Hello all! No one had posted a Yuletide Friending Meme yet, so I decided to step up to the plate. This may be on DW, but it is for LJ as well, and all you LJ-ers can comment with Open ID. If you want to meet people who share your small fandoms, want to pimp your fics, or just want to start the new year with some more friends, comment below with the following!

Name: Sineala

Fandoms: Oh. Um. Lots. My current major big fandoms are probably The Professionals, Star Trek (TOS and AOS, though I have a soft spot for TNG), and Sherlock Holmes (ACD canon is my favorite, but I like the reboot too). Other than that, if you name a Western media fandom I probably have been in it or at least have read all the good fic. I have a weakness for SF/F and/or slashy buddy-cops. TS, dS, B5, new BSG, a bit of HL, HP, S&H and the Whedonverse fandoms are the big ones. Also, lemme think, Young Wizards (and everything else Diane Duane has ever written ever ever ever, especially the Rihannsu-verse), Psych, Inspector Lewis, Donald Strachey, the Phoenix Wright games, Rome (where is the Rome fandom?) and probably many more I am forgetting. Just yesterday I read the Doctrine of Labyrinths series for the first time and wow, that really deserves a fandom. *obsesses quietly to self, rereads Monette's Shadow Unit stories instead*

How many years you've been doing Yuletide: Three!

Your fic: This year it's One Hundred Heads (Psion), One True Way (Valdemar), and Being an Account of a Journey to the strange new California Republic (and a most peculiar Hotel therein) (Hotel California/Echo Bazaar). Maybe I should have been a little more terse naming that one.

DW or LJ? (Or Twitter, or Plurk, or...): Both! (Same username.) Friend me on either! I like friends! I also have a Twitter, but I use that mostly for Echo Bazaar, so I wouldn't recommend friending me there unless you just want EBZ spam.

Journaling habits: Some RL stuff, some fannish. The RL stuff is locked. The fannish stuff is blither about fandom, the occasional episode review, the occasional story, and so on.

Other interests: Languages and linguistics, about which I occasionally geek out. My girlfriend lysimache is teaching me Latin, so there are posts where I mock Ovid and also plot fiendishly elaborate Ancient Rome AUs. Also video games! I don't have many friends who are into the fandoms, so I'm kind of a feral fan there, but I like Phoenix Wright and Final Fantasy and especially all the SMT and Persona games and every Vagrant Story fic I've ever read (but sadly VS the game is too hard for me). Also I am teaching myself to knit (badly) on knitting looms. And I love my e-book reader (a Kindle) more than is probably healthy, so if you want to friend someone who says "squee, look what you can read on Kindle now! The Catch Trap!" every so often that person is probably me.

Anything else?: I think that's about it. :)

ECHO BAZAAR FTW. The number of EBZ fics this Yuletide made me so, so happy.

Thank you. You are so kind, delicious friend. :)

I didn't even start playing it until #yuletide made me.
