Are there any DW communities for your fandom(s) you'd recommend?: Sadly, not really. :(
Are there any communities for your fandom(s) outside DW you'd recommend?: I'll go ahead and rec the Ao3 community for Schitt's Creek. It's not really a "communiy" in the standard sense, since it's a fic tag, but beyond leaving kudos and comments, people talk about the show, about the characters, so I'd say there's a sense of love and community.
Rec a fanwork YOU created (one per fandom):
Harry Potter - The Dragon King, about the Weasleys grieving Fred from Charlie's POV. https://archiveofourown.org/works/3740458
Firefly - The Trouble With Wash, Mal's thoughts about Wash through the years. https://archiveofourown.org/works/4344113
Schitt's Creek - One, Twenty and Fifty, David and Patrick's wedding anniversaries over the years. https://archiveofourown.org/works/33782560
Rec a fanwork SOMEONE ELSE created (one per fandom):
Schitt's Creek - So most of the fics in the fandom are pretty good. But I'll go with the Around Town series by walnuts_and_berries, which covers various SC characters encountering David and Patrick. https://archiveofourown.org/series/2539690
Rec meta YOU created for your fandom (podcast, essay, etc.): None that I can find.
Rec meta SOMEONE ELSE created for your fandom:
Schitt's Creek - I'm trying to find a wonderful essay a friend wrote, to no avail. That being said, there are a lot of great podcasts - Gettin' Schittfaced comes to mind.
Buffy - They just wrapped a few months ago, but the Still Pretty podcast. They recapped the entire series.
Harry Potter - A friend of mine did a re-read of all seven books a few years ago. I can objectively say her analysis is great! https://lindalupos.dreamwidth.org/tag/hpreread17 Sadly her re-reads didn't get much attention.
Are you open to fandom friends on DW?: Sure, but I don't post as often as I used to and I don't post all that much about specific fandoms.
Are you open to followers in other spaces?: There's really no point. I do social media for work, so that's mostly how I use it these days. Ao3 and DW are probably the best places to follow me.

Are there any communities for your fandom(s) outside DW you'd recommend? There's a few Hades discords dedicated to specific pairings or to the general horniness of the fandom.

Rec a fanwork you created (one per fandom):
Harry Potter: To Weave Cold Starlight Severus/Lily, rated General, ~5600 words. Severus wants to make Lily a special gift of something she saw in a book in the library, but doesn't get the chance to until after they're both dead. It turns out to have surprising properties. Canonical deaths are mentioned.
Monkey Island: all blue and honey gold Guybrush/Elaine, rated Explicit, ~3100 words. Getting her grandfather declared un-dead enough to become Governor again was harder than Elaine bargained for, and she could use a break from this morning's mountain of paperwork. Set just after Escape from Monkey Island. Warnings for mild food play (sensual use of honey) and mild improv bondage (a silk shirt).
Rec a fanwork someone else created (one per fandom):
...These are all fics because I went straight for my AO3 bookmarks and it didn't occur to me until after I'd typed all this that I could rec art from my extensive DeviantArt collections. Oh well. I'll just drop a general link to that: my DA favourites - there's more than just fannish stuff there, but you can find a lot of Harry Potter (primarily Snape), Tolkien, MST3K, Doctor Who, Monkey Island, and lesser amounts of Discworld, My Little Pony, and a miscellaneous folder which is where things like HHG, Takin' Over the Asylum, Star Trek, etc. have ended up due to their smaller quantities in my collection.
Harry Potter: Fifty-three Stories About Snape and Black by
Monkey Island: All in the Name by
Takin' Over the Asylum: We Can Work It Out by (orphaned). Rated Teen, ~4000 words. A portrait of the five protagonists of Takin' Over The Asylum from the point of view of outsiders: a record shop customer, a taxi driver, a curious child, a student of electrical engineering and a tabby cat.

