. I'm there for the long haul, even in times of doubt. The X-Files, because it was the first. And because of the massive talents that leave me in awe every time I revisit old favorites. (Btw - how could I not choose this as a favorite fandom when my internet handle is "Fox" spelled backwards...lol.) And I also adore the Sentinel and Highlander fandoms - I am fasinated by the various dynamics of my chosen pairings in both, and the fantastical additions like hightened senses, and immortality.
