So hey, flist. Announcement.

This journal didn't really start out as such; I got it because I wanted to separate any fan-posting I did from my real name, which is publicly attached to my other journal. However, for awhile there I barely used this space; I'd occasionally post a picture or something. I was slipping out of fandom and stuff.

I've added a lot of people over the years, for various reasons, but I haven't really bonded with a lot of you and have kept to myself, etc. Now that I'm actually getting more involved in fandom again (one big, specific fandom in particular), though, I want to make this more of a "real" journal.

So I'm going to do some flist trimming, okay? It's not that I dislike any of you, but enough of us have never talked . . . pretty much ever. Or we shared a fandom a long time ago that I'm just not that involved in anymore, or who knows what. I don't really read some of your journals, and I'm pretty sure plenty of you don't read mine.

(By the way, I am totally cool with people defriending me at any point, for the same or whatever other reasons. I should probably make a note to that effect somewhere.)

And, y'know, if you get trimmed and are all sad about it, you can go ahead and comment and I'll probably add you back. I just kind of assume that a lot of you are like me: normally kind of paranoid and guilty about defriending people even when it's totally amicable and based on changing interests, the way things go in fandom a lot.

Um, and I might start friending some of the bandom people whose journals I have been reading. Because it's kind of silly for me to just read

sweetvalleyslut's &

olivia_circe's flists all the time. [ETA:] Nevermind, still a little too shy to go around friending people I don't know. I'll do it later, really.
