IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN
Nov. 12th, 2014 10:24 amAs the popularity of podfic grows, podficcers start spreading out and popping up all over the place. Where are those interested in podfic hanging out these days and how are they supporting each other, check out pod_aware on DW, LJ or Tumblr to find out.
Two years ago today, I hosted the second podfic Twitter friending meme. Just over a year before THAT, I hosted the first one, which kicked up a minor explosion of podfic-related activity on Twitter.
But we have reached a point where the podfic community has extended beyond like 50 of us all following each other on Twitter. We're spread out across multiple platforms, far and wide, and once again we find ourselves on the community day of
pod_aware, so once again, I present...

But this time we're mixing it up a little bit. GONE ARE THE DAYS WHERE THIS MEME IS TWITTER-ONLY! Let's open this bitch up to connecting podficcers across ALL SITES in the fannish network!!! Feel free to delete whatever lines aren't relevant to you/you don't want to share. Anon commenting is turned on, as is OpenID—you don't need a Dreamwidth to participate here!
HAVE FUN!! [thumbs up emoji]

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Twitter, hands down. I'm REALLY ACTIVE THERE, and basically completely inactive everywhere else, although I do usually post finished fanworks to AO3.
Current main fandom(s)? Hockey RPF, def. I also dabble in shit tons of other stuff, but that's mainly where I'm at these days. But also I yell on twitter a lot about nail polish (and sometimes lipstick), my job (#HipsterLawFirm), and screaming about how I hate Minnesota winters.
Anything else? LOVE YOU GUYS, LOVE THE PODFIC FANDOM, WOULD LOVE TO GET SOME NEW BLOOD IN MY PODFIC CIRCLE }:D <3

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Definitely Tumblr. My podfics are all posted on AO3. I used to be more active on Twitter, but not lately. That could change?
Current main fandom(s)? More like only fandom - Veronica Mars. Not that I don't like other TV shows, movies, bands, etc., but VM is the only fandom I'm active in.
Anything else? I live in Chicago, originally from Honolulu. Too old for social media, too stubborn to care. I love Rottweilers, Harley-Davidsons, photography, typography, Photoshop, and technology in general. Not necessarily expert with any of same, but I can hold my own in most company :)

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? DW and tumblr both good for conversation - DW will have more non-fannish content and I'm more relaxed here, tumblr is a strictly fannish space; LJ is fully mirrored from DW and in a read-only mode, so you can follow me there but talk to me elsewhere; and all my fanworks get posted to the AO3
Current main fandom(s)? Haven, Person of Interest, Jewish Scripture & Lore, Leverage, various seasons of Power Rangers
Anything else? Brain fry error. I'm friendly, I promise! ETA. Writer and podficcer, a lot newer to the podfic side of thing. May be interested in doing

Other Relevant Social Networks and Usernames: I'm also vassalady on deviantart the few times I decide to post my crocheting there, but I post it all to twitter/tumblr anyway
What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Babble on twitter CONSTANTLY, also pretty active on tumblr. Completed fic and podfic get posted to AO3.
Current main fandom(s)? Marvel (not just MCU, also a lot of comics these days), ESPECIALLY STEVE ROGERS. Like, if you want to hear someone go on about Steve all day in a multiship, NSFW way, hello, please introduce yourself, let's chat.
Anything else? Podfic is super, super great, and so are all you who make and/or enjoy it! I do more writing than podficcing, but I am a solid podfic fan and listener, no doubt, and really want to try to do more multimedia fanworks, including incorporating lots of audio material! I also do a lot of livetweeting of fic writing and comic reading, often random and disjointed.

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? I'm most active on tumblr, somehow? I tried Twitter, but found the format too fast-paced for me. I check my Dreamwidth regularly, even if I don't post often. I always post my podfics to AO3 first and would consider that my podfic 'masterlist' before anything else.
Current main fandom(s)? I'm pretty multi-fannish! My current fandoms are Sleepy Hollow, Brooklyn Nine Nine, X-Men (movies), Captain America: Winter Soldier, Welcome to Night Vale, and the Hobbit movies.
Anything else? I'm super excited to make new podfic friends! Leaving Twitter was hard, but necessary for my mental health, so I'd really love to meet some new people!

