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. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your wish-list if you feel comfortable doing so. Maybe someone will grant a wish. Check out other people's posts. Maybe you will grant a wish. If any wishes are granted, we'd love it if you link them to this post.
(1) I've mentioned how writing was hard for me last year. I just lost motivation and the longer that went on, confidence. I even started to wonder if I was done writing wise, then things changed in the last few weeks. First I started to read through the bandom holiday exchange stories, and was reminded that yes, I still love the fandom. And the second wasonthehill sent a whole load of comments on old stories. Due to my ongoing thunderbird mess I haven't replied yet, but the boost I got was incredible. So I guess this is my long winded way of saying I'd love if people sent feedback to fan works in general, not just mine but everyone's. Old, new, kudos or comment. It makes so much difference to know what you produce is being enjoyed.
(2) Links to desktop backgrounds -- I know and use Turlough's already. Between the crash at the start of last year and getting a new computer my backgrounds are very sad now. Obviously I like bandom, but I also like space, owls, cats, or maybe a Groot. That would be cool.
(3) This is tied to the first so is cheating a little. I've seen so many posts recently where people mention talking into the wind when they post something, and I find that sad. I know it's hard to comment at times, and I'd hate for people to feel forced or uncomfortable, but if you read a post and feel an urge to reply, do it. Don't feel what you're going to say doesn't matter or has been said before or that the person who's posted doesn't want to hear from you. I'm sure that they do.
(4) One that will never happen. I wish that the Mikey/Pete ship would stop being called Pikey. I hate it so much and each time I see the word I cringe.
Tacking onto the snowflake post. I got my picfor1000 challenge picture this morning. As soon as I saw it I started to laugh. It's perfect
