Hey there - wondering if you have a link good source where I can read a summary about DAYD and what happened in that community. The more our friends group reads about this, the more curious we become about his past behavior... Thanks! K
Unfortunately, I’m not sure whether there is a concise summary of what happened in the DAYDverse community/cult. Parts III-IV of the timeline have a lot of information about it, but they’re pretty long. I would definitely recommend reading the transcript of Andy’s appearance on Potter Fic Weekly for a good look at how he was behaving and presenting himself at that time. This post of mine talks about the evolution of Andy’s cult-building, and between the two of us, I think Flikky and I put together a pretty good outline of how Andy created a hierarchy in the group and made so much of what he was doing seem “normal”.
Some former DAYDians have also spoken out:
DAYDian Q&A at fail-fandomanon
Aja’s interview with the same DAYDian
Aja’s interview with another DAYDian
Another former DAYDian on FFA
And another!
Life has me feeling a little scatter-brained at the moment, so if there is a good summary out there that’s slipped my mind, I hope someone will link to it in a reblog!
