In Which I Do A Meme: Shipping And Fandoms List
Taken from gehayi!
Pick a number from the list and I'll (try to) answer it in the comments.
1 - Your current OTP. If you don't have an OTP, one of your favorite characters.
2 - A pairing or fandom you initially didn't consider but someone changed your mind.
3 - A pairing or character you have never liked and probably never will.
4 - A pairing or character you wish you liked but just can't.
5 - Have you added anything stupid/cracky/hilarious to your fandom? If so, what?
6 - What's the longest you've ever been in a fandom?
7 - Do you remember your first OTP? If so, who was in it?
8 - Do you prefer characters/pairings from live-action series or anime series?
9 - Has the Internet caused you to stop liking any fandoms? If so, which one(s) and why?
10 - Name a fandom you didn't care/think about until you saw it all over your social network sites.
11 - Do you get involved with fans and fandom? Or do you just focus on the works that you like?
12 - Your favorite fan artist/author allows you to request one work from him/her. What do you ask for?
13 - Your favorite fanart or fan artist. (I'll settle for "one of your favorites.")
14 - Your favorite fanfiction or fan author. (I'll settle for "one of your favorites.")
15 - Choose a song at random. Which character or pairing does it remind you of?
16 - Invent a random AU for any fandom. (We always need more ideas.)
17 - A ship or fandom that you've abandoned, and why.
18 - A pairing you ship that you don't think anyone else ships. (If you don't ship much, then pick a fandom that you love but that you don't think anyone else is aware of. Small fandoms always need more love.)

20 - Do you remember what your first fanwork was?
21 - Self-rec: What's your favorite fanwork you've created?
22 - Are you one of those fans who can't watch anything without shipping?

26 - Ask me a fandom-related question NOT listed above.

I've never stopped liking any fandom in its entirety. That being said, the various Internet arguments and such things made me much less fond of Harry Potter than I once was. I've just taken to avoiding the fandom in general by now, in favor of other fandoms.
"Your favorite fanart or fan artist. (I'll settle for "one of your favorites.")"
This would be a "one of your favorites", and it's TheLostHype of DeviantArt. She (erm...assuming it's a she ^^; ) does fancomics of Axis Powers Hetalia, specifically ones that center around "FACE" (France, America, Canada, & England family unit). She recently finished an ongoing comic about America and Canada having all of the nations engage in an epic water gun fight, and she's currently illustrating a Hetalia-style retelling of the War of 1812, as well as an illustrated adaptation of "Feverish" (one of my favorite fanfictions). Her drawing style is adorable and very well done, she handles humor and seriousness beautifully, and knows how to pace her stories. She also regularly updates, which is a big plus. ^^

"14 - Your favorite fanfiction or fan author. (I'll settle for "one of your favorites.")"
I'm going to do two of my favorites here, both for Axis Powers Hetalia again (erm...three guesses as to what my current favorite anime is XD)
First is Gemini Star01. She does a lot of stories that focus on America and Canada, usually with something playing into their relationship as brothers (which I'm a sucker for). Her fics tend to have a good bit of darkness to them, and she puts an admirable amount of effort into research, from the mythology usage in "White Winter" to the Mengele twin experiments in "The Awakening". She also is currently doing a three-part visual novel for Hetalia, which is also fantastic!

Second is Speaking Through Written Words, who I love because he came up with the Hearth universe. Basically, his Hearth world is what you get if you decided to make all of Hetalia happen in a single remote village, have the characters be all just as batty as in canon, add in a healthy dose of headcanon and OCs (both of which work very well) and a dash of inspiration from the show "Eureka". The first three fics are loosely based off of Shakespeare plays (The Comedy of Errors, Much Ado About Nothing, and All's Well that Ends Well), with another series of Hearth one-shots and a prequel. He also does one-shot requests.
