Snowflake challenge, day 7

[flo_nelja]

In your own space, create a list of at least three things you'd love to receive, something you've wanted but were afraid to ask for - a wishlist of sorts.

1) These days I've been interested in the intersection of poetry and fanfic. If you have any to read - poetry works on AO3, or a published poem that is technically fanfiction because it's about a literary, mythological, or historical figure, or even a haiku you want to write about of of my fandoms right now, I'm very interested.

2) I'm a big fan of ships manifestos, but it's out of fashion. If you do some, or know some places where people post some, I'd be interested!

3) If you have some fics of mine in your "to watch later" category, I love feedback :D (even if it's just a Kudos without a comment)

4) This one is a long shot. I'm on livejournal and I had a paid account and I can no longer pay them money for my pics hosting because they only accept money from Russian accounts. If someone here has a Russian bank account and a livejournal account (or the will to create one), I can give them the money (with a little commission) and they could gift me my paid account for the year.
I'm aware this really much sounds like a scam, but I don't know what else to do.

If you like video manifestos, someone linked to the YT search results on fanlore.

[flo_nelja]

Sadly I don't do videos (even in my native language they're hard for me)

[sarajayechan]

Aah.

Any particular ships you're looking for? I could trawl the Tumblr or AO3 tags.

Hi, I'm in awe of mrspencil on fanfiction.net, whose poetic works in Sherlock Holmes fandom offer whole stories, in addition to smaller pieces: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14417012/1/Scallywags-and-Sleigh-Rides

[flo_nelja]

Oh, thank you, you're right, I loved it!

[tildytwo]

I don't think it's one of your fandoms (didn't see it on the list, anyway) but I have a Half-Life themed poem on AO3.

[flo_nelja]

Thank you! Even without knowing the fandom, it was nice to read!

[catgiri]

for #1! one of my favorite authors on ao3 sometimes does poetry fic. here's two of them!

[flo_nelja]

OOoh, they're long! Right now I'm working, I need to remember to read them later!

[visualjyushi]

I was recently informed about shipmanifestos. There's only a few there now, but it seems like a gradually growing community.

[flo_nelja]

OMG thank you I didn't know it!!

[barbaratp]

Não sabia sobre o LJ agora só aceitar contas russas, que triste fim as chances de uma conta paga naquele site...

Quanto ao manifesto, já olhou a comunidade manifestship?

[flo_nelja]

I hadn't yet, I didn't know it existed!

Yeah Russian law changed, and I fear Russian laws rarely change for the better these days?

[barbaratp]

Acho que até os russos não estão felizes com isso porque tenho visto um grande número deles criando contas aqui na DW, o número de diários em russo aumentou e muito nos últimos meses (pela minha percepção, não tenho certeza real)

Wish Granted!

My main writing gig is poetry. I have two large fanseries of it, a smaller one, and the rest original.
* Frankenstein's Family
* Love Is For Children (The Avengers, a mix of fiction and poetry)
* The Ursulan Cycle (genderbent King Arthur)

You can also ask for fan poetry in any relevant prompt call. Next up will be the crowdfunding Creative Jam on Jan. 18-29 with a theme of "Work." Next Poetry Fishbowl will be Tuesday, February 4 but the theme isn't set yet; my theme call is currently running.

Me too! :D I recommend:
marchmetamatterschallenge
metawarehouse
month_of_meta -- The Meta Month of May
shipmanifestos

Mine on "Why I Love Wednesday Addams" has an extensive guide to relationships.

[flo_nelja]

OOh all of this seems wonderful, thank you!

Re: Wish Granted!

[ysabetwordsmith]

You're welcome! I'm happy to tip people to fun new things.

I don't know how familiar you are with the Silmarillion part of Tolkien fandom, but the Silmarillion Writers' Guild has a ton of fanwork poetry on it: https://www.silmarillionwritersguild.org/find?uid=&field_language_target_id=&field_genre_writing_target_id%5B%5D=419.

[flo_nelja]

Yesss it's one of my fandoms, and I think one very suited to poetry fic! Thank you!

[greetingsfrommaars]

I've written a few fic-y poems for anime before. my favorite (and the only recent one) is this one about Mushishi: https://archiveofourown.org/works/41137542

I'll go check out some of your fics too!

[flo_nelja]

Thank you, it was good! <3
(I haven't seen the show or read the manga for a long time, so I didn't get all the episode references)

[malurette]

Et, transférer tes images de LJ à DW c'est pas possible ? ou trop compliqué ?

[flo_nelja]

Non, l'hébergeur de dreamwidth est différent, il permet juste de lier des images depuis un post dreamwidth, pas depuis n'importe quel site, en particulier pas AO3. J'ai essayé !

[malurette]

Ah bon ? j'ai pourtant lié sur AO3 des fanarts hébergés sur DW et pourtant que je sache ça marche ? ...ou ça ne s'affiche pour moi parce que je suis loggé sur mon compte DW quand je regarde mes pages AO3 ?

[flo_nelja]

OU alors ils ont changé ça ? Il faudrait que je vérifie si c'est le cas !

[bedes]

I wrote a ship manifesto on Pearl and Marina from the Splatoon series a few months ago, if you'd be down to read that! :] It's specifically written so even people who don't know much about Splatoon could read it. (DW) | (AO3) | (SQWA)

[flo_nelja]

Thank you! It's nice of you to tell it can be read by people outside the fandom, I need to read it now!

[reeby10]

I have a whole series of fanpoems for a wide variety of fandoms!

[flo_nelja]

Yesss, perfect! OH, and there are some fandoms I'm in! <3

[dragonofeternal]

Not exactly fanfiction, but in conversation with fandom, I published a poem called "Translation Notes" last year.

I also wrote a ship manifesto a few years back for my rarepair from Persona 2, because who can resist shipping a teen cult leader and his pyromaniac serial killer prophet?

I unfortunately can't help with the livejournal hosting, but if you're willing to shift where your pics are hosted, you could try making an account and uploading them to Squidge Images. Squidge's image hosting is free and allows for all types of uploaded images, including nsfw.

[flo_nelja]

Thank you!
Yeah I guess I could host elsewhere, livejournal was just very useful!
I can't make the link work for the Persona 2 rarepair, can you give it to me again?
