maevedarcy has a huge list of questions to ask a fangirl. I am no girl, but the questions appear interesting.

How did you first discover your main fandoms?
I may have told this story before. I was aware of Doctor Who, having watching bits and bobs of some episodes, but didn't really know what I was watching. While searching for Van Gogh documentaries on YouTube, a clip from Vincent and the Doctor sneaked in. That was the first time I had a name for the weird (affectionate) show. The rest is history.
As for Conrad Veidt, again, I was semi-aware after deciding that The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari was a nice entryway to feature-length silent films. But it took years to learn more about him and get bonked on the head with the urge of "I must watch everything".

What was it about the fandom(s) that initially captured your interest?
Doctor Who: Time travel! Space! Aliens! Love and compassion!
Conrad Veidt: This man can do it all! He seems nice. He's making me feel things.

Can you recall a moment when you realized you were more than just a casual fan?
When you start non-stop drawing fanart, basically.

How has your interest in fandom evolved over time?
Doctor Whogrew until it stabilised, a few years ago. But it's still here, and will always be here.

Is there anyone in your life that shares your passion for fandom?
Nope.

How does your fandom inspire you in your everyday life?
More so my everyday life inspired my fandoms, if you think about it.

Does the fandom influence your personal style, hobbies, or interests?
The other way around.

Can you share a personal story related to your fandom that you cherish?
When I first joined Dreamwidth, I followed my favourite author, even if she hadn't updated in years. She sent me a message. I was chuffed to bits, even if it was a "hey I don't post here anymore, but thanks".

What valuable lessons have you learned from being part of fandom?
You can be as nice as you want, but that doesn't mean others will be in return. Don't bother with them.

Have you met any of your closest friends through a fandom?
Nope.

Are there any rituals or traditions you enjoy before new releases related to fandom?
No. I have yet to see the newest DW seasons. And the "new" releases of Connie material are not for us mere mortals.

If you could introduce someone new to fandom, how would you describe it to them.
Easy. There are a few newbies guides to DW, and Connie is just some guy.
