Identity Crises
Fan-tastic thoughts
Over at Study of Anime, Charles Dunbar is presenting a series of solicited essays that deal with fandom and identity. Charles broke the ice with his initial post, which was followed by Brendan Foley (DJ Indy), Crimm Moga, and Tangles. In line with this seeming affection for pseudonyms, I was a likely candidate for the fifth post. I detail my rise from passive consumer to reluctantly active aniblogger and more as well as the reasons behind what has felt like a fairly swift evolution. So click on over and read what these people are saying. You might find a kindred soul, bits and pieces of yourself scattered amongst many a consciousness, or a completely new way of looking at who you are. The Identity (ID) Project is an ongoing series of posts, so your reading backlog’s only gonna get bigger the longer you procrastinate!