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? I'm mostly active on tumblr. I never really tweet, but if you want to get in touch with me through there, you definitely can. All of my podfic and fanfic is up on AO3.
Current main fandom(s)? Uhhhh. I'm super super multi-fannish. I guess I'm posting mostly Game of Thrones/ASOIAF and Glee right now, but I'm active in tons of fandoms and reblog bits and pieces and write meta/reactions around lots of them. I guess probably Peaky Blinders, Marvel, Hannibal, White Collar, Dishonored, Bioware RPGs, OUAT and the perennial SPN are the other things I mostly post on tumblr. I tag everything obsessively, though, so if there's stuff you don't want to see on your dash, you can absolutely avoid it.
Anything else? Please do come talk to me! I would love to get to know more podficcers and writers :)

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Twitter, definitely. I forget DW exists, only reblog on Tumblr most days, and never liked LJ much. I do post all my fics and podfics to AO3, though.
Current main fandom(s)? Hockey RPF, mostly, but I dabble in LOADS of fandoms and mostly am in the READING PORN fandom. Yaaaasss. I podfic a lot of explicit fic, don't mind me.
Anything else? Podfic BEST, wooooo! (also I'm that weirdo that set the 50 podfics in 52 weeks challenge for this past year. or, well, I thought at the time it was gonna be difficult, but turns out it really hasn't been. 7 left to do.)
Oh right, also please use they/them pronouns when referring to me, thanks :D

Other Relevant Social Networks and Usernames: I'm also the24thkey on pinboard, but other than that no fannish sites come to mind.
What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? I'm most active on twitter. My tumblr is really mostly for following other people, though I do occasionally go on reblogging sprees. I post all my podfic on the AO3, but I usually keep my reader's notes and stuff like that on dw/lj (where I've been trying to post more often, not very successfully).
Current main fandom(s)? Probably still Hockey RPF, at least when it comes to actually creating fannish content. I also spend a lot of time talking about various anime (mostly sports anime, let's be real), depending on what's running at the time. Same goes for whatever JRPG I'm currently playing. I tend to fall back into older fandoms of mine regularly, like tsn, lesmis, Inception, Gordon Korman books, MCU, Dresden Files etc.
Anything else? I spend quite a lot of time crying about having too many feelings about fictional characters, whining about work/how long it takes me to edit podfic/how I have barely any fangirls living near me, and talking about languages. And martial arts. And hockey. And nail polish. I'm currently listening to Serial and watching How To Get Away With Murder, Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Akatsuki no Yona among other things, so if you want someone to squee with over those, I'm your girl. <3

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? I'm most socially active on twitter and tumblr, though I don't usually send up new-podfic alerts there. Podfics are posted on DW, cross-posted to LJ, and (sometimes on the same day, sometimes later) posted to AO3. I'm easiest to get a hold of and most comfortable chatting with ppl on twitter
Current main fandom(s)? for *current* *main* fandoms, probably MCU, due South, Leverage, Young Wizards, Vorkosigan Saga, the Hobbit and Spartacus, but once I'm in a fandom, I never really leave it, except in excessively rare cases, even if I stop being involved with the canon. Even if I'm not posting podfic, I'm listening to podfic, reading fic, and squeeing over headcanons and gifs and photosets and meta. If you've ever seen me being even vaguely involved with something, chances are EXTREMELY HIGH that I will be 150% onboard with squeeing over it with someone!

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? twitter, since I can check it from my phone, but I check tumblr at least once a day.
Current main fandom(s)? Supernatural, Levearge, Doctor Who and Stargate, but the list is a lot longer and constantly growing. Oh! And Night Vale, and MCU, and Sleepy Hollow, and...

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? I talk the most on Twitter, at times I post more on tumblr (though it's 99.9% reblogs)? IDK, I switch between the two a lot but can't really handle both at the same time.
Current main fandom(s)? I'm monofannish, and currently that fandom is Marvel (Avengers, both MCU and some comics), though my tumblr can be more varied (and has a lot more social justice stuff), and my twitter is a lot more RL or podfic talk.
Anything else? If you don't want to follow me, you should at least follow the twitter account I run,

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Aw, man, that's hard. AO3 is the heart of it, but there's nothing personal going on there. The journals have always been where I kicked back, but so few people are around there anymore. Twitter, I guess? Though I don't use it to actually *fangirl* much...
Current main fandom(s)? Teen Wolf.
Anything else? I love podaware! It's always so nice to here how much my process is similar, and sometimes completely different, from everyone else's. :D Hi~~!

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Right now, Tumblr because I don't have the mental energy for anything else. But normally, Twitter and Dreamwidth.

