#BELIEVEINSWANQUEEN I know I'm super late, but I want to participate in phase 2, so I figured I should go ahead and introduce myself properly. I am Swen My name is Sam, I'm 30, and I live near Orlando, FL. I currently teach high school English, but I'm about to be unemployed because I just can't continue to be a part of this broken public education system... But I'm sure I'll find something else to do. *fingers crossed* I'm a Kinsey 4 queer weirdo - usually just identify as a lesbian because that's easier & I'm in a LDR with @takemetoyourlieder (Alex - aka the most awesome person on the planet). We fangeek together. I'm obsessed with Orphan Black, Kelly Clarkson, Castle, Marvel movies, the 90s in general & of course Swan Queen! P.S. I wore this shirt when I met Lana at Spooky Empire last year and she said she liked it. *squee!!!* I love Swan Queen I'm one of those weirdos who just happened to tune in to the pilot of OUAT when it first aired. Partly because the idea intrigued me, largely because I liked JMo on House. Then Henry dragged Emma to Storybrooke where she met Regina, and the way they interacted with each other failed - epically - to come across as heterosexual. So god help my poor queer soul, I was hooked immediately. As a creative writing major in college, I learned a lot about story telling, and from day one, Swan Queen as a slow burn love story has always been the best, most interesting potential outcome for OUAT. I love Swen At the end of season 1 (which, let's all remember how epic season 1 truly was) I didn't know how I'd get through hiatus without my weekly dose of SQ on my screen, but then there was Swen. My tumblr dash was full of fanart and gifs, fanfic sites had quality full-length stories, people wanted to analyze the ship in depth. And suddenly the show became secondary - especially as the seasons went on and canon became almost unbearable at times. There is so much talent and passion in Swen, it's truly amazing. I love you awesome nerds. <3

Hey how do I join? What forms do I need to fill out

Hey! :) Welcome. You’re in. There isn’t much to it, did you do a #believeinswanqueen? If yes, I’ll reblog that, if not, it’d be great if you fill out the intro post so we can get to know you a bit.

Other than that, you can check out the posts I tagged as relevant. There’s some more info there about the group and what we’re trying to do here and all that.

[swen30plus-blog]

Hey y’all!

Thank you for following swen30plus. Since we got a bunch of new people today, I thought I’d welcome you to the group. :)

First of all, please introduce yourselves. If you’ve already done #believeinswanqueen but your post hasn’t been reblogged yet, let us know and we’ll get right on that.

If you don’t wanna do #bisq for whatever reason, please at least consider filling out the intro post. It’s not a requirement, we’d just love to get to know you.

Feel free to contribute to the round robin, answer questions from the tagging post or contribute to the discussion I tried to start.

Of course all of you can always start your own thing, just add swen30plus in the first 5 tags of the post you’re making and we’ll reblog it here.

Anyway, welcome aboard and have fun making new Swen friends!

xoxo

Done :) And welcome! If you don’t wanna do #bisq, please consider filling out the intro post though. It’s not a requirement, just to get to know you. :)

#BelieveInSwanQueen

I am Swen:

Hi. I'm Anne.

I’m a Danish 38 year old lesbian, living in Denmark with my American wife and our 4 year old daughter. Danish is my native tongue but I speak English on a daily basis. We also lived in Sweden for a year, so I’ve got Swedish covered too.

I have many passions - SwanQueen is one of them. Others are reading (fanfiction among other things), writing, watching Netflix/series (recently finished Drop Dead Diva and Grace and Frankie - but I’m looking forward to Orange Is The New Black and Rizzoli & Isles). 

I love a good (and not so good) crime book/movie/series.

I also love cooking. A lot.

I don’t comment much on Tumblr but I will like or occasionally reblog stuff.

I love SwanQueen:

Action speaks louder than words!!! And the looks those two give each other...

I loved Regina Mills from the very beginning (also the Evil Queen, but Regina the most). Emma Swan grew on me. And the scene at the mine did me over. Viva la SwanQueen! 

I think Lana Parrilla does a most exquisite job channeling Regina Mills/Evil Queen.

I love Swen:

For all the positive support, the fanfics, the gifs, the analysis, the photos, the manip, the art work.... 

You guys rock! 

Thank you!

swen30+ intros

Since a bunch of you who haven’t done the #believeinswanqueen thing (yet) are following me, I thought we could do this and I can add you with these posts too.

name:

age:

from:

gender, pronouns, orientation etc:

main tumblr:

sq tumblr:

other tumblrs:

twitter etc:

started watching/shipping:

anything else you want us to know?

add a gif?

Just fill out what you want to answer with your info and reblog it or post it. If you post it, make sure to add swen30plus in the tags so I’ll see it.

You can add a photo of yourself if you want but of course you don’t have to. And you don’t have to answer all of them, or can add other things you want to share. Just introduce yourselves and have fun with it. :)

Of course all of you who have done #bisq already can do this too.

One of the many things I love about the #believeinswanqueen tag is seeing quite a few other swan queen shippers here who are in the 30+ age bracket.

Let’s be real, tumblr can be an awkward place for us 30plusers, right? I mean I love getting to know all other Swen regardless of age, but there’s a difference when you’re talking to somebody who’s about your age.

Anyway, I’ve talked to a couple of people since the #bisq thing started who told me things along the lines of ‘omg I’m so glad I’m not the only old fart here’. And since I kept seeing posts of other 30+ Swen I figured I’d make this blog for us old people.

So far I only reblogged the ones who had their age in the post. But I noticed several of you didn’t include your age and I have a strong suspicion some of you are 30+ as well. If that’s the case, just drop me a line.

let me know

if you don’t wanna do the #believeinswanqueen thing for whatever reason, but still wanna be added here

if you don’t want to be added here but I already reblogged your post, I’ll delete it again

if you already did the #bisq without your age but want it reblogged anyway

if I missed your post and haven’t reblogged it yet

if you wanna help me run this thing

anything else

I’m tracking the swen30plus tag now, so if you have anything else you want me to reblog, throw it in there. (but remember the post only shows up in the first 5 tags you use)

Lastly, keep being awesome Swen of all ages! Much love to all of you!
