Grabbed this meme from
nostalgia_lj, but it's going around everywhere now.
Day 1 - How did you first get into writing fanfic, and what was the first fandom you wrote for? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?
I never planned to write fic, and in fact never bother looking for fic unless something about the show really grabs me. (To date, the only other show that's done that is The X-Files, and I never wrote anything for that fandom.)
But four years ago -- almost exactly, I checked -- I woke up with an idea for a drabble starring Jack. A few days later, I wrote some very explicit stopwatch porn, despite having never written pornography before. Considering I can really take or leave Jack, I'm still surprised that these were the first two pieces I wrote, but many, many fics later, I'm not going to complain about whatever spark convinced my brain it was time to start writing fiction.
What did it? Some of it's that I'd been watching DW since I was a teenager, and was thrilled to have it back on television. Between that, my obsessiveness about shows I fall for, and the fact that there could never be enough new episodes produced quickly enough to keep me entertained, I think my brain just decided it would start filling in thepornographic gaps for itself.
