You
Do you have any hobbies?: Reading, watching TV/movies, cross stitch, home reno/decorating, sewing
Do you have any interests, that wouldn't fall under a hobby?: Gardening, art of various kinds, music of various kinds, my family, my dog
Any dislikes?: Sure
Are you into fandom?: Yes! I read fanfic every day, I used to rec lots and want to do that more again. My fandoms change, and I get fixated for a while on one, but have recently realised there's no reason not to be multi-fannish.
What does your day to day look like?: I work 9-5 in an office weekdays, then either stay home or visit with family and the few RL friends I have on weekends. I walk the dog, watch TV, read.

Entertainment
What do you like to watch?: Sci-fi shows (Star Trek shows, The Expanse, MCU shows, Star Wars shows, Stargate shows), fantasy (The Wheel of Time, The Witcher, Dark Crystal), historical/period drama, anything that seems interesting really. I watch a lot of youtube of the costube variety, home renos and chateau channels, and recently Critical Role
What movies do you enjoy?: Same sort of things as TV.
Do you play games? If so, what do you like?: I don't play games generally. I have started watching Critical Role on YouTube
If you like to read, what do you read?: I read daily. Primarily m/m fanfic (Teh Old Guard, Generation Kill, MCU, Teen Wolf, Inception, other fandoms). When I read novels I go with audiobooks. The Wheel of Time, Outlander, The Martian are some of my favourite books/series.
What kind of music do you listen to?: All sorts. I particularly like classic rock, indy rock, and early 2000s punk rock/emo rock. Favourite bands include MCR, Fall Out Boy, Paramore, Muse, Green Day, The Eagles, INXS, Bon Jovi etc.

Journal & Friending
What do you post about?: Some life stuff, some fannish talk about TV/movies, fic recs. I'm considering trying my hand at making user icons again too.
How often do you update?: I hope a couple of times a week?
What do you look for in a DW friend?: People of similar interests and life stages.
What do you like to read about on your friends page?: I would like to have a reading list of like-minded people. Fandom people, but not always my same fandoms. Nice to hear from people in comments too.
Do you have any kind of friending policy?: I will subscribe to those I find interesting, and anyone is welcome to subscribe to me if they find my posts interesting. No pressure, if you want to move on, feel free.
Do you have any deal-breakers?: No-one under 18. I won't interact with hateful ideals. I won't abide kink-shaming.
Is there anything others should know before friending?: I'm ace, but I enjoy reading porny and kinky fic, and I will rec it. I have no problem with RPF.

Anything else? I don't think so?

We share some fandoms in common (The Expanse, Critical Role, The Dark Crystal), and I love talking fannish things.

Wanna give it a go?
