- wintercreek: DW: live a life less ordinary - On the one hand, I love how word-of-mouth Dreamwidth is. People ask questions all over the place - here, on LJ, in comments, wherever! - and get answers, because that's the kind of community we are. On the other hand, I feel like there's a fair bit that's getting dropped. So here is my small contribution to DW knowledge for new folks -
- alchemia: Representing Autism: Culture, Narrative, Fascination - There has been an incredible increase in contemporary narratives dealing with autism, but despite the books, articles, movies and television shows, there is still very little understanding about what it means to be autistic. -

- cimorene: Why DW is a better fandom platform than LJ in my estimation - when I look at LJ as a fandom platform - which is what I use it for - I find it wanting. I now put the number of major, giant fandom communities deleted by LJ at three: [info]fandom_wank, [info]pornish_pixies, and [info]scans_daily -
- rodo: Living Two Lives - A Story of Bilingual Fan-dom - I suppose all of you who are multifannish know at least to some degree what I am talking about, because essentially, I am talking about being in two fandoms at once. But while most people experience two fandoms as two different things they're interested in, for me, it is the same thing, in two languages. -
