turpsChallenge #6
In your own space, make a list — anything between one and ten things is a sweet spot, but don't feel constrained by that! - of things that you wish existed in fandom or elsewhere, or that you'd like someone to make for you. Are you dying for podfic of your writing? Do you need icons for a character that doesn't get much fanart? Is there a story you want to read? Are you looking for new canons to get into? Would you like a collaborator for a project?
I've been thinking of this, and okay, my list.
Icons. I really need some new ones. Fannish: new bandom would be great, for example, any recent RyRo, FOB or MCR and man, how good it remains to be able to say recent MCR. But also, I'd love something winterhawk, which would have to be from the comics probably, Musketeers would be great, especially Aramis, Schitt's Creek, The Good Place, maybe some Voyager.
Non-fannish: something featuring products from Lush or a big bubbly bath and something cinema related. Or cats. Cats are always great. Or the beach.
On that note. I'd love a new header, I don't mind the one I have here at DW even if it is basic, but my LJ layout is a disaster due to Photobucket, so I could do with a totally new header over there.
While I don't need it now, I'd love someone to read over any MCU stuff in the future, which no doubt will be winterhawk. I do have an excellent beta but I don't want to lean on her too often... says the person who wrote a handful of times last year.
Recs for fic involving Mag 7 with Vin/Ezra, Musketeers with an Aramis focus or Leverage OT3 of Parker/Hardison/Eliot. My main love is h/c but I really will read anything as long as it doesn't involve humiliation.
Comments or kudos to my stuff would be fantastic.
And to extend that. If you do enjoy a fannish work please tell the creator so. That doesn't have to be via comment, I know sometimes it's just too much to be able to leave words. But consider a kudos because they really do a difference and I'm sure I'm not the only one to sit waiting for that first reaction to a posted piece.
Moving on.
A lot of responses to this challenge have mentioned comment fic, and I agree, comment fic is very shiny indeed. But that reminded me of something. I did a comment fic with someone which was polished and eventually put up at A03. Then Bob left MCR and there were bad feelings all around and the other person left fandom and deleted the fic without telling me they were doing so. It's still up on my LJ where it originated, and I have the deleted file as sent by A03, but I sometimes wonder if I should re-upload it myself with an orphan co-write. I have emailed/messaged the other person but never got a reply, so I don't know.
In other news. I really enjoyed 1917 yesterday, and yes, James fell asleep. Then was abruptly woken by a loud explosion on screen. The same explosion also had the man sitting next to me visibly jump, it's a good thing he wasn't holding popcorn as the couch in front would have got covered.
