hello! - name: Linda, but online most people know me as Mal; either's fine. - location: a wee hamlet near Eureka, California, up in the NW corner of the state. Cows and trees, trees and cows. - team/level: Mystic/27 - favorite pokémon: Bellsprout & its evolutions... actually, all of the plants. - favorite thing to do in PokeGo: Collect them ALL. (Hard to do up here. I have such big city envy, you have no idea.) - I got into PokeGo because... While I'm ambulatory, I have multiple health issues that make walking anywhere from mildly painful to excruciating. But it's really good for me in many ways and it gives me a huge mood boost, so I picked up PokeGo as a way to get myself out there and walk. In combination with my FitBit, it's a remarkably effective motivator.
let me tell you about myself! I'm 58, straight, cis-female, forcibly retired from an IT career over a decade ago by disability (refractory major depressive disorder plus a handful of physical issues). Fannish, friendly, easy-going. I used to write a bit, but antidepressants turn off my ability to write, so it appears that's not going to happen again. Since then I've done a fair amount of podficcing. - other fandoms: Many! Chiefly due South/C6D, Gateverse, BtVS, HP, and I read and podfic in lots of others. - other interests: Dogs are my favorite people. Plants make me happy; I want to grow all of them. - contents of my journal: Lately, not much, mostly RL and health updates on rare occasions. I'd like to start posting again, and I'm hoping this will help motivate me. - other social media channels: LJ, just joined Imzy but haven't done anything yet. Does AO3 count? I'm malnpudl everywhere except Facebook (which I loathe and use mostly to keep up with family).
free space! Anyone is welcome to follow/friend me; no need to ask. I would probably like to follow you, if you're reading this, though I may well lurk quietly a good deal of the time and comment only occasionally.
