dolorosa_12I'm diving back into Dreamwidth after a week away, and although I've read back through my reading page, I'm going to have to give myself something of a comment amnesty on most of your posts: there's just too much! (This is, to be clear, a good thing. I'm so happy to have such an active and verbose Dreamwidth circle!)
I'm really happy that my post on fandom and fannishness seemed to resonate with so many people. I always feel like an awkward person out of step with the way most people do fandom, so it was really nice to see that that isn't necessarily the case.
And now, two upcoming exchanges/challenges!
The first, chronologically, is![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
waybackexchange. This is an exchange for old fandoms that haven't had new installments of canon for at least ten years. The exchange will open for nominations on 28th January. You can see more details about the exchange (including FAQs about eligibility for borderline cases such as adaptations of nineteenth century literature, different comics continuities and so on) here. All my fandoms are old, so this exchange is one of my favourites!
halfamoon is an annual challenge running for the first two weeks of February, in which participants create fanworks (fic, art, vids, meta, and more) in response to various prompts, about female characters. There are more details, including the prompts themselves in this post here.
I hope everyone's week has been wonderful.
