DW username: auroracloud Preferred pronouns: she/her Other platforms (tumblr, twitter, etc): AuroraCloud Active/primary interests or fandoms: Doctor Who (Classic and New, a lot of different Doctors and companions). I'm super into reading, especially science fiction and fantasy, and am particularly fannish/obsessive about the Wayfarers series, The Imperial Radch, The Machineries of the Empire, and This Is How You Lose the Time War, and things that Aliette de Bodard writes. I listen to a lot of podcasts, both non-fictional and fictional, and my current favourite podcast dramas include The Bright Sessions, The Far Meridian, The Strange Case of the Starship Iris, and the very recently discovered (but immediately adored) Penumbra Podcast.
In non-fannish interests, I also really like ballet and dancing, and music. I love history and sciences, and I'm learning programming. I also crochet, and enjoy spending time in the nature.
If you've seen me around, it's probably because: You've read my fic, seen me commenting on yours, seen me commenting in someone else's journal, or you've seen my recs in tardis_library or comments in podcast_joy. Or because I've participated in the Write Every Day challenge for years and occasionally hosted it in my journal. I post about: Fannish stuff, writing, and personal life. Personal life stuff goes mostly under friends/access lock. RL stuff includes some frank discussion of mental health issues, but I try to keep potentially triggering or lengthy things under the cut. I do reading Wednesdays every now and then (not always on a Wednesday), I sometimes post about fanfic challenges and share fic, and try to remember to share all my fics in my journal. Personal things include anything from ballet progress and what I've baked recently to Figuring Out My Life. I post/check my feed: I check my feed a few times a day, at least. Posting varies from a few posts a day to one or two a month. On the average it's probably 1-2 posts a week? I want to find people that post about: I'd always love to have more people who share my fandoms, especially the rarer ones ie. the book and podcast ones (or more Doctor Who fans who adore the Second Doctor era). But I'd also really love to find people who I share other interests with, who post about their lives, thoughts, hobbies, pets, etc., even if we don't directly share fandoms, as long as we share other interests. I also love having people who rec interesting books, podcasts etc. or share interesting links. I am most interested in interacting with people on: Dreamwidth. I have an LJ with the same username, but I'm slower at commenting and don't check my feed nearly as often. I always love it when people read and comment on my fics. If you're on Goodreads and want more friends, you can ask me for my profile there. My blog is: Fannish and general media stuff (like what I've been reading) is usually public, personal/RL stuff is usually locked. Anything else you need to know about me: I'm queer (I don't know if lesbian or bi or pan is the right word, so I just say queer), feminist, politically left-wing, though I don't post a lot about politics because I get easily depressed by some topics. I'm from Finland and my native language is Finnish, but I post in English and am very comfortable with it. I love languages.
I have some problems with focus and managing my life and time and thoughts, so if I forget to reply to a comment, don't comment on a super-important post or forget to do something I've said I would do, it's not personal, it's just my brain failing at things. It's okay to remind me.
Also, if you want to be friends, please comment or send me a PM or something! It doesn't have to be anything huge, but I like to say hi, at least, and possibly know why someone wants to be friends, especially before I grant access. If you just want to subscribe to my public content, you don't need to say anything, but if you're hoping for mutuals and access, it's a good idea to say something because otherwise I may not get around to checking you out.
