Tracks in the Sand

My fannish history began in the 70s, with Star Trek and my aunt taking me to a convention. I was very into a lot of other fannish shows like Starsky & Hutch, Battlestar Galactica, Hawaii Five-O (originals), but never connected with other fans outside of Star Trek and never realised other people wrote fanfic until much later.

In the 90s I found the internet, and found real life fans as well, and got into writing for zines and a few mailing lists. Still into Starsky & Hutch, I was also into Forever Knight and The Sentinel, and from there things basically went into full speed.

Over the last mumbley-gook years, I've been into and out of dozens of fandoms and written hundreds upon hundreds of stories. In the last few years I've basically stopped writing except for a few exchanges, and more or less stopped reading voraciously as well. Right at the moment I would say I'm enjoying Good Omens, and some MCU, as well as forever holding out for more Ivan Vorpatril fic.

Fandom (and life) has been full of both good and bad things, things I wish I could take back and tings I wish I could do again and pay proper attention. But until someone invents (and shares) a time machine, all I can do is look forward to something new to come along.
