fancons

[ride_4ever]

Just returned from ConneXions and then in five days I leave for VividCon...and then that's it for 2017 fancons, and time to start planning for 2018 fancons. Any of my flisties going to Escapade, RevelCon, Bitchin' Party, ConStrict, Con.Txt,or VividCon in 2018?

We weren't aware of it either until we attended that ConneXions! It was a bit of a rude awakening.

LaT wrote a lot of dS fic. Kasha got involved in e-mail list conversations but didn't really write fic. Kasha and I text each other about various fandoms several times a week to this day.

Ah. Yes, I've read dS fic by LaT. Kasha is not known to me -- and how cool that she's a fan with whom you've kept in contact all this time.

A lot of fen friends have drifted in and out of my life, some of whom I really miss, but Kasha and I have had a long friendship that transcends fandom, which in my experience is pretty rare. A lot of people just stopped talking to me eventually once they drifted out of a fandom we were both in.

Well, you and I don't currently share a fandom and I'm still around (though at this precise juncture I'm around and about to go to sleep as it's nearly 3:00 AM local time).

It may help that I've been in online fandoms for almost twenty years so I've seen a lot of people come and go, including people who were my close friends at one time.

And go sleep! ::shoo, shoo::
