Day 7

In your own space, create a fanwork. Make a drabble, a ficlet, a podfic, or an icon, art or meta or a rec list. Arts and crafts. Draft a critical essay about a particular media. Put together a picspam or a fanmix. Write a review of a Broadway show, a movie, a concert, a poetry reading, a museum trip, a you-should-be-listening-to-this-band essay. Compose some limericks, haikus, free-form poetry, 5-word stories. Document a particular bit of real person canon. Take some pictures. Draw a stick-figure comic. Create something. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Write a ficlet? Now there's a thought. And I've got just the prompt.

260) High-Stakes Bachelor by Cindy Dees
Wannabe stuntwoman Lucie Miller can't believe she's landed a starring role in actor-producer Karen Coltraine's new film. A plain-Jane nobody and a megastar? Their on-screen chemistry is electric, burning up the celluloid… but offscreen, Lucie is stalked by danger.
Like a true Hollywood hero, Karen whisks her to her oceanfront mansion, practising love scenes while keeping her safe. But when their real-life relationship starts mirroring the movie's leading couple,the confirmed spinster fears she may fall for the doe-eyed ingenue. If the stalker doesn't get her first…

So much for keeping up with this challenge. I think the part-assembled jigsaw downstairs is distracting me.

Also: You wait for a friending meme, and two come along at once. This one's on the Dreamwidth side, for those who've made the leap.

I was rather busy at the weekend and missed snowflake_challenge days 10 and 11. I'll have to come back to them at some point. For now, though, number 12 is delightfully apposite.

Day 12

In your own space, talk about what you bring to fandom. It can be something tangible, or not. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I think that my contributions can be mainly summed up in two links: fanfic and random prompt generators. OK, there's a bit more than that; I sometimes annoy people with nitpicky forum posts, or muck about with doll generators or image macros, but they're very much a minor element.

What makes this question so appropriate for today is that I've just uploaded quite a significant update to the Unconventional Courtship Random Generator. New features include:

• You can specify both characters. So if you only want 10/Rose prompts, or Blake/Avon prompts, or Sapphire/Uhura prompts for all I care, you can have them.
• You can get a list of all the prompts the generator knows.
• You can add your own characters! Either just one, or an ensemble. The character names get stored in the URL, so you can set up a list and then bookmark it for future use.
• This was intended more for debugging, but if you're in love with one particular prompt, you can ask for endless variations on it.

Now that the fandom_stocking reveal has taken place, I thought I'd list the various ficlets I wrote for it:

• While The Cat's Away (882 words; Ace / Susan Q)
• Just Passing Through (1048 words; Liz Shaw / Silver)
• With Hilarious Consequences (568 words; Peri / Yrcanos)
• Double The Trouble (1121 words; Amy / Amy)
• One More Time (961 words; Amy, Rory, Romana III)
• Say It With Flowers (836 words; Donna, Leela, Fourth Doctor)

Day 8

In your own space, create a love meme for yourself. Let people tell you how amazing and awesome and loveable you really are. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so. Surf the comments and find people to give love to.

I have to say that the image which immediately sprung to my mind on reading that was of Stanley Moon belting out 'Love me!' in the original Bedazzled. And a fat lot of good it did him :-)

Day 6

In your own space, create a fanwork. A drabble, a ficlet, a podfic, or an icon, art or meta or a rec list. A picspam. Something. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Not strictly in my own space, because I posted it on dw100: Wandering Hands (Ace, Charles II)

Day 3

In your own space, talk about your creative process - from what inspires you to what motivates you to how you manage to break through blocks. Does your process change depending on the type of creating you're doing? Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I've decided to do snowflake_challenge this year. Well, it was that or talking about what I dreamed last night, and no-one wants to read that.

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. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
