Fandom Snowflake Challenge: Days 5-7
Jan. 7th, 2019 10:42 amI'm playing catch up today because I was very busy on Saturday and then very burned out on Sunday. I'm also just doing one thing instead of three for days 5 and 6.
Day 5
In your own space, promote three communities, challenges, blogs, pages, Twitters, Tumblrs or platforms and explain why you love them.
Fandom Trumps Hate
Now based out of dreamwidth instead of just tumblr, it's a fan auction that allows people to bid on creators, donate to non-profits, and in return get a fanwork to their specifications. I'm probably not going to participate this year, but it's still a great community and a great way to do some good.
Day 6
In your own space, create a list of at least three fannish things you'd love to receive, something you've wanted but were afraid to ask for - a fannish wish-list of sorts.
I would love some comments on a few of my small fandom fics (or any of my fics that don't have comments). You can find them halfway down this page if you're interested. (I've just filtered by comments and gone to the second to last page. I know there's a way to filter to just works without comments, but I don't remember it now).
I'd also be interested in a recommendation for any general small fandom comms here on dreamwidth. I've had an idea for one myself that I might post about later, but maybe something already exists that fits the bill.
Day 7
Stretch yourself a little and try something new. Go play in a new fandom or with a new pairing. Try working in a new medium. Or check out some fanworks that are new to you.
I've been working on a couple of fics in new fandoms over the last few weeks, and I've also been working on some icons to reflect those new fandoms, so I think I'm covered here. I've also found some nice rec lists from yuletide and other exchanges through this challenge, so I've found some new stuff to read as well.
