1st anniversary of Dreamwars, the DW Star Wars community

[annathecrow]

Hi everyone!

This week, Dreamwars the Star Wars fandom chat community celebrates the first year of its existence. :) Perhaps someone here might be interested in it?

Dreamwars is a low-effort place to just come and talk about Star Wars with other fans here on DW. Every week there’s a “chat corner” post with an optional discussion prompt, and people can chat the comments. That’s it! Don’t feel like talking about the prompt? You can talk about anything else, it’s an optional prompt for a reason ;) Not in a mood for SW? Just skip a week (or a month), no big deal.

The chat prompts vary quite a lot! We go through the movies, the newest shows, old Legends/EU books, general “theme topics”… as an example, these were the prompts for the last 4 chat corners:

• 2022-03-28: “Star Wars: Thrawn”
• 2022-04-04: “William Shakespeare’s Star Wars”
• 2022-04-11: “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” (we’ve been going through the entire saga, one movie per month, and the plan is to do the whole thing again this year as well :D )
• 2022-04-18: “architecture”

SW can be a bit divisive and people have opinions and feelings, but the goal is to make space for everyone, and I think it’s been working pretty well this past year. :)

I definitely have to thank the participants for this - you folks are great! We’re not a big community, or a busy one, but I’d say we really are a community now.

If any of this sounds interesting, come check out this week’s chat corner :)
