Hey everyone! I thought it would be nice if we could have a spot to keep and keep up-to-date with which authors are willing to share where they're from/born/lived.

Inspired by @jandjsalmon's search for her pen- and ultimate victims. I mean HELLO FELLOW KIDS. Yes. That's what they are.

So, of course, it is rather bad fandom form to just post willy-nilly where someone lives, no matter how much you think they won't mind it, or even if they've shared it with some others. But this is still a courtesy we should uphold.

So! Would anyone like to share what country they're from with a link to their fanfiction writing page (because we're looking for 10 readers from 10 different countries as stated here:

<< Authors: Read 10 fics written by authors from ten different countries (Tumblr is often good at figuring this out, or you already know, or they mention things in their author's notes… or even just ask around politely for 'volunteers' of a sort!). >>

If you feel comfortable enough letting people know your age, as well (please be careful, those under 20), there are two more tasks, one for a fic written by someone who is over 45, the other younger than 18... thus the age warning to the youngs. If you are under than 18 I'll just delete it, but 18+ I know you can use your brain for these sorts of things. For the 18 thing, to protect everyone, unless you already know a fic writer under 18, are one yourself (that can also count!), or just randomly chanced upon one, that's great! If not of that comes to pass, you can use one of the Swappables. Just to be safe, y'all, eh?

You can also share friends' info as long as they know and/or have given blanket permission for these sorts of things.

Let me start...

I'm between 18 and 45 (so do not meet either of those tasks!) but I am from Canada, so if you can't find another Canuck to read from, I'm here! *clumsy curtsy* So yes let's keep a list, and remember no one is obligated!!!! This is so as to help people connect where otherwise they may remain quiet and pass on the task!
