Feel free to prod me when I drop the ball!

I'm Tielan/Sel, I've been in online fandom since 2000, and started on LJ in 2001, moving to DW from 2009-2012, before pretty much moving long-term to DW from then on.

I feel like there's not much to say that I haven't already said in previous years.

Forty-something, cishet, non-white, been fannish a long time (since Return of the Jedi came out) but didn't have a name for it until the later 90s. Got into online fandom ~ 2001 and boom.

I'm in Sydney, Australia, garden, cook, quilt, sew, keep chooks, and somehow find the time to write in amidst all that and a forty-hour work week. Jack of all trades, master of none, etc. There are tags for these in my journal if you're interested in following it - chooks tends to fall under 'garden', and cooking is mostly under 'recipes'.

I've been in a number of megafandoms, most recently MCU, but previously Stargate Atlantis, Merlin, and Stargate SG1. I tend towards western fantasy/sci-fi fandoms: BSG, Firefly, Buffy & Angel, Merlin, Harry Potter, Sanctuary (TV).

Presently trying to write an urban fantasy novel, am facing major rewrites. Ugh.

Posts are mostly about RL and things going on - politics, my personal life, health, things I'm thinking about ('thinky thoughts') etc.

It's always friending/unfriending season, but I'm looking more for RL posts than fannish ones, particularly if we don't share the same fandoms.
