Challenge #5

Talk about what has improved in your life thanks to fandom.

The challenge prompt asked if fandom brought joy so I'll just answer: yes! That question about our fannish origins has got me very nostalgic, and looking back I can say that from the moment I found fanfiction it's been my happy place. I remember being homesick and knowing exactly where to go to make myself feel better, and though the fandoms come and go -- and with all the crazy things happening in the world today -- that's still true.

❤️ I can still tenths the tingly feeling and the sleepless nights back when I first discovered fanfiction for the first time. It was, and remains, ~magical~. ❤️

Glad to see that curing homesickness with fanfic is a thing for at least one other person 💗💗💗 Spent a lot of my first weeks at uni rereading old favorites 😊
