Hey! So I'm not sure how popping this forum is anymore, seems to still be a thing so I thought I'd come back on and maybe I'd make it a semi-habit again. I'm a big Buffy fan and I have been for a while. Not as long as some of you but long for my own life, as I watched it in middle school and I'm about to finish up my undergrad this June. I have so much merch, I can't wait to share some of it with y'all who probably have the exact same things and better etc. This forum has such a special place in my heart because I found Buffy and had no one to talk to about it then I came on here and my life changed slightly. I came on here before I even knew Tumblr or Twitter were a thing. I left it though and migrated to tumblr. I was a baby then and I think maybe a forum might be better!
I have so much to say honestly. I'm such a fan. I grew up right by where they filmed, right by the high school and her home and super close to the spot they filmed Will's big s6 scene. Then guess where I decided to go to college.... Yep, UCLA. Buffy being filmed here was POSSIBLY a reason why I chose to come here. Since then I've written a couple Buffy related papers but I'd never share those cos I think they were a bit underdeveloped. However I AM working on a book focusing on Buffy. It actually is a Poetry book that also focuses on race. If anyone would be interested in talking to me about that, I'd totally love the conversation! I'd love to hear others opinions and even anyone's rec's for people's articles/essays/books etc. I've found a lot but I want more! It's going to be a thing I'd really want to traditionally publish! I'm doing an independent study class that I'm just focusing on finishing a good draft of that book. It might be around 160/170 pages? Which is quite a bit for a book of poetry lol.
Aside from that, all I do is talk about Buffy and it's pretty fun. I don't know many big Buffy fans IRL but I have a few. A casual friend of mine used to host the Slayerfest98 Podcast, so thats cool. OH! I also went to the Buffering the Vampire Slayer first Buffy Prom in LA! It was amazing, there was an amazing Kendra cosplayer, 90's music and merch! I can talk more about that too.
I think that's most of my Buffy stuff. Aside from that, I am a queer mexican-american (Chicano) dude from LA, english major, writer. I love tv, movies and books. All types of narratives basically. I have a girl dog named Hades and a hamster named Appa. I hope you are all doing fine and I'd love to be friends!
