Hi everyone! I'm Ruby (he/they), and I'm very new to Dreamwidth/LJ-format, so please bare with me while I figure it out.

This space is mostly going to be dedicated to my physical creative pursuits. I crochet, bind books/fanfic, tat (lacemaking not tattoos), and more. I mostly just want to document my projects here and talk about them a little bit. I also post about them a little over on my crafting side-Tumblr [tumblr.com profile] hook-line-and-crocheter

That being said, I am open to possible including a few more topics on this blog

I write, mostly fanfic but I have some original ideas floating around too. You can read my fics on [archiveofourown.org profile] fourohfourerror, and I post about them a little on my writing side-Tumblr [tumblr.com profile] fourohfourrealitynotfound. My current fandoms I write for are Voltron and Lockwood & Co., but I'm re-watching Supernatural with the intent of getting into those fics soon. I currently don't plan on posting original writing that much beyond the snippets I occasionally do for flashfictionfriday on Tumblr

I'm aroace and also enjoy discussing aspec topics (asexual and aromantic identities, community history, and the breakdown of social relationship hierarchies).

And yeah, I think that's it. Feel free to reach out to me, give me Dreamwidth advice, recommend communities (or music or books or shows of whatever).

Hello! Welcome! :)

I joined from tumblr a while back and remember how much of a change it was, so I have a few helpful guides and resources that will hopefully get you started. This and this are guides written specifically for people transitioning from tumblr (the second one has a few outdated bits, but still has a lot of helpful tips). One cool feature that I love taking advantage of over here is the use of multiple icons/profile-pics. You can have up to fifty, I think, with a free account and up to 150 with a paid account. Very fun way to show off fandom interests. Also, you can set the level of privacy you want on each post. And tags work differently here, but they're great for organizing your content.

A few helpful guide for the basics:
Dreamwidth 101
Making Friends on Dreamwidth
Dreamwidth Starter Kit

A couple good communities for meeting people are [community profile] addme and [community profile] addme_fandom. Also, [community profile] fandomcalendar and [site community profile] dw_community_promo are good for finding active communities to join.

Hope some of this helps! Feel free to reach out with any questions! <3

Welcome!

It's good to see new people here.

[community profile] reddit_refugees, [community profile] getting_started, and [community profile] dw101 are all places to find resources about what you can do on DW and how to do them. My Twitter Exodus post also gathers many how-to materials.

>>This space is mostly going to be dedicated to my physical creative pursuits. I crochet, bind books/fanfic, tat (lacemaking not tattoos), and more. I mostly just want to document my projects here and talk about them a little bit.<<

I admire those crafts. Consider featuring them with recurring posts, so folks know what your blog is mainly about. You might also like [community profile] crafty and [community profile] fanbinding.

>> I'm re-watching Supernatural with the intent of getting into those fics soon.<<

That canon is so great for fanfic. Don't limit yourself to the obvious. One of my favorites is the least likely mashup ever:
"Gone With the Wendigo" by bellatemple

>>I'm aroace and also enjoy discussing aspec topics (asexual and aromantic identities, community history, and the breakdown of social relationship hierarchies).<<

I have lots of aspec and other QUILTBAG folks in my audience and more than one series with aspec leads. See a list of my QUILTBAG characters.

Swing by [community profile] allbingo in February for the Valentines fest, which customarily includes platonic prompts for aspec options. See also the Asexuality & Demisexuality premade prompt list on the Bingo Card Generator. People can play any card at any time.

And yeah, I think that's it. Feel free to reach out to me, give me Dreamwidth advice, recommend communities (or music or books or shows of whatever).
