Day 5

In your own space, talk about your fannish origin story. How did you come to fandom, why did you choose your fannish name, do you have more than one secret identity? Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

How did I come to fandom??

Okay, so I was in a French class in 9th Grade, and it was a terrible pointless class, where the teacher was gone most of the time, and we watched A LOT of Disney movies in English. xD Anyway, I had a group of friends who would bring in these printed out HP fanfiction, and it just kinda progressed from there. That was like... oh lord, um 12 years ago? Yeah, 12 years ago ish. It was GREAT. xD Um shortly after that I started writing, which there are like 2 places where stuff I've written is still on the internet, as well as on my external hard drive, since I just can't give it up. I dunno even know what was going on in most of them. xD ANYWAY, yeah so reading to writing to lurking. Once I stopped writing I started lurking, and reading, and just super enjoying fanfiction in my spare time. XD Then a year and half ago I listened to my first podfic, and I was in love, and then I got a mic, and I started recording... and that is the short rambly story of how I came to be in fandom. \o/

How did I get my fannish name?

I actually took the first name of a character from a book I was reading at the time, and the last name of a character from another book I was reading... and then I had Rose Creighton... XD Which is shortened to RsCreighton on most sights I'm on. :D *points* Boring story, haha.

Do you have more than one secret identity?

I did! 12 years ago, but I don't even think I can remember what it was. xD It was a long time ago.
