2017revivalName: Jenett (which I go by in most circumstances outside work these days)
Age: 41
Location: Massachusetts
(I have also lived in Minnesota and Maine, or as I say, "Places that get a lot of snow and start with M, though I have no desire to try Montana.")
Describe yourself in five sentences or less: I like process geeking stuff and figuring out how it works and how to make it work better (or explain it better, or help other people find things that make their lives better). I'm a librarian who does a lot of fascinating and unique reference questions (always fun, but also immediately identifiable if I mention where, so I don't in public space under this name), and spend a lot of the rest of my time talking about modern Paganism in some form (my form of it is initiatory religious witchcraft).
I have problems with conciseness, but people who like reading what I write don't seem to mind (and comment fairly regularly that it's well-organised geekery at length).
Other topics of interest include knitting, bits of fannishness, legal stuff related to privacy, copyright, and related topics, and making my life work better. I have multiple chronic health issues which vary from 'my life is set up so they aren't really a bother' to 'argh, I cannot anything' depending on how many of them are flaring at the same time, and I talk about that (and how to make that work better) a fair bit too.
Top 5 fandoms: I have complicated thoughts about the Potterverse (see my profile for some of why), and putter through other interests with a preference for shows where people are competent and the show assumes its viewers are intelligent (Leverage, the Librarians, various mystery series, etc.)
I mostly post about: Daily life, interesting reference questions answered at work, state of the me for tracking purposes, and current projects I'm working on. (Right now there is a lot of copyright commentary because I'm in the last couple of weeks of the CopyrightX class) People often particularly like my librarian smash posts, in which I explain how to research in answer to someone doing it badly. (They have been complimented as exceedingly polite.)
My last three posts were about: A filtered post, a public post with Worldbuilding Exchange recommendations, a state of the Jen post with notes from Friday's doctor's appointment, and a brief amusing copyright note from last week's lectures.
Frequency: I post multiple times a week on average and read multiple times a day. I am not good about commenting (having imprinted online in the Usenet days where commenting just to comment without much content was scorned) but if you're on my subscription list, I'm reading what you post.
Most of my posts are locked, but I'm amiable about adding people to access and use filtered posts for things I want to discuss with a tighter group of people (usually people who know me pretty well and are interested in that topic.)
