Frankenstein's Meme: Q6

Q6: What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom? What fandom was it? Not necessarily your oldest fandom, but a fandom that you started and still continue to read/write/create content for in some way.

The answer here is mostly easy - Doctor Who. Though to be perfectly honest I think I was technically writing Star Wars fanfic (age about 6) and collecting those Star Wars cards, before I was doing anything particularly fannish about Doctor Who. But there's a point where fannishness merges back into simply being a child in the playground and I can barely recall a time when we didn't play both Doctor Who and Star Wars (and sometimes both at once, because why not?) regularly in the playground.

That said, my engagement with Star Wars these days is mostly through reading fic by thisbluespirit or rain_sleet_snow and I read it mostly because I like those authors not because I seek it out.

So, yes, Doctor Who, for, umm... going on 44 years?
