About birdylion

Fandom Activity

Fanfiction: been writing since 2008 in German, started in English-speaking fandom in 2016
Fandom discussions: I like community spaces where these happen. Ah, the good old forum days. Tumblr and Dreamwidth are adequate replacements, and although I'm part of a few fandom discords, I don't like the walled garden approach of fandom, so here I am!
Podfic: I have dabbled in it, but although following podficcers is one of my favourite ways to find new fics, the process of making these is not for me, so I likely won't do more than the couple I already did. They can be found on ao3.
Fanbinding: I started fanbinding in 2024. I love turning favourite fanfictions into actual, physical books. When I can, I gift them to the authors too.

computers: I mean, I'm here. While I'm no programmer or web designer, I like making things, I like getting to the bottom of a practical riddle, and looking beneath the surface. My computers are usually set up with linux, which I vastly prefer to the alternatives.
textile crafts: My interest in these is born of the wish to have nice things exactly to my own specifications. I've dabbled in sewing, tailoring, quilting and latch-hook knotting.
role play games: My main offline tabletop role play game group, my LARPing group, and my forum-based, text-based role play game with another group have all been active for over 10 years now.
