Snowflake Challenge 10: Fandom Firsts
In your own space, talk about one of your fandom firsts.
When I was a teenager, there was no internet and I had never read fan fiction written by others. I don't think I knew it even existed - I had no way of finding out. I joined a science fiction club and it was great meeting fellow fans.
One day, I saw someone at the club with a publication that was a collection of Phantom of the Opera fan fiction - my mind was blown. Not that it existed, but that someone had gone to the trouble of painstakingly putting it together and physically printing it out.
That was a fandom first I remember to this day.
