Snowflake Challenge #1

So, in a probably doomed attempt of Posting and Interacting and Doing Something Else Besides Work Please God, I've decided to have... Maybe... A little go at the...



For the first time ever. I've given it a pass in the past because the timing is murder for anyone working in HE but screw everything this year, and my 90h of overtime in particular. So there.

The first challenge was an introduction so I took the opportunity to write a new Welcome Post and update my profile ever so slightly. Achieve!

In other news, I am WRITING AGAIN HALLELUJAH. Which is both fantastic and depressing, because it took me 1.5 weeks of recovery/holiday to get to the point where words were cooperating again. And now I want to write All The Things but I know that from Monday work is going to try to kick my ass so hard again :( Anyway, I have signed up to another try at getyourwordsout. I did not achieve my goal last year because 2020, but I did write 86k of fic anyway so fuck you universe. There will be the usual fanworks round-up meme soon. Well, this month?

Welcome to Snowflake! The great things about the challenge are that you are not required to take part in every challenge and that, even if you're not able to post at the time, you can always go back and complete a challenge and peruse other people's responses afterwards. It's like a gift that keeps on giving :)

Whoop, thank you! Yes, the flexibility is absolutely a big draw and bonus for me. 2020 made me miss challenge deadlines for the first time ever and am bitter about it. I'm hoping this year will be kinder and I can get some kind of balance. And I've missed fandom and my DW peeps so the Snowflake will be a good impetus for chatting.

I second that! We definitely need 2021 to be kinder to us! And yes, even if you don't get around to writing anything, it's still great to have the connection to other people. Especially if we can't see many people face to face!

Absolutely :)