Date: 2022-03-14 08:21 am (UTC)Fandom(s): Where do I *begin*, lol? This post might be a start. For the list without all the commentary, I guess this would be it:
Rookie Blue
Lord of the Rings (books are better than the movies but I enjoy those too - but NOT the Hobbit films)
Women's Murder Club (TV)
1-800-Missing (TV)
Cybergeddon
Alphas
Push (2009)
Leverage (but not the sequel series)
Sue Thomas F.B.Eye
The Pretender
Rizzoli & Isles (TV)
Tomorrow When the War Began (2010)
Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain (1995)
Earth Girl, by Janet Edwards
Hive Mind, by Janet Edwards
Worldweavers, by Alma Alexander
Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman
FBI (currently airing TV show starring Missy Peregrym)
FBI: Most Wanted (spinoff of FBI)
I also enjoy (with qualifiers about which parts of canon) the following fandoms:
Smallville (S1-S3 only)
X-Men Original Movieverse (first three films only)
The Matrix (first film's my favorite, 2nd/3rd only sort of, didn't care for Resurrections that much, unlike much of the fandom)
Other fannish interests (things you love but can't say you're in the fandom for, exactly):
Flood - the 2007 British disaster film, Stick It - the 2005 gymnastics film, Pern, Talents - also by McCaffrey, The Dark Is Rising, Narnia, Tortall, Circle of Magic, Riddle-master, Song for the Basilisk, Valdemar, A Wrinkle in Time, Invitation to the Game, The Girl Who Owned a City…
I'll read fic for them, but I generally won't seek it out except maybe once in a blue moon.
Are there any DW communities for your fandom(s) you'd recommend?
No, I tried to create one for Rookie Blue but the fandom is just plain dead.
Are there any communities for your fandom(s) outside DW you'd recommend?
For L&C, I do recommend the message boards, but I haven't been to them for years (lcficmbs.com, I think? don't have the link offhand). Been too busy with other fandoms.
Rec a fanwork you created (one per fandom):
Oh boy… To save on time, I'm not going to list wordcount but I'll mention if I think you need a warning for something.
Alphas (TV): like air
First fic I wrote in an AU series (though it actually places 4th - but can be read on its own).
The Lord of the Rings - J. R. R. Tolkien: Dawn of Fealty
Was a toss-up between this one and an AU one I wrote awhile back, but this one I particularly like the summary and title as well as the ficlet.
Push (2009): Five Ways Nick Didn't Meet Cassie and One Way He Did
A 5+1 fic I'm particularly proud of; had a lot of fun coming up with the different AUs. Very much Nick/Cassie in some of them.
Leverage: Five Criminal Things Maggie Learned to Do (And One She Didn't)
Another 5+1 fic I think was one of my better ones. I particularly like the AU here.
Rookie Blue: you may be a chance I need to take
A canon divergence for 1x08. I almost went with the more recent tropey "Don't Have to Know Canon" fic I wrote for MFTF, but this one's better, I think.
X-Men (Original Timeline Movies): Four Ways X2 Could Have Ended (and One Way It Did)
An early 5+1 variant (I only got to 4+1 with this one) that I think turned out pretty good.
Chronicles of Narnia - C. S. Lewis: at the intersection of then and now
An AU where the Pevensies return to 2019 England instead of 1940 when they exit the wardrobe.
Smallville: Inception
A Clark/Chloe canon divergence for 2x01.
Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman: A Sure Bet
A fun outsider POV fic with some mutual pining.
Rizzoli & Isles: if these eyes are windows
A post-6x13 fic that actually shows some of the post-traumatic stress effects with Maura and Jane there for her.
FBI (TV 2018): drink of stinging grief
A very angsty double drabble.
Sue Thomas: F.B.Eye: Christmas Eve Decisions
A sappy holiday casefic.
Born of Hope (2009): Hope Preserved
An AU that changes who lives and dies.
C-16: FBI: Aftershock
8k of an adventure/trust-building fic for a show no one's heard of, lol.
Speed (1994): chosen and open our moment
Annie and Jack dealing with their fame - and loving each other.
A Little Princess - Frances Hodgson Burnett: Largesse
An obsessively-researched future fic, one of my earlier ones that I'm still quite proud of.
Tomorrow When the War Began (2010): Hanging by a Thread
An older fic of mine which gives some insight into Homer's mind during a couple key scenes, and adds a missing scene to it.
Women's Murder Club (TV): Fear for Courage
A Lindsay/Cindy case fic set just after To Drag and To Hold.
The Boxcar Children - Gertrude Chandler Warner: with a little luck, a little bit of faith
A complete rewrite of the original book, set in modern times. Inspired a good deal by the children's book The Girl Who Owned a City.
The Matrix (Movies): I have you to save my day
An AU of the first film.
The Secret Garden (1993): Perennials
A drabble sequence that finds a somewhat unusual solution to the Colin/Mary/Dickon triangle.
Rec a fanwork someone else created (one per fandom):
That's absolutely impossible for me to do. Look here and you'll see why, lol.
Rec meta you created for your fandom (podcast, essay, etc.):
I've done very little meta-writing, but this is an analysis of the plot threads for Rookie Blue.

