Snowflake Challenge Day 6 and 7
Jan. 7th, 2019 03:23 pmDay 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. 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.
These are pretty much the same as last year, but as my wishes haven't really changed that much.
(1) I'd love people to comment or leave kudos on fannish works. Not just mine, but anything you check out and enjoy. Honestly, getting any kind of response is great because it's horrible thinking you're posting into a void. I was sure there was a link that showed you works on A03 that don't have any comments or kudos but I can't find it atm. Hopefully someone will know what I mean and link.
(2) Say thank you to the mods of challenges and comms. It's a thankless job at times, and while I haven't been a mod of either for a while I well remember how it feels that at times, you're herding cats.
(3)Consider leaving a transformative works statement on your profiles. This is something Aka talked about a while back, and has a great post to explain more here
(4) And my change from last year. Winterhawk recs. H/c is my favourite genre but there's nothing I won't read. So if you've a Bucky/Clint or Bucky and Clint focussed story you enjoyed, hit me up.
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. (The recs from Day 2 might be a good place to start.) Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
I've actually sort of being doing this for fandom stocking, and in fact, as I realised there's still over a week to go before reveals I may try for more stockings. Though, technically what I've been writing isn't new. So probably shouldn't count. Which is why I started to think about my non-existent art skills, which reminded me of the stick art I created with![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
sperrywink for our beloved mikeyway_daily. Which led to me looking for ages to find out when we posted that terrible amazing art and it was in 2010. What is time!? However, with photobucket going silly and my computer crashes the work doesn't exist now, which is sad. Unless Sperrywink still has a copy our genius will be lost to time Which is probably just as well
But, I've just had such a wonderful time looking through old posts.
However, back to the challenge. I will look for new to me pairings/fandoms to try out. Read for sure, write, maybe.
