#fan exchanges

[cat-clawz]

Just out of curiosity, if I were to host a song-based bang* of Dan and Phil, would anyone be interested in that?

I would be interested in participating as an artist

I'd be interested in participating as a ficcer

Interested in participating some other way (mod with know-how, beta reader, etc)

I wouldn't personally participate, but would love to see the resulting fancrafts

I would not be interested in this

Who are dan and phil?? (results)

*A song-based bang in this case is a type of fancrafts exchange. Essentially, people would join, they would give another person a song that they'd like a fancraft of Dan and Phil to, and that person would make a fancraft of it. It would be exchanged such that each person who is doing a fancraft also receives one in return, kind of like that white elephant thing people do for Christmas.

** Keep in mind that although I have been in a few zines and bangs, including a song-based bang, I have never actually run one, so this would be kind of a process lol xD it would likely be run mainly through Discord.

A brief fannish promotion:

I know that Tumblr has replaced Dreamwidth in many fandoms, but I still love it there. And also they have my favourite fannish event of the year, Fandom Stocking! You sign up to "hang" a stocking with fannish requests in and then over the Christmas period (from now, basically) other people fill it. All the fills are screened until ~Jan 6 and then you get to see EVERYTHING AT ONCE. It's great and really lovely. (Also I'm really hoping more people will sign up with Wolf 359.)

hi again! polyship person again hahaha. you just have so many great ideas and i'm definitely wanting to treat you along with the main piece. so i wanted to know: could you describe more on how imekari is? would love to represent your adaar as respectfully as possible :D

Oh, it doesn't need to be Imekari specifically.

But if you would really like to represent her - Imekari is true Vashoth mage, her parents were Tal-Vashoth who left the Qun and she was born later. She was raised in a mercenary group, but her parents didn't really know what to do with her and that got even worse when she developed magic. A Nevarran mage, Appius, taught her most of what she knows about magic (and she's a Necromancer). Her parents and Appius are all deceased.

As for Imekari herself, she's adaptable, enthusiastic, intuitive, childish, noncommittal, unsentimental, brutal, disorderly, and terse. She is *chronically* unserious, about absolutely everything. At the start of Inquisition she is still quite young, in her early 20s. When she decides to actually open up and be genuine with others though, she is quite gentle and attentive. She and Sera were absolute PESTS throughout all of Inquisition lol.

This Might Be Why People Are Throwing Things At Performers At Concerts — HuffPost

In the last few months, artists like Cardi B, Harry Styles and Kelsea Ballerini have all had objects chucked at them onstage. What's the dea

At a Beatles concert at New York City's Shea Stadium in the 1960s, signs admonished the assembled Beatlemaniacs not to throw objects or cross the police line.

I’m super excited to sign up for the Chocolate Box when it opens tomorrow. So many good things in the nominated tagset, I feel like my letter is going to be ridiculously long for an exchange where the minimum word count is only 300.

Like writing smut? Like reading smut? Like fandom exchanges?

Smut Swap 2016 is pretty much what it says on the tin: a multi-fandom smut swap. Request up to 10 fandoms for whatever pairings and kinks you like, make some offers for what you’re willing to write - and get cracking on a smutty fill! All the requests are visible, so you’re welcome to write a fill for a request/prompt besides the one you’re initially matched on.

It’s looking like it will be a pretty fantastic smut free-for-all and with a 1k minimum for smutty fics, why not give it a try? There’s a little more than a week left to sign up and get in on the smut! :)
