Haven't really been doing the Fandom Snowflake Challenge this year, but maybe I'll catch up.

Day 6 - Best Canon

The last scene of the last episode of Season 2 of The Mandalorian.



I'd casually enjoyed The Mandalorian, but I wasn't particularly fannish about it until this moment. The return of Luke Skywalker into the franchise just grabbed my by the throat and dragged me quite willingly into the Star Wars fandom. Unfortunately The Book of Boba Fett killed a lot of my Din/Luke love (at least for the canon characters, and honestly, it had to -- given the whole hot mess of the Sequel trilogy.

But this scene is an amazing bit of canon and it opened the door to something I have really come to love.

Day 1 - Update Your Fandom Information

Completed. Can be found here

Day 2 - Fandom Origin Story

My fandom origin story is actually an oft-told tale, and I'm not going to repeat it here. You can find it on my very first post on my LiveJournal made when I started my fannish life back in 2010 and imported here on Dreamwidth.

Day 3 - A Fannish Opinion That Has Changed Over Time

Honestly, BBC Sherlock sucks balls. Sorry. I'm an ass and I know it.

Day 4 - Goals

I had a few DW/fannish oriented goals for 2024. How did I do?

1 - Complete a story that had one chapter left. FAILED
2 - Get back on track on another story. FAILED
3 - Post here more often. SUCCESS

Goals for 2025? Stay the course.

I'll continue to post on DW on a regular basis while my epic Star Wars time travel fix-it AU is still on-going. New chapters and a concurrent meta go live every Thursday (the chapters post on AO3, but I post a notification and the meta here on my journal). Right now, I've never missed a week, took off the month of November with advance notification because I needed a break, and have 20+ chapters in the hopper. I'm not bragging, just letting you know that I'm consistent. Lawful good, if you will. Also, chapters are about 5k to 7k in length. It's a meaty story. I'm proud of it.

Day 5 - Talk About What Has Improved in Your Life Thanks To Fandom

With one very dear exception, all of my friends are people I've met through fandom. They make my life worth living. I don't need to say more than that.
