I've spent the weekend enjoying myself with the Three Sentences Ficathon. There are a lot of delightful snippets over there and it's a lot of fun.

If anyone's curious, here are the prompts I've filled:


What I prompted myself can be found at the end of page sixteen. I already got THREE BatCat fills, one for Diana, another for HP and the Black Family, and two Gomez/Morticia fills. In case anyone else feels inspired (wink wink), my other prompts are about Marvel (IronMasque), PotC (Barbossa &or/ Elizabeth), Ready or Not (Grace &or/ Mr. Le Bail), Rick & Morty (gen), and TGP (Chidi and students). And I definetly don't mind repeats for the others LOL.

I left some prompts in this dark femslash ficathon (Buffy/vampire!Willow, Diana/Poison Ivy, Cersei/Sansa, Jupiter/Kalique from Jupiter Ascending, Amma/Camille from Sharp Objects, Jesse/Riley from The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Ariel/Ursula, Gerda/the Snow Queen, and M'gann/Queen Bee from Young Justice). Sadly I'm mostly unfamiliar with the prompts left there by other people; a few of them are from fandoms in my short-term to-watch list and from ships that seem up my alley, so hopefully I'll write something for Femslash February. It'd be a shame not to do it with a fest so tailored to my interests LOL.

I left yet MORE prompts for this Sci-Fi/Fantasy prompt meme (Creature from the Black Lagoon, Diana/Wonder Woman, Jason Todd, Asriel/Marisa, Jupiter Ascending, and current comics' Tony Stark).

There will be a Pepperony anon kink meme over livejournal during February 14th, and given how much that fandom has veered away from smut lately I'm very excited about it xD.

And to finish this off, my reading list has informed me of an Aftercare is... fest, and I'm going to look it up and see if I can come up with any prompts (somehow, the hardest part of these things for me LOL).

AKA talk about someone who inspired you and recommend a fannish or creative resource.

For some reason, number 10 is the hardest one yet. You know that thing, where someone asks you a very specific question about your interests and suddenly you forget everything you’ve ever liked and every one of your opinions? It’s a little bit like that, at least for me LOL.

It’s not like I haven’t been inspired by people in fandom (though I’m admittedly terrible when it comes to following authors, and just jump through fandom to fandom without consistency), or original creators like Mary Shelley, Hitchcock, Emma Orzcy or William Marston, or other personalities like Nina Simone, Amelia Earheart or Lucille Ball. But for some reason my mind won’t cooperate when it comes to raving about them at length right now xD

I’ll say when it comes to inspiration to my own writing, what works best for me is visuals: paintings, fanart, aesthetic posts, etc. It’s basically the main reason I have tumblr, where I get a lot of ideas from my art, fanart and inspo tags. Fanartist are the best thing to happen to my creativity, NGL.

As for fannish and creative resources:

  • There are tons of blogs in tumblr that offer solid writing advice and links to resources. Some of my favorites are scriptshrink (with a lot of information about writing about mental illnesses), ao3commentoftheday (lots of good fandom advice and debates), monsterkinkmeme (prompts for monster lovers), or clevergirlhelps, for just about anything. Writeroftheprompts offers both prompts and advice, and has a handy masterlist here.
  • This site has space terminology provided by NASA for your sci-fi writing needs.
  • Writingexercises is one of my favorite ones. It’ll generate prompts, character traits, titles… Great for writer’s block, in my experience.
  • Bad Things Happen Bingo opens for new cards again on February 3rd and it's a pretty chill event, without deadlines, perfect if you're into heavy angst, whump, darkfic in general, etc.

-I nominated a few stories for the once-upon-a-fic exchange (for fairy tales, myths, etc.). I'm not sure I'll sign up, because gift exchanges don't look like my thing, but at least I might get to read fic for some of my favorite stories out there.

-Why is it that almost every time I stumble onto a headcanon about how to "fix" Endgame, it somehow makes the story 300 times worse? LOL. I know it's partially because I don't feel there's much to fix in that film -I sympathise and even agree with a lot of its criticism, but they're usually about things I could take or leave either way-; what I wanted out of it was to watch Tony's swan song, and I got exactly that. But a lot of those fix-its sound directly counter-intuitive to the propose of the post itself. It's weeeeeeird.

-Really, my only complaint about Endgame (other than the fact that it plausible argues that Thanos' actions might have made the universe if not better, at least not worse) is that since it came out it seems I can't find Pepperony smut, at least not how I used to. Things like this is why I'm not big on domesticity as a trope LOL. I hope things change with the pepperony kinkmeme these Valentine's Day.

-After the conclussion of the last The Good Place episode I started wondering if the show will end spoilers )
 
-Everyone look at the cute Wonder Woman themed icon @seleneheart made for me.

AKA rec yourself and rec at least three fanworks you didn't create.

I wanted to post at least one fic before I got to this challenge LOL, but my WIPs are not collaborating with me right now, and I'd like to catch up with the challenge, thank you very much (I have a rare free day, so I'm going to try to do as many of these as possible. Sorry in advance for spamming your reading pages).

Since it wasn't possible, I'll link to a couple of posts I posted in @monthlysupergo for this month's challenge: icons. In my case, Wonder Woman icons (misc, and from this week's anthology issue). I made my dreamwidth icons too, and I'm quite proud of them -visual arts of any kind are NOT my thing, but these all turned pretty well, if I say so myself. And since I have so very little output in terms of fanworks, here are the icons or headers I use in other platforms too :)

As for other people's fanworks: one of my favorite things in fandom, one that never fails to impress me, is fanart. Maybe it's because I struggle to draw a straight line with a ruler, I don't know. But there are so many gorgeous pieces out there, and at least 70% of why I made myself a tumblr account was to reblog them and have them stored somewhere. Some of my favorite ones:

And to finsih it off, I wanted to rec two fics I read recently (and finally commented on): O Rose thou art sick, an Aurora/Maleficent what-if for the Disney film (mind the warnings); and itches in the front, a short BatCat smut fic with some domme Selina.

AKA, recommending my favorite communities, fest and challenges + setting some goals for the upcoming year. I decided to do it this way because my short-term fandom goals align with those challenges.
