ficticons1. Why did you sign up for Dreamwidth?
Honestly? To follow![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
scans_daily. I'd started following them on LJ, went with them to IJ briefly, and now I'm here.
I like what I've found at DW very much, though, whereas when I was at IJ it really was a 'focus on the specific community only and not much else'. I think part of the reason why I'm more interested in being active on DW as well as LJ (but not IJ) is because there was a lot of DW discussion going on at LJ at the time that I was starting to get into fannish activity there. So I read a lot about DW.
And![[staff profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user_staff.png)
denise's news posts were the first I enjoyed reading and really paid attention to! The willingness of DW's staff to talk and listen to its users is also very appealing, even if I don't do much talking myself or participate in life at DW a great deal. I'm working on changing at least the latter part of that.
2. Why did you choose your journal name?
This journal has the same name as my fandom journal on LJ -![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ficticons. It's an amalgam of 'fiction' and 'icons' - the two main things that I wanted that journal - and now this one - for.
3. Do you crosspost? Why or why not?
Sometimes. Looking at my crossposts to LJ, I see that the last time I did it was in August last year. I guess what I wanted was to have the content that I originally posted here more easily accessible to me when I was logged in to LJ (which probably means it was before I changed my settings so that I'm always logged on to DW on my PC). I do have an icon post that is worded exactly the same both here and on LJ, though - I guess I forgot to add the crosspost tag from here, or I posted there first and here later.
4. What do you do online when you're not on DW?
5. How about when you're not on the computer?
6. What do you wish people who read your journal knew about you?
7. What is your favorite community on Dreamwidth?
8. What community do you wish was more active?
9. Are there two people on your reading list that you think should meet?
10. Tell me about your default icon.
11. What features do you think Dreamwidth should have that it doesn't currently?
12. What do you consider the five most "telling" interests from the list on your profile? Why?
13. Do you have any unique interests on your user profile? What are they? How'd they get there?
14. Did you have a gateway fandom? Still in it? Why or why not? Is there a community for it on DW?
15. What's your current obsession? What about it captures your imagination?
16. What are you glad you did but haven't really had a chance to post about?
17. How many people on your reading list do you know IRL?
18. What don't you talk about here, either because it's too personal or because you don't have the energy?
19. Any questions from the audience?
20. Yes, but what are your thoughts on yaoi?
21. What's your favorite thing about Dreamwidth?
