Fandom and other fandoms -- do you indulge?

[themostepotente]

Besides the Harry Potter fandom -- do you write for any other fandoms currently?

What ships do you like in other fanverses?

Have you considered trying your hand at writing for another fandom?

Or perhaps you left another fandom to come to Harry Potter?

Do you consider some of the fandoms to be flash in the pans?

And lastly, how long do you foresee the Harry Potter fandom lasting?

I know that I've written for;

LoTR
TPM
Star Trek
X-Men

cave_canem is making me seriously consider the Buffyverse.

What are your thoughts on the topic?

Yep... I write for LotR and Bram Stoker's Dracula (the movie thing), even if it was a while ago I posted anything for them, mostly due to my beta reader doing the disappearing act on me.

In LotR... Hmm, I'm a pervy Elf-fancier, so... Elves! I mostly slash Elves with Elves, even if an Elf/Man has shown up occasionally. But fav pairing... Celeborn/Haldir? or Erestor/Legolas or Erestor/Glorfindel? Ack, now I forgot Elrond. *sends him off to Thranduil* I just love them all, the canon Elves, that is, not the silly fangirl invention of Figwit aka Melpomaen *stabs*

I also have a soft spot for Balrog of Moria/WitchKing of Angmar *cuddles them and is singed to death*

I'm always considering new fandoms *grins* I can get the strangest random ideas. I have this slightly fuzzy plotbunny that pokes me to slash a Wagner opera?! How many would be even the slightest interested in reading that?

I suppose I left LotR behind a bit when I got so involved with the HP rpg... playing two fairly busy characters and modding? Not much time left for other things.

I'm not sure I can really say anything about a fandom I'm not in... To each and everyone according to their tastes.

The HP fandom could last a long time. Even if the last book will be published in 2 years or something like that, the movies are lagging behind. It could be that some people move on to the next fad, like many jumped from LotR to PotC and then to Troy, following a certain skinny actor. But I think a large group of people , hardcore *winks* fans will stay.

And people call me nutty for slashing Grima :-)
