Please welcome PurpleDog, y’all!
I'd like everyone to welcome Deborah aka @purpledog47 to the wild and woolly world of the tumblr side of fandom!
For those who don't know her (possibly a lot of you), D has been a Trekkie and P/C shipper since the late 80s and a Voyager fan-J/C shipper since 2012. She reads and writes in both ships and is on FFN and AO3 both - you can find her on FFN as bevfan here (https://www.fanfiction.net/u/449503/bevfan) and AO3 as purpledog (http://archiveofourown.org/users/purpledog/works). She's a great patient sounding board for your fic ideas – and I'm always grateful when she listens to my off the wall plot explanations LOL.
Also for the record! She is the reason I wrote Four. (So y'all can direct your feels outrage equally from now on ;) kidding, kidding....)
Now I'm gonna take a page from @warp6's book and attempt to do some introductions/suggestions of people for her to follow and suggest that you might want to follow her back. She might even be following you already – just give her time to learn her way around tumblr and she'll soon be binge-reblogging with the rest of us, I'm sure! ;) I'll try not to forget anyone! But add to this post if I do :)
Fellow writers you may know - @angelicsharonraydor (my favorite Kaitlin and future first woman on Mars ;) @joyful-voyager (everyone knows our Laura I think), @jhelenoftrek (aka Helen8462 – the one who wrote my Chak and Naomi adventure so awesomely), @mia-cooper (yes THE Mia Cooper who wrote The Bitter End. among other things...), @missmil (she of the Last Goodbyes trilogy), @rawkfemme (who gave us mini KJ in Thumbelina), @muldyfi (Muldy on AO3), @angrywarrior69 (she defies explanation lol – just get to know her), @carlynroth (with her Counselor series - a super interesting AU), @lodessa (alias Khaleesi and owned by Their Feline Majesties Renly and Tiberius, so you get fic AND the occasional cute creatures), @killermanatee (she's written angst and fluff and even some Mark fic), @ricepips (fascinating little ficlets found only on tumblr. Say that five times fast lol) @caladeniablue (Red Queen Running – need I say more?), and @devoverest (do not pass go or collect $200 without reading her fabulous Sam Wildman series Traveling Woman – holy shit).
Other awesome people off the top of my head include @thesearchforbluejello @cleoselene, @klugtiger, @ariella884, @galinaredreznikov, @ailtara, @weary-hearted-queen, @oh-the-profanity, @eyetagonthebridge, @inwaitforsomethingbetter, @quirkette100, @danakathrynjaneway, @captainandhercorgi, @little-tayy, @breezybree, @zjofierose, @ato-the-bean and the ever fabulous @pixiedane.
In the P/T camp we have @rikerssexblouse (RSB for short), @captacorn, @mollybecameanengineer (aka Sareki) and @alphaflyer – all great writers if you want your P/T fix.
Fellow VAMBies you might recognize - @gates-hepburn, @katesfire82, @missyhissy3, @kjaneway115, @talsi74656, @capt-nyc (aka Little Obsessions), @cheyfwriting, @spiletta42, @emmikamikatze (aka khurst), @supernovacoffee. The last two do a daily screencap series "how to (not) look at your captain/XO" – tons of caption/prompt/misinterpretation hilarity always ensues.
Of course the @voyager-book-club tumblr for all your relaunch needs and @ds9vgrconfessions for fun confessions to read, agree/disagree with and generally discuss.
Last but not least - our blessed fanartists of talented images @crisisenvyart, @writtenndust and @stasiclaire.
I know I'm forgetting people and I apologize – so please reblog, say hi to D and if I'm forgetting someone, reblog and add to this post!
