What languages do you speak?
-only English :( I keep trying to learn Spanish but...

What are some of your favorite hobbies?
-writing and reading mainly

What television shows and movies do you like?

What books or other written fandoms are you into?
-Mainly into the Silmarillion fandom right now! I'm reading my way (slowly) through all the Tolkien works - I also really like reading Narnia fic - non-fandom I like reading a variety of different poetry (Richard Siken, Traci Brimhall, Ada Limón) & I LOVE The Raven Cycle

About Your Blog

What is your Dreamwidth blog like?
-It's going to be very fandom based, maybe a personal post here and there but very few if any, I do have a very specific tagging system so it'll be easy to filter by fandom

How active is it?
-Ideally I'll be posting a few times a week (right now I'm posting a lot because I'm archiving tumblr stuff)

What are your most common topics? (Use Manage Tags and Sort by: usage to find this.)
-web weaving (that's what I'm archiving from tumblr) - I imagine it'll eventually be the Silmarillion though

Is your blog more text-heavy or image-heavy?
-image heavy right now, will probably switch to text-heavy later

Is it all open, all friendslocked, or somewhere in between?
-at the moment everything is public and I don't really see myself ever changing that honestly - if I really want something to be private I will simply not be posting it on the internet haha

What kinds of friends would you like to attract to your blog?
-please talk to me about fandom! I really want to discuss all the silly little characters that constantly live in my brain

Do you participate in creative bingo, fests, challenges, memes, holiday festivities, or other blogging events? If so, what are some of your favorite ones?
-I do sometimes! I don't participate in a lot but I'm going to do the tolkien reverse big bang this summer which will be fun!

What are your policies on friending and granting access, if any?
-You automatically have access since all my stuff is public and as far as friending I suppose we will...have to become friends? And then we can friend each other? I'm only half-sure I understand how this part works honestly.
