I started actively getting back into reading about 5 years ago, mostly leaning into science fiction and fantasy. Prior to that I had been reading a lot of indie comics and manga. I love services that let me find people reading similar things and then seeing what else theyve read that I might also like. I work in animation (kids tv stuff, mostly) and its fun to think about which kinds of stories get told in which medium, and what that medium lends to the story. Anyway, nice to meet you.
