The Snowflake Challenge, day five

[scripsi]

I'm a little behind schedule...

Day 5

In your own space, talk about your fannish origin story. How did you come to fandom, why did you choose your fannish name, do you have more than one secret identity? Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

As I have mentioned before, I got propelled into fandom by a still from Peter Pan (2003). My nick has to do with a much older infatuation, though. As a child I was in love with Rita Hayworth, especially in Salome. I am also an Oscar Wilde fan and his play Salome is one of my favourites. So I choose Dancingsalome. I don't really have any other nics, apart from being Salomedancing at ff.net as my a first account there got deleted... The reason my fanfic-journal is called scripsi is because I was rather active writing about other things on my more private journal. It mean "I write" in Latin.

Rita Hayworth was a beautiful and classy lady.

Yes, I think I could have done worse. :)
