Snowflake Challenge 2015: Day 12  
Day 12: In your own space, talk about what you bring to fandom. It can be something tangible, or not.

So my big thing I would say is reading, commenting, and reccing. I read a lot in a verity of pairings over a plethora of fandoms. I really do my best to comment as much as possible, and I've been especially good about that in the HP fandom. And, of course, I keep track of my favorite for reccing purposes, but really so that I can go back and reread them when I'm in the mood. Basically I try and support all of the lovely people hwo create such wonderful things that I get to experience for free as much as I can

Last year, I also started modding, with two very different fests, which was fun. I started up and am a solo mod at [livejournal.com profile] hp_crossgenfest, a prompt-based fest focusing on any-Cross Gen pairing. Contrasted with [livejournal.com profile] hd_erised, a H/D exchange fest I started co-modding this year. I'm a very organized person and I really get a lot out of planning out all the little background details of modding, so it's been cool. And people seem to enjoy the fests, so yay contribution!

And, I just recently started writing. IDK that it's really much a "contribution to fandom" but I've been enjoying it. :D

That last paragraph? I am making such a face at you right now. There might be a raspberry involved.

Yay for your contributions! Can't even remember how many times your lovely recs have made my day one way or another. (so much smut and it's AMAZING)</small)

So glad to hear that you've enjoyed my recs! I am rather partial to smut... ;)

You know, I hadn't thought of it this way at all. :D And I get to pre-read some many lovely fic, too. ;) And by lovely I mean completely filthy. ^^
