So many fandoms. What’s yours?
My fandom started with Harry Potter, which still exists. I went through a Twilight phase and love Disneyland but currently a new love of Star Wars has emerged.
How did you become interested in this fandom?
I have always enjoyed the Star Wars movies but was never a super fan until I had my son. Now at 3-years old, he is just as in love with Star Wars as I am. It is so exciting to share such a thing with your children, at almost 4-years old, we talk a lot about all the different planets the characters come from and visit. We are definitely fans of the Dark Side but some days we do pretend to be Luke and Rey.
How do you subtly (or not-so-subtly!) work your fandom into everyday life?
I not so subtly have two Star Wars key chains on my key ring and have an array of fandom clothing I wear, I love my work appropriate pieces like cardigans or bracelets or my everyday tank tops that I can wear anywhere!
