tyrsibsChallenge #4: In your own space, create some goals. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it.
I could talk about personal and work goals, but I think I'll stick to fandom ones. OK, here goes (deep breath)--
1) I want to continue working on a fic series I began during SPN Season 14 that I called "(Fic Writer) picks the music." My plan was to use my playlist of songs related to Supernatural as inspiration for a series of one-shots from different characters' POVs. I thought the structure would give me incentive to keep writing on a regular basis, but I got stuck with the 5th song, "Thunderstruck". I would like to get over that hurdle and keep going!
2) Continuing with the fic writing theme, I'd like to participate in a big bang challenge this year. I've done Summergen several times, SPN Spring Fling and Reversebang a couple of times each, but these are based around gift fics based on prompts. I've never written a story "cold" and submitted it for an artist's consideration. In truth the idea terrifies me a bit, bringing back memories of waiting to be picked in gym class, which is a reason to do it, right? (Did I mention I'm a bit neurotic?)
3) Write more, paint more, read more. You'd think that as a librarian, I would read a lot. And I do generally have a book going, but there are so many shinies that distract so easily---
So that's a start for me. I'm excited to read some of yours!

Date: 2021-01-10 02:20 pm (UTC)I have no idea what the fic and art community is right now, because I only interact with it as far as my personal journal and my flist. I stopped considering myself part of the fandom community years ago, because it was too much of a vibe I did not want. So I'm not the person to answer that question, haha. I imagine it will be one of those fandoms that always has a small following, though! It's got that cult-appeal thing going for it. Maybe the bad vibes will even burn off one day, and leave behind happy, curious people. XD
