I consider my DW to be my primary account, but I'm crossposting between here and my LJ (fish_echo) and I read both flists. Ideally, I'd like to migrate to DW, but since a good portion of my flist seems firmly established on LJ, I will probably continue to maintain the two journals for the foreseeable. (My IJ (fish_echo) is likely to continue to remain neglected.)

[I am at AOOO as Fish_Echo]. I cross-post to AOOO all my fic that doesn't already have a specific home. ([My masterlist] will always have links to all my fannish works.)


====Things that I do====

• fish_recs is my recs comm. I post my recs solely there (and then make a post here saying 'go look at them'). I'll be migrating them to DW once they have the ability to migrate comms, but in the meantime there is a dreamwidth feed at fish_recs_feed. I will keep some way for LJ'ers to follow the recs after I migrate.
• I mod the comm bettinas_fandom which is for the fandom of [A thousand ways to please a husband with Bettina's best recipes].
• I'm a volunteer at the utterly awesome [audiofic archive], which means that I love it lots and things that I love tend to be things I love to talk about-- so if you have any questions about the archive, please do!
• I'm the designated audiofic archivist for Mythbusters podfic and a designated co-archivist for Merlin (BBC) podfic.
• I'm an assistant mod at merlinpodfic. Well, according to the comm's profile page, I'm the sidekick-- and yeah, I've started brainstorming an appropriate superhero-style cape. :P

I'm still building up this account, so please pardon the sawdust. (Yes, it's been a while, but somehow I never really remember to update my profile.)

This started out as a fannish-only journal and whilst fandom-related things remain a major topic of it, sometimes I'll end up discussing knitting or cooking or social meta or whatever else that isn't media fandom. (Which is not to say that I'm not a fan of knitting... :P )

You are welcome to pass through here once and never return or to read and comment dedicatedly or anything in between-- far be it for me to control how you spend your time. Likewise, feel free to subscribe/unsubscribe/give me access/remove my access according to how the mood strikes you. You do not need to give me any notice, but if you'd like to tell me why (or introduce yourself, in the cases of subscribing or giving access), well, I'm curious, so feel free!

I try to keep personal/identifying information off of the wide wacky web simply because it is the wide wacky web. And in case you care, the robots.txt file for this journal is currently set such that this journal is not currently archived by Google etc (this may end up changing in the future or it may not, so keep that in mind if you care about your Google footprint), although I do have the Dreamwidth site specific search enabled.

I don't ever mean to be mean or rude or offensive or otherwise a jerk (and yes, this includes being an *ist or propagating an *ism), so if I have been, please call me on it! I promise that I will listen and reflect.



------Profile from LJ c&p'ed below (to be edited eventually)----
The fandoms I'm most interested in at the moment are: Leverage, SGA, Doctor Who and Torchwood, Merlin (the BBC programme), and Supernatural. Fandoms I'm currently more dabbling in: Harry Potter, SG1, Firefly, Buffy/Angel, Smallville, and Psych. There are others I wander through on occasional but it makes me sad when I can't remember them all, so I'm not writing them down here.

I am absolutely horrible with remembering to comment on things that I have promised comments. So if at any point I've said I'd comment, and it has been a week or so and I haven't commented yet, feel free to remind me! (I am sorry sorry sorry! But if you remind me, I will try my best to follow up! Actually, I'll try my best regardless. But the success rate might be higher with a reminder.)

Concrit: I love concrit. I know I'm not the best writer (but I'm working on it!), so any thoughts you feel like sharing would be greatly appreciated. Negative reviews are also fine. So are positive reviews! So are one-word comments! So is lurking! So is thinking about commenting and then deciding to try to send the comment telepathically (I do this occasionally. It never really seems to work. Ooops.)

Transformative work policy, short form: Yes! Blanket permission! Blanket permission for everything! *throws confetti around* [The only-slightly-longer form of the official version of my transformative works policy can be found at my masterpost] (This way I only have to update one thing, which is simpler and easier! woot!).

Obligatory age statement: I am older than 18. (Are these things even obligatory any more?)
