Hello!
My Name is Emrys and I have been a selfperclimed "Fangirl" for the passed decade! I entered the fandom spaces in the early 2010's and have suck around ever since, adding more fandoms to my ever growing list of inters as I have gone!
I began my love affair with fandom after reading "The Hunger Games" tribology while I was still an elementary school, engaging for my first time in the fandoms community by attending the midnight premiers of the lest three movies. After letting "Twilight" and the rest of the serious by Stephany Myer take over my life for a few years, I really began my deep dive in to fandom after reading the "Harry Potter" serious. It was after reading about Harry and his advancers for the first time (of many) that I read my first fanfiction (it was called "In a Month of Sundays) and began seeking out more people who share my interest.
After engaging in primarily in book fandoms, I was introduced to anime and its community while I was in my first of middle school. Yes, I was a cringey "Anime girl" in middle school, who not only watched anime but also read mange and always carried some way to large hardcover book she was reading. It was during this time I began to attend Comic Conventions, while still engaging in fandoms both online and in-person. It was also when I started Cosplaying, a hobby I still persue when I have time, but all of those cosplay's were very bad and will not being seeing the light of day anytime soon.
During my time in Hight School I played in my first Dungeons and Dragons Campaign and begin to play other RPG's and table tops games with my friends. This cultivated with me begin to leading various Dungeons and Dragons games (being the DM) and leading student groups to conventions such as Awesome Con. I continue being active in the literality fandom by becoming the President of a competitive book readying team (Battle of the Books, its real I promise!) and competing and winning second in states in the fashion designed category with the theme of Cosplay for the Technology Students Associations (TSA).
I am no battling my way threw collage and look forward to pursuing a career where I can bring in my love fandom to the world! A fun fact is that this whole blog is being created for a class, Communication 410: Digital and Social Media Technologies!

I know what you are thinking " Her real name is surly not Emrys"!
Well you would be right! I have never used my real name in any fandom context before and you will quickly find that due to a lot of fandom being online lot of its members and creators use pseudonyms! These pseudonym normally come form their users gamer tags, Instagram users names, discord names, table top characters they have played or their fanfciton author names! In my case Emrys was my first Dungeons and Dragons character! She was a half-elf Ranger who had long since been retired form the table, but still lives on it via my online name! Now i got the name form the BBC show "Merlin", and now I know it also means "Immortal" in Welsh!
