The First Baby Step

[polarissruler]

After recently I made a post in my journal about my first fandom, I decided to ask - how did it began to you? What was your first fandom? How did you found it? Did you start writing/drawing/reading/whatever else first? And do you look fondly on those good old days, or not so much?

I was v. precocious, and my father (otherwise a dickhead) took me. Alas! It turned out that I am actually not into big crowded loud spaces, and it was full of middle aged dudes in velour with no time for an 8-year-old running around underfoot. I'm still scared of going to cons now too.

Ouch, that sounds bad. Poor kid.

I'm sure it wasn't as bad as I remember it! But I was skeeered.
