Day 01

In your own space, talk about why you are doing the Fandom Snowflake Challenge? What drew you to it as a participant? What do you hope to accomplish by doing these challenges? Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Ok, so I've been in bandom about two years and I've only ever spoken to a handful of people. Despite being older than most (I think. I'm in my 30's, so I sure feel older), I'm hella shy with introducing myself to fellow fandom folk, and I'm stupidly intimidated by people who have been in fandoms since the dawn of time.

So doing a challenge such as this one will hopefully pull me out of my shell a little, maybe get me talking, and stop me from being a fandom hermit.

I've talked myself out of doing other challenges before so this feels like a good place to start :)

PS I've never actually used Dreamwith before so I've no idea what I'm doing...

Snowflake Challenge Day 2

 

Day 2

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. 

Okay, I'm not good at asking for things, but here goes nothing. I'm pretty much only reading bandom lately, but I've also been reading the odd Star Wars fic.

1. I'm a big fan of crossovers, and I love the idea of either a Star Wars or Star Trek crossover into Bandom (I think there's been one or two crossovers into Star Trek, but I need more, honestly). Likewise with superheroes, either if it's subtle super powers that no one knows about like vague mind control or x-ray vision or something, or actual superheroes saving the world. I love that idea though, and it's not used near enough in bandom.

2. Comments on my stuff. This one is a lot of ask for but I do love comments. I love to hear if a bit of something I wrote actually worked. Even if people read my work it makes me happy though.

3. I also LOVE getting something recommended to me, something I might like based on what I've written maybe ?(Bonus if I haven't read it already!). This would especially work for The Force Awakens fic cos I'm totally new and have only read a handful.

Phew, that was hard!
