❝ I knew I wanted to be an actress when I was three but I didn’t know that’s what an actress was. I just knew I wanted to make people laugh and entertain and it just stuck. It was always what I wanted to do and no one in my family ever told me I couldn’t, which makes me so grateful to have because I know not everyone gets that instant support. ❞ — Sharon Rooney for 1883 Magazine

“How many moments did I miss like that? How many times had I let Chloe down when she needed some support? Needed a friend?”

Ten years. Who'd have thought. Feels like ten minutes.

So fabulous to see you @endemictoearth and @mirandasmadeofstone and @bitchy-broken all of whom brought such joy with your words and your kindnesses.

It was such a special time and I thank everyone who was part of it.

I stumbled into fandom via gif sets on tumblr, just in time for the start of series 2. So I gorged myself on series 1 and all the fic and meta I could get my greedy little paws on. I had found my tribe! It was a revelation and a blessing and released a need in me to share my own thoughts and feelings to an extent that surprised me. I have been far more prolific writing about these characters than in any of my previous fandoms. Turns out I had a lot to say. Thank you for affording me the platform.

Best of all, this show brought me Shiri and Erin. There are no words to describe what @slitherouter and @how-ardently have given me. Friendship, love, understanding, support and an education in how to tell a good story well. I love you girls. You lifted me up. Thank you. ❤️

It's TEN YEARS since the first episode of My Mad Fat Diary aired!

Were you watching in the early days or did you discover it later (or even recently)?

If My Mad Fat Diary means something special to you, it'd be lovely to hear from you, either below or in an Ask. Memories of the show, favourite cast members, outfits, songs, or scenes, and the fanfics or fan art you loved.

Me, reading my scraps of fics in my notes app: oh, that’s good, I really like that. Someone should finish that.

Jodie Comer saying “Just let him whack it in ya!” is one of my favorite things

I’m starting to suspect that the only way to get my fics written is to write them