No idea. I've read too many things over the years to recall something specific.
Rec something I didn't think to list:
Can't think of anything.
Are you open to fandom friends on DW?
Only sort of. I won't add back because I'm too busy and pretty much all my posts these days are public anyway. I definitely won't subscribe because I have too much to keep up with. But I don't mind people friending me.

Date: 2023-07-29 02:26 am (UTC)Fandom(s):
I’m mostly a lurker + enjoy a lot of things, so this list’s more about the ones I’m willing to interact with other people for!
Identity V (I haven’t played in a long time and don’t really follow it anymore, but I’m always up for some fic reading, if that counts :D)
Manga I’m currently invested in: Spy × Family, Cipher Academy, The Ichinose Family’s Seven Deadly Sins, Blue Period
Manga I’m just a casual reader to (but I do follow every release!): Chainsaw-man, Oshi no Ko, Ghostbuster Academy, Houseki no Kuni
Manhwa that I really like but haven’t found much fandom activity for: Park Nodeok’s For Your Love and Form Of Sympathy
Project Vinland’s releases: Vinland Saga, Yomi no Tsugai
Other fannish interests (things you love but can't say you're in the fandom for, exactly): Hmm… Mo Dao Zu Shi, I guess?
Are there any DW communities for your fandom(s) you'd recommend?
If something broader counts, I’d say
Are there any communities for your fandom(s) outside DW you'd recommend?
None, for now (though it’s mostly because I’m not very active in finding communities! :P)
Rec a fanwork someone else created (one per fandom)
I don’t have one for every fandom, but here goes!
[Identity V] Three Men before the End by Janitorbot - if JackNaib’s your thing, this work (or any work by the same author really) features great characterization and well-researched background details.
[MDZS] good hunting by baekhyun - I’d say it feels sober and concise to me, which pairs well with JC’s personality imo, and makes for a refreshing read in context of a genre such as Time-travel fix-it. Not everything’s all right with the world again, but we do have very touching moments of rekindling relationships.
[JJBA] Dissolve, slowly by megsaroni88 - Yeah, I know I didn’t list Jojo as a fandom up there but I did read some stuff for it. This one is Jotaro/Kakyoin and I’m rec’ing it because it’s one of the few that don’t make me feel like I’m having trouble reconciling the fannish characterization with the canon one.
Rec meta someone else created for your fandom:
Detangling JC, his motivations, & his feelings on WWX (i) by asideoftrashplease on tumblr: The lense it provides to canon really makes a lot of sense and explains everything - it’s like an eureka moment! I’m eagerly waiting for part ii, if there’ll be any.
Rec something I didn't think to list:
Hmm… none, for now.
Are you open to fandom friends on DW?
I’m very open to it as a concept, but I have doubts to whether it’s achievable in reality. There are few people on DW and I’m afraid not liking/thinking the same about the same thing will discourage any friendship from prospering.
Are you open to followers in other spaces? Sure! Do know that I’m not always reblogging fandom-related posts though.
