Jan. 7th, 2019 04:10Day 5. In your own space, promote three communities, challenges, blogs, pages, Twitters, Tumblrs or platforms and explain why you love them.
Many Paths to Tread: This one always surprises me. It's a small, not terribly well known Tolkien archive catering to fics rated up to teen (or a very, very light mature if you're careful), features mainly elves and men, all ages, gen, mild het or slash. Regular updates, very much still in use.
SilmarillionWritersGuild: I was one of the early members of the Yahoo group (dragged along by Uli) and later the archive, which at that point was presented as possibly a writers' workshop or some such. It's grown into the go-to place for Silm fiction. This is the site most of the Silm writers I know call home. Big, big variety of fic. Be warned though, not mobile phone friendly.
Faerie: Ehh, what should I say about Faerie? It's this really, really nice archive with good to excellent writers. It's a friendly, comfortable place, easy to post to and navigate, it has a great mod, and it's a safe and very welcoming space. You can chat with members or just pass through, whichever works for you - it's that kind of home from home.

Day 6. In your own space, create a list of at least three fannish things you'd love to receive, something you've wanted but were afraid to ask for - a fannish wish-list of sorts. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your wish-list if you feel comfortable doing so. Maybe someone will grant a wish. Check out other people's posts. Maybe you will grant a wish. If any wishes are granted, we'd love it if you link them to this post.
We all want feedback on our fics.
We all want art for our fics (that is such a cool compliment!).
We all want kudos if you don't have time for that feedback.
I am no different *g*. This is me on AO3
Lost track of how many times I've edited this post - now you see it, now you see more of it. I need sleep.
