Snowflake Meme, Days 1,2 and 3

 

 

 

Day 1

In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you have created. It can be your favorite fanworks that you've created, or fanworks you feel no one ever saw, or fanworks you say would define you as a creator.

Remember that we're using the term fanwork in the broadest sense of the word here - things like episode guides, meta, canon timelines, thematic lists, recs, fandom overviews, picspams, discussion posts, etc totally count.

2. My big AU Crossover, The Gate to Everywhere http://www.lotrgfic.com/viewstory.php?sid=1810

This is a crossover between AU LotR/Narnia, and I sat on it for a long time before finishing it up a couple of years ago for the GFIC Big Bang. Mostly because I'd like more feedback on it, and also because of Armariel's awesome artwork.

Day 2

In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you did not create. Drop a link to your post in the comments. See if you can rec fanworks that are less likely to be praised: tiny fandoms, rare pairings, fanworks other than stories, lesser known kinks or tropes. Find fanworks that have few to no comments, or creators new to a particular fandom and maybe aren't well known or appreciated. Appreciate them.

Well, Grey Wonderer took one of my LotR fanfic recs (I'd like to second her rec of Elanor's "A Secret Gate"), so I decided to go with something different, and rec some non-Tolkien fic:

Day 3

Comment to someone you haven't ever interacted with before or introduce yourself to someone you've interacted with and friend/follow them. Afterwards, leave a comment in this post with the equivalent of "I did it!"

Some of you have been checking out other participant's recs and self-recs from the Day 1 and Day 2 posts. If you've interacted with anyone new, you can absolutely count that for Day 3!

Can anyone tell me why my first cut did not work? I thought I highlighted 1, 2 and 3, but it only cut 1.

So cool!

I got the following email today:

Isn't that neat? I never had anyone translate my stories before!!! *grin* Hyperbole aside (because I know of a LOT of hobbit writers who are better than I am) it's really flattering!
