Updates!

I’m surprised, thrilled, and amazed at the interest and enthusiasm people have shown for Fandom Old! Thank you so much for your help and patience, I appreciate it so much.

You’re all suggesting excellent topics, so I’m going to go through the intro post’s notes in the next week or so and start gathering those. I’ll put together a separate post with an updated topics list because I think it’s fun to see the breadth of knowledge and experiences our fandom community has to offer.

I’m also going to be sharing more information in the next week or so with folks who’ve shown interest in coming on the show. As I mentioned before, I’m especially interested in chatting with with people who’ve been active in different fandom spaces than mine and / or that often get overlooked in fandom histories, so fans of color, queer and trans fans, and older fans (50+). If you’ve raised your hand, thank you! I’ll be in touch with more info soon.

More info on the plan:

I work full-time, so interviews and editing happens at night and on-weekends. As I was planning the podcast, I knew I’d want this to be a sustainable project, so my plan is to have an initial 12ish-episode season and see what’s working and what’s not, tweak anything that needs tweaking, and then start planning the next season, assuming all goes well.

I also want to make sure that the podcast is published on a consistent schedule, so I want to have a good chunk of episodes fully completed before I published the first one live, while also having most (if not all) guests scheduled for the season. I have several already scheduled, so realistically that means it’ll probably be at least a few weeks before the podcast debuts and possibly as much as a month. (I’d love to move more quickly, but as one person, that’s probably impossible).

Lastly, I plan for the show to be available wherever you get your podcasts (except for maybe on Audible, because I’m not sure how that works),

Thank you again, all!

Good Touches: A list compiled by Martin K. Blackwood

  • Hold his scarred hand. He can still feel the warmth.
  • Brush the wispy hairs escaping his bun from the back of his neck to get a soft smile.
  • The wrinkle on his forehead will smooth out if you kiss it.
  • Kissing his face anywhere has the same effect. Also brings out a smile. Especially lots of kisses right in a row.
  • Run your fingers through his hair after he takes it down before bed, and he’ll push against your hand like a cat.
  • (collect more evidence that Jon Is Actually A Cat)
  • Pull his feet into your lap. Ignore his protests, don’t tickle, just hold them till he relaxes.
  • That little space at the base of his spine, just below the waistband? Pet it.  Kiss it. Yes, that’s probably purring you hear.
  • (Jon IS Actually A Cat)
  • He’ll pretend to sleep if you nudge him onto his belly and stroke his spine.
  • On a good day, you can trace his scars. Remind him that he’s beautiful so that he has more good days.
