You're listening to First in Line, your all access pass to fan culture with Liv Fitzsimons and Elham Mohamud. First in Line is a community by fans, for fans.
This week we're joined by Emma Cantrell-Miller, author and small-business owner, about how her experiences as a fan led her to build a career online. We discuss how being your authentic self on the internet helped Emma develop her fanfiction, Cherry (which has over 8.6m reads on Wattpad), garner a following on TikTok, and allowed her to be successful by running an independent fan-made merch shop. Emma's presence highlights how creativity, connections, + shared experiences through fandom can lead to success if you stay true to who you are. Thanks Emma for joining us on the show!
