Snowflake Day #9: Fandom Wrap

[schneefink]

Finally doing a snowflake_challenge on day 9:
In your own space, list your Fandom Wrap categories.


What are your top five fandoms for 2021 based on the amount of time you interacted with them?
1. Hades. More than 300 hours played, many fics read…
2. Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. More than 60 hours played, fics read and written.
3. Castlevania (TV). Watched four seasons, read fic.
4. The Magnus Archives. The end of season 5, and I read fewer fics than in past years but still a couple.
3. Star Wars, probably. No canon consumed, but Star Wars time travel is a comfort genre and fortunately there is a lot of it.

What are your top five fandom spaces in terms of time spent? (AO3, Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, Dreamwidth, and others)
1. AO3
2. Dreamwidth
3. Tumblr
4. Reddit
5. Twitter

What are the top five ways you interacted in these fandoms? (Reading fanfic, writing, commenting, watching videos, chatting with friends, making art, or anything else you can think of).
1. Reading fic. A lot.
2. Commenting on fic. Never as much as I want to but often.
3. Chatting with friends
4. Making recs
5. Writing

What things did you create that took the most time?
1. Various posts with thoughts on different fandoms on DW.
2. Writing fic. Not that much this year but my Yuletide fics took quite some time.
3. Recs, especially my series of Hades recs.
4. Fic comments. Some of them were quite long.

Have a Top 5 List you'd like to share?? By all means!
Five things I will probably not write in 2021 (but would like to have written):
1. Nirvana in Fire fusion with Disney's Mulan (Nihuang as Mulan, Jingyan as Li Shang, Lin Shu as Jingyan's advisor, eventual OT3 probably.) My newest shiny idea that I might not like anymore in a week but right now it sounds like fun.
2. Sequel to my OFC & Persephone Hades fic, with much worldbuilding and bonus Zagreus
3. Finally finish my old TAZ:Balance WIP
4. At some point, not necessarily this year but eventually, I want to write a Star Wars time travel fic (or canon divergence)
5. …I'm not finished with Hollow Knight yet but I suspect I'll want to write something for it.

I might go back to the other days eventually, or maybe not, idk.

I do too! The best thing about making posts about fandom is the possibility of persuading other people to check out these new shiny things I found :)

I'm the one who made the meme that dreamersdare picked up today about fandom length because I realized after a mate said small fandoms were under 5,000 works that when I say my fandom loves are tiny people have no idea how tiny they really are.

Which is the long way round of saying I too make posts in the hope of sharing my shinies... I'm just not holding my breath. :D

Yeah, "small fandom" can mean very different things. I once several years in a row nominated and requested a book for Yuletide that nobody I knew had ever heard of and that I had written the only fic for, and in the third year I got fic for it from a person who said that my requests had made them check out the book and they liked it, that was a great feeling :)

[corvidology]

Oh, that's always a lovely feeling when you get someone interested in something you love!
