Fandom Snowflake Challenge - Days 9 to 13

[smallhobbit]

Day 9 - Commit an Act of Kindness.

I left some comments and wrote some doggerel which I dedicated to all challenge participants:

It may be a bit random
But we’re all keen on fandom
Yet each in our own ways.
More rainbow than snowflake
Are the ways we can partake
Refracting the sun’s rays


Day 10 - Create a fanwork.

I wrote Opening the Door for holmes_minor 


Day 11 - In your own space, talk about your creative process(es) — anything from the initial inspiration to how you feel after something’s done. Do you struggle with motivation or is it a smooth process? Do you have any tricks up your sleeve to pull out when a fanwork isn’t cooperating? What is your level of planning to pantsing/winging it?

Probably about two-thirds of the time I'll have an idea, maybe even the whole ficlet vaguely sorted.  The rest of the time, and for all longer fics, it's a case of sitting down and writing and seeing what comes out of it.  Which can be interesting when writing casefics.  If it's something long, or gift/exchange I'll pass it via a beta, otherwise I just go for it.


Day 12 - In your own space, create your own challenge.

For this, I'll go with the wording on my icon.


Day 13 - In your own space, set some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private.

Since I set my goals in April I shall simply say I'm going to work for the two bingos I've signed up for fan_flashworks and LJ's book bingo
