Coffeecon

[nickelmountain]

 I spent yesterday in Milwaukee, drinking coffee and talking fandom with nwhepcat  and huzzlewhat . The day was made of awesome. It was my first meet-up with other fans - I went to one day of the Supernatural con in November, but I didn't actually talk to anyone. So cool to talk about fanfic out loud.

This meet-up was unlike other specialized interest meet-ups I've been to. Very occasionally, I'll find myself at a vegan meet-up. The food is generally pretty awesome, but the people talk about nothing but being vegan. The politics of it, especially. It gets old. I've been vegan almost half my life - it's a fact of my existence, not an interest. I have my reasons, but I don't feel compelled to go over them again and again.

Fandom...is totally different. I really want to talk about fannish stuff, pretty much all the time, and nickelhusband has been my solitary, long-suffering audience up until now. Also, nwhepcat and huzzlewhat are cool as hell. You can tell anyone I said so.

I promised another podfic. It will happen. I'm in the preliminary stages now.

But first - eight hours at work!
