In your own space, talk about one of your fandom firsts. This could be your first fandom, your first fandom friend, the first fanwork you created, the first fanwork you interacted with... The options are endless!
There are a couple of ways to answer this one, and I feel like I did several in my fannish origins post, so I'm going to go a little later in my fannish career and talk about the first fandom I wrote a lot of fics for, considered decently big, and was pretty well known in -- because that's a combination of factors that hit like nothing else.
So. Kingsman.
My first fic for it, Getting It Right, overtook everything I'd ever published before on AO3 in terms of kudos within two days. My longest fic, Until I Saw Your Face (over 100k!), and what I think of as my most creative fic, Hope and Good Intentions, are both in that fandom.
I have 60 fics published for it overall, and at least 30 more unfinished stories.
Anyway, the sequel put me right off anything to do with it, and small fandoms can be fun, but I miss the joy of a larger community. I still occasionally get a person who goes through my whole Kingsman oeuvre and comments on them all.
