OTW Fannews: Shouting it Out Loud

Banner by doughtier of a young woman in black and white shouting yelling with arms spread with the title 'Shouting it Out Loud'


The Deseret News spoke with various fans about how fandom has changed their lives. “'I started to feed back into nerd culture and all those happy feelings, basically everything that fandom gives you — not just escapism, but the immediacy of enjoying something with someone else,' Smith said. “'I realized nerdiness isn’t being happy alone, it’s about being happy with other people. Nerdiness saved me from myself.'”

A new profession, a new relationship, understanding yourself, your favorite reads — it’s all part of being a fan http://bit.ly/1OOSxzf
