I made a whole spreadsheet for my niche fandom rare pair 80-chapter-long fanfic to help the approximately 20 people who read it avoid spoilers and content they may not want to see. I think I've hit my peak of 'fanfic nerd bullshit nobody asked for'.
Dear Supernatural fandom, I am internet illiterate and require an assist! (And I'll reward you! Maybe!)
(I'm not really internet illiterate, but I'm not as savvy as I need to be, apparently.) So a few years ago, I was heavily into this one fandom (we won't talk about which one, it's embarrassing) and today, after a bout of nostalgia for the fandom, I realized that what I missed was not so much the subject matter, but the close-knit community (despite almost 50,000 members) that was fostered by the fandom-specific website I was frequenting. Now, I hate that website, I hate the way it's run and a lot of other things about it which I won't get into, I always did, and I'm not interested in that fandom any longer. However, I do long for the sense of camaraderie between fans that I just feel like I'm not getting from larger websites like Tumblr , and I want that for my current fandoms, particularly Supernatural. I miss that almost small-town, everybody-knows-everybody type closeness, and I'm sure it's out there somewhere for the SPN fandom - I just have to find it. A few searches into uncharted territory (Navigating Livejournal is still a mystery to me D: ) have proved frustrating, so I turn to you, dear fandom. All I want are some links to SPN communities that specifically cater to fanfiction and/or Destiel, preferably both. Pretty much any website but ff.net, since I'm not a particular fan of that site either. +100 points if site/community is/has a live chatroom, because absolutely nothing is better than chatting with fandom buddies about gay porn fiction in real time. :D In fact, if you find me one with an active chatroom, I'll write you a SPN oneshot. Preferably Destiel, (Or Samifer, totally down with Samifer) but whatever you want to prompt me with is cool. I don't have many squicks. I know I'm not a known author in the SPN fandom, and I'm a little rusty, but I USED to be a *fairly* well-known author in the fandom-that-shall-not-be-named, so it'll be decent. XD So yeah. About that chatroom. :D
