Poll: When fan fiction meets real life, what happens?

[thefourthvine]

In America at this time of year, we get extremely used to answering invasive questions from total strangers. So I thought I'd conduct a poll that could yield potentially interesting results.

Basically, I'm curious about how you handle the interaction between your real life and your fan life; as someone who just recently invited a real-life, pre-fandom friend to view this rather fannish LJ, I find this a topic of relevance right now. And it's sure less depressing than all the political polls I've been reading.

ooooh. Good, seriously interesting poll! Pretty much everybody in my life knows, b/c I'm surrounded by gay men who find my hobby strange, but interesting, and they tend to be helpful with, uh. Technical questions. But most of my family doesn't know, and I've started to get twitchy about the fact that if you google my email, it's REALLY OBVIOUS who I am (mostly b/c I have a 9 year old sister who's becoming rapidly internet savvy). Gonna have to do something about that...