Anything else? Not a podficcer, but I co-mod a great podfic rec community (

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Sort of one foot in twitter, one foot in tumblr, with posting usually happening first at AO3.
Current main fandom(s)? Glee, but starting to feel a bit transitional. Also very into Nashville, The Fosters, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, OUAT (Swan Queen pairing), Animorphs (but I've only read through Book 31 so please don't spoil me), and Faking It. Looking for a new fannish place to land at the end of this season of Glee that is either het or femslash... though I recognize that often fandoms choose us, not the other way around!
Anything else? I LOVE talking podfic meta. I'm not great at staying on top of social media and seeing everyone else's tweets/reblogs all the time—I'm much more likely to dip in and out when I have a few minutes to check—but I like following people because I love the opportunity to engage directly in conversation with each other. So I guess what I'm saying is that I won't see everything you say, but I'll see some of it, and I'll be really excited about the stuff you say to me! Also, I do check the podfic tag on tumblr and do a daily podfic search on twitter, so if you are talking about podfic I probably *will* see it :)

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? All my podfic is on AO3. Beyond that, I'm most active on twitter and tumblr (though my tumblr is mostly reblogs of awesome sci fi ladies). I rarely check my LJ or DW anymore.
Current main fandom(s)? Star Trek, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and Cyteen (CJ Cherryh) are my all-time favorites, but other fandoms near the top of my list include WtNV, Sleepy Hollow, & MCU. There are a lot of others, though. I think of myself as primarily (not exclusively) a niche podficcer. Small fandoms, rare characters, rare pairs. Most of what I record is female-centric, though there is some dudeslash in there, too.
Anything else? I'm into pretty much anything involving spaceships, time travel, alternate universes, or clones. Superpowers, monsters, and the apocalypse generally do it for me, too. But best of all is any of those things + a well-written female lead. Seriously, I could talk about Sarah Connor, Sarah Manning, Abbie Mills, and Tamika Flynn ALL DAY.
Also: YAY PODFIC!!! Podfic is <3!

Current main fandom(s)? podfic fandom, lots of anime, free!, tokyo ghoul, hq, with cameos from avengers, supernatural, homestuck and more fandoms than I can think of.
Anything else? I'm random, if something catches my attention, I'll reblog it, expect pics of knitting and animals.
I hope we can get along!

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Tumblr, definitely (Note: some of you have followed me there and I SEE YOU AND ILU ♥♥♥. Please don't be offended if I don't follow back--it's to save my dash. There are days I legitimately have to go back through 100+ pages to catch up with my dash. But I love when people pop into my inbox or tag/mention me in things!). My tumblr is exactly what it says on the tin in my blog description. I do post a lot but I tag obsessively. I am bad at blogging so my LJ and DW are mostly for signing up for things and posting in communities. And Twitter as a medium doesn't entirely work for me, but I am open to having more friends there and then maybe I might actually tweet more? All of my podfic is up at AO3 and I cross post to tumblr.
Current main fandom(s)? Currently: Marvel Cinematic Universe + Agents of Shield, Brooklyn Nine Nine, Pacific Rim, and Elementary. I have many many many more fandoms that I've been in but aren't active in anymore e.g. SGA, Harry Potter, Sailor Moon, LotR, Firefly, Ouran High School Host Club, etc.
Anything else? My stuff is gen/het-inclined with a sprinkling of femslash here and there. Generally, if ladies aren't involved my interest wanes, unless it involves Steve Rogers, whom I happily multiship with a plethora of characters (I embrace the "Steve Rogers is bisexual" headcanon wholeheartedly). Humor is my wheelhouse, but I do like to switch it up genre-wise every once in a while. LET'S BE FRIENDS GUISE! :D :D :D

What site are you most active on/is your "preferred fannish home"? Probably twitter! Tumblr is a constant cycle of forgetting to load my queue and panicking over the amount of likes I have that I need to go through, although I am on there fairly often.
Current main fandom(s)? MARVEL, ugh, it's my new shiny and so I'm pretty obsessive with it right now. Mostly MCU, although I'm getting into comics and other mediums (like the kid tv shows, those are my favvvv). Supernatural is near and dear to my heart, and I will cry over bandom any day. Steve Rogers gives me LIFE.
Anything else? I haven't had a chance to go through the comments on here yet, but I can't wait to! This is how I made friends on twitter in the first place, and podficcers were the absolute sweetest to me. I'd love to meet more lovely people <3
