HD-Erised 2016: Veterans and Newcomers

[snowgall]

As I was looking over the anonymous masterlist for this year's hd_erised fest, I was struck by how many veterans of the HD fandom were still creating fanworks for the fest, even as many newcomers are joining for the first time. I think this speaks to how popular HD fandom has been and still remains!

So everyone can see what I mean, I've organized this year's participants into a table sorted by the year they first published an HD fic or artwork, so far as I know*

*I tried really hard to get accurate data by stalking everyone's LJ and AO3 accounts, but I'm just one person and might have missed something, especially if your LJ is flocked or your early works were on a deleted archive somewhere. So if there are mistakes, just let me know and I'll fix them :)

I think I posted my first work in 2010? but I didn't participate in hd_erised so I'm not on this list obviously! lol but it is funny that there's no one from 2010 on here.

[snowgall]

I can confirm that my database also thinks you posted your first work in 2010 :) I'm pretty sure that's right, because I worked on your masterlist last year, so I was poking through your LJ rather thoroughly!

Other authors I think began in 2010 (but who didn't participate in the fest this year) include khasael, tigersilver, josephinestone, kjp_013, sara holmes, and 0idontknow0.

Also, if we consider femmequixotic and noeon as a unit, I think they posted their first fic together in 2010, so maybe that should count!

Oh wow! Your record keeping blows my mind! lol
