Day 2

 

In your own space, share a favorite memory about fandom: the first time you got into fandom, the last time a fanwork touched your heart, crazy times with fellow fans (whether on-line or off-line), a lovely comment you’ve received or have left for someone. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
 

I met my best friend through fandom! They posted in a newsgroup (remember those?) looking for fellow fans in our area. I answered, we met up and off we went. :D

Awesome! So great when that works out.

That's wonderful! Having someone to squee with IRL is the best.

I do remember those! (I kind of miss them.) And how awesome that it turned into such a great friendship.

I thought you might when I saw your username. ^_^ (Oh, Friday nights...nachos, X-Files, and Outer Limits. Good times.) I can't believe how long ago it all was sometimes.
