Firstly, I am verklempt over the lovely comments on my Holiday Meme tread. I also definitely know who some of the people responsible but to protect them from having to openly discuss icky feelings I'm going to pretend I don't.

***

Secondly, after at least a couple of years of not having energy for these things, I have signed up for [community profile] fandomtrees. You can find my extensive list of fandom requests here. I honestly could have continued for much longer but had to cut it off somewhere so we have: Guardian, Guardian RPF, Harry Potter, Good Omens, BTS (sigh, I know), MCR, FOB, PATD, Start Trek AOS, Grimm, MCU and Witcher. Being multifandom is a gift and a burden.

I've strolled through the entries posted so far and identified some with tempting prompts... And have about 1k for one of them at the moment, whoo writing!  

***

Thirdly...

We will be starting a read/reread of Book 1. Eye of the World on 1st of December, with initial schedule (to be adjusted if needed!) of roughly book per month. Besides that, any and all fanworks or other content relating to both the book series and the TV adaptation, are welcome on the community.

If Wheel of Time is an old friend (it was a genre staple for many of us in the comm) or a new acquaintance and you'd like some peer support in tackling the series, and opportunity to fannish chatter, gather your sword, mount your steed and ride toward [community profile] tar_valon! Adventure awaits!

We're interrupting your scheduled programming to let you know that the [community profile] femdomexchange nominations are now open, until end of August. Tagset and nomination form on AO3.

In case you're wondering, I nominated in...
  • The Mummy 
  • This Beautiful Fantastic 
  • Star Trek: Discovery
  • The X-Files
  • RPF
  • She-Ra and the Princesses of Power
  • MCU
  • Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters
  • The Expanse
  • Scrubs
Gonna be so hard to pick what I want though as there were also tons of things already nominated that I really like...!

Phew! I've done lots of writing lately, largely inspired by prompts and fics from [personal profile] pushkin666, [personal profile] dreamersdare and [archiveofourown.org profile] HanHathma and also by Zhao Yunlan's oral fixation. There was also the [community profile] chocolateboxcomm fic that got done by the deadline so yay. Posted stuff is on my AO3 already but over the next week or so I will very likely post here as well , because I still like having the fics on my journal too even though no one really reads or comments on fics here anymore.

All of that means that despite falling very behind on my [community profile] getyourwordsout goal I am now only ~200 words away from actually being on track for my overall goal of 150k by the end of the year. At the time of writing this my year total so far is 19,506.

And, here I am, letting you know that you also have an opportunity to make me write even more! My writing services are up for auction at two places, both currently open for viewing with bidding opening next week.

Whilst I have specified some fandoms, the long and short of it is: I am very open to writing in any fandom I either already know or have a reasonable chance in getting familiar with (= access to canon that isn't like 20 seasons long). I am also very open to writing any pairing I've already written and very willing to try others. It's not quite a blanket 'anything goes' as I have some caveats but please, do ask. Also, any ratings, most kinks and most genres. Essentially, if it's not in my 'hard limits' list, then it's probably negotiable ;)

CLICK ON THE BANNERS TO VIEW MY OFFERS:


For [community profile] fandomtrumpshate I'm specifically offering Harry Potter, Guardian and Good Omens fic.




[community profile] fandomforoz allowed for listing more than three fandoms, so I'm specifically offering Bandom, Harry Potter, Good Omens, Guardian, Hawaii Five-0, Firefly, MCU, Person of Interest, Stargate Atlantis, Star Trek AOS fic.

I know at least a couple of flisters who will be interested in this... Going to be signing up for this as well, probably with different fandoms than for [community profile] fandomtrumpshate

Yep, yep, the pain fades fast. I have just signed up for [community profile] fandomtrumpshate again. I both upped my bid to min $15 and ticked the 10-20k box because let's face it, the fic is going to end up there anyway. This year I'll be offering are Good Omens, Guardian and Harry Potter. As usual though, I am open to discuss any other fandoms too as long as I know the canon or have a reasonable chance to familiarise myself with it.

The sign-ups are open until 31st of Jan, and you can browse the bids from 17th of Feb. The actual bidding period is short and intense, 24th-28th of Feb. Check the community for details! I'll link to my offer once it goes up in case you are interested in bidding.

***

However! I also really wanted to boost the project the community mods are doing: Boosting Fan Labour, i.e. beta reading (and equivalent to vids, art etc), expertise offered in e.g. cultural or professional knowhow, translations...

Check the link for all the details but I thought this was a really cool and worthwhile effort! They are looking for testimonials from fan labourers and those who have benefitted from their efforts, so maybe consider doing that (shout out to my two most recent betas [personal profile] fledge and [personal profile] dreamersdare here!). In addition, they are setting up a 'Regiment of Fan Labourers' to support the FTH writers mostly, where people can donate to the charities listed in exchange for help. You can sign up for that if you don't want to/can't offer fanworks!

Attention all!

[community profile] fandomtrumpshate browsing week is currently under way. You can view all the offers here and search the tags for fandoms, creators and types of fanworks you may be interested in.

My offer can be found here
. As we were only allowed to nominate 3 fandoms officially, mine were Harry Potter, Stargate Atlantis and Original Fic, but as you can see from the details I'm very willing to write in most of the fandoms I've written in before or try new ones as long as I know/like the canon. Happy to discuss...

Biddings starts on 26th and finishes March 1st, 8pm EST for both.

Please click on the banner to read more and sign up. Minimum requirements are ridiculously small and the sign-ups CLOSE TOMORROW!

Small Fandom Bang is looking for more artists! I've been doing this the last 3 years and enjoyed it every time! The opportunity to pretend to be arty and read in new fandoms is fantastic and I can warmly recommend it. Their definition of 'art' is very broad (see below) so you don't have to be good with graphics per se to take part!

Yeah, I did. Well, [livejournal.com profile] pushkin666 and I both did. We signed up to co-author a Lewis fic, because we had a perfect wip already on the go... I also signed up to do art. And by art I obviously mean a fanmix or some mediocre icons. \o?

You should all go sign up as artists because they only have a fraction of artists compared to writers.

I'm both selfish and rational. I'm scheming, secretive and manipulative; I use knowledge as a tool for personal gain, and in turn obtaining more knowledge. At best, I am mysterious and stealthy; at worst, I am distrustful and opportunistic.




Me: *affronted* 'Scheming and manipulative?!'
[livejournal.com profile] trialia: Well, you are a top.
Me: ...okay, fair point. Oh hey, 'uses knowledge as a tool for personal gain'. Weeeeeeeeeeell. *strokes chin consideringly*
