Goodreads

Wed Aug 3, 2011, 9:35 AM


W.T.F.


Yeah, it's been centuries since I've set foot on dA soil, and my reasons are as follows:

a) My fandoms are all gone. I threw out my PS2 and now I've forgotten everything I ever knew about Kingdom Hearts.
b) Moved house and got busy.
c) Discovered the true excellence that is Goodreads; it has become my new interwebz playhouse.

Seriously, though. People polled on my page, and nobody has a Goodreads account. Heck, five people asked me what Goodreads is! Goodreads is the biggest book rating and reviewing community on the web, and as unappealing as that may sound, it's actually incredibly awesome. You can meet so many hilarious people, and participate in book swaps, write your own reviews and gain followers and friends. It's so freaking awesome.

The thing about Goodreads is that we need more manga fans. There are literally four reviews of ElfenLied there, one of which belongs to me. The most reviewed manga is probably Death Note, but there are hundreds more on the database. Even Fullmetal Alchemist is being sadly ignored!

By the way, the most fun way to get into Goodreads is by reading and following YA book reviews. YA is so dysfunctional right now that people have kind of stopped taking a lot of it seriously (especially the Twilight-esque crap) and as a result there are so many incredibly hilarious reviews posted up. There's also a huge base of pro-feminism Iron Ladies, and let's face it, that's always great to get behind.

That's literally all my interwebz news. I'm still working on my manuscript, just polishing it up, so not much is going on in terms of my fanfiction or my visual art (I have a huge sketchpad that I regularly use, but I don't have anything that I can post online). I kind of miss all you lovely dA darlings, and I do firmly believe that one day, I shall be back on dA with a vengeance. But right now Goodreads has me in her evil clutches, and let's face it: I'm not making much of an effort to escape.

P.S. Got a new kitty in the spring. He's a sweetie. Four months old, and a biter. Needs his balls chopped off pronto.

Lol.

I am from Germany, lived a year in Denmark as an exchange student, and just moved to another town.
Where in Canada do you live now?

Ontario, in the South. S'pretty cool. And you're lucky; Germany is a beautiful place. I always wanted to take a trip there.

Maybe some day!
