Snowflake Challenge - Challenge #5

[smallhobbit]

Today's Challenge is to talk about what has improved in your life thanks to fandom.

That has to be the number of friends I've made.  Some have moved on, but I remain friends with them.  Some I see in real life, some I only ever contact via the internet.  

Because of those friends I've read some different books, and learnt about life in different parts of the world - not just the bits which are featured in the news, but the more mundane everyday lives which most people live.  I've received more cards than I would have received, for Christmas, birthdays and at other times.  And I've shared good times and bad times.

Without fandom, the Ferret would never have strutted his stuff on the stage, and werewolf!Lucas would have missed out on all the parties.

Obrigado! That is very true - it's somewhere we can be ourselves.
