Hello!
Hi there! My name is Janie, and I thought I'd make a post here as a sort of Wanted poster for DW friends! I was a big fan of LJ back in the day (used it from 2003 until 2012 when things tailed off for a variety of reasons) and I've really missed the LJ flist vibe ever since. DW definitely feels like the nicest place around offering anything similar to that, but I only know one or two other users and communities (where I remember meeting most of my LJ friends, or in comments on other people's journals) seem pretty slow.
So let's give this a go instead! I'm a bit of an old hippie, in my mid-thirties and British, big fan of tea (of course), books, crafting, journalling in all formats, nature, paganism, tarot, and animals. I live with my partner and our cat, am attempting to grow vegetables and cultivate a wild meadow in our garden, read all the time and am trying to get back into decent writing habits (creative and journal-wise). Technically I'm an academic in English Literature; in reality I am unemployed and unsure what I want to do with myself other than grow herbs and read.
If anyone out there misses the old LJ spirit and thinks we might get along, please feel free to add me! I'll make you a virtual cuppa and do my best to be a good commenter as in days past :)
(Oh, and fandom wise - there's a small list of things I'm into in my profile but I'm not active anywhere, and I'm not sure I want to be at the moment, but I never find fandom geekery offputting and am always up for chatting about the things I love!)
Hope to meet some of you lovely folk soon!
