Snowflake Challenge - Day 1

So, the snowflake_challenge has begun again for the year. I'm tentative about doing this, mostly because I have been so fannishly unconnected this year, and I've created almost nothing. Still. Here goes nothing.

In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you have created. It can be your favorite fanworks that you've created, or fanworks you feel no one ever saw, or fanworks you say would define you as a creator.

I decided not to repeat myself from last year, because why make it easy on myself, right? So in no particular order:

1) Little Do Men Perceive (A03)
Summary: Linda Danvers slips through the cracks of the world after the events of Infinite Crisis. Meanwhile, there's a new kidnapping ring in Gotham targeting the transients like Linda, which results in Linda, Batwoman, and the Question teaming up to shut them down.
Pairing: None
Rating: PG-13
Date: 5-20-10

I wrote this for Comicsbigbang in 2010, because for some reason it seemed like the best thing in the world to write this and Here mid the Ash Trees in the same time frame. It has my three favorite female superheroes in it, and IDEK. I just love Linda and Kate and Renee, okay?

2) At the End
Summary: With no one else in the world, Cougar and Roque turn toward each other.
Pairing: Roque/Cougar
Rating: NC-17
Date: 8-2-12

I wrote this for two reasons. One, lady_krysis had been sad about the amount of Jensen/Cougar in fandom, and two, I discovered that there were no Roque/Cougar fics on A03. How is this possible, I asked? Why hasn't someone written a long, delicious story of how those two can work together? So I wrote this. This is actually the first half of the story—I simply ran out of time to write the second half. Someday I'll get to it.

3)

SPN Vid - Surface from lunesque on Vimeo.

Title: Surface
Fandom: Supernatural
Music: Surface by Orisha
Length: 2:59
Summary: After hell, Dean confuses the line between violence and love. Dean/Alastair, Dean/Castiel

( Lyrics: )

Looking back at this now, I'm a little embarrassed? But also very proud, because it's the first fanvid I ever made. Plus, ALASTAIR! DEAN'S FACE! Now I look at it and see all the things I did wrong, and I totes commit the cardinal sin of the video being wedded to the lyrics, but I finished it, you know? :D

Snowflake Challenge - Day 2

In your own space, promote three communities, challenges, blogs, pages, Twitters, Tumblrs or platforms and explain why you love them. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

1) fandomsecrets

I used to follow this comm on livejournal, but I stopped because it became so very toxic to me that I was unhappy reading it. Either it's gotten much more pleasant since it came to dreamwidth, or I just don't care what anyone says anymore, but I do drop in to read this daily. I don't belong to the comm, but there's something pleasant about not looking at it for a couple of days and then having lots of secrets to read. :)

2)medievalpoc

I've been following this blog for months now, and I think it's absolutely fantastic. The blogger focuses on the erasure of POC in art history from an American POV, and they're very thorough and well-sourced. I think this is a good blog for anyone, not just with those who have knowledge of the failings of American education.

3) flow_arts

Sadly, a lot of the communities I follow on DW seem to be defunct, but I really enjoy this right now. I'm just slowly getting into flow arts myself, but it seems pretty cool. The community has nifty videos and weekly check ins, too.

Note to self:

In other news, I've watched all of of Amber Riley's routines from DWtS Season 17.

Is there a place where I can, like, start from season 1 of this show and watch it all the way through? Netflix or Hulu or something? Because it looks like so much fun.
