Snowflake, Day Two

[traintracks]

Day 2
In your own space, promote three communities, challenges, blogs, pages, Twitters, Tumblrs or platforms and explain why you love them.

I'm going to try to do ones my flist hasn't already done (AO3 and daily_deviant in particular even though they're both fantastic).

hd_tropes -- because it was a really well-run fest that turned out some amazing stuff and also gave me the chance to write a trope I'd been wanting to but had shied away from precisely because it *was* a trope. Kudos to marianna_merlo and kedavranox for running the fest so awesomely. It was a great experience, and I'd love to participate again.

hp_3somes -- because there just needs to be more threesome/moresome fic in the world! Maybe it's because I'm writing a moresome right now that this is coming up for me, but I'm really grateful a comm like this exists for all kinds of HP combinations. And while I'm not sure if they're going to have a fest like last year's, I loved participating in it and would definitely want to do something like that again some time.

quibbler_report -- which consistently reports on great rarepair stories and art in HP fandom. I've read and seen some really great stuff from watching this comm that I would never have come across otherwise. Plus, every time I get recc'd there, I squee a little bit. ;-)

Oh yes! Quibbler report is one I follow daily!

\o/ The others rock too!

I used to not know what made Quibbler different, so I thought they liked everything except my H/D. I was quite sad about it, really. LOL! *faceplam*

mari ran tropes, too! :P

And we'd love to have you again this year. <3

BLARG! I fixed it! :-P I am CRAP and remembering who does what where, and I think I just got this confused with hurtfest, which you're running alone, yes? You BOTH deserve a lot of credit; Tropes was beautifully done. <3

(So sorry, Mari!!!)

[kedavranox.livejournal.com]

Thanks, bb! I am running hurtfest alone. :)

Thank you! ♥ That's really lovely of you to mention tropes. I can't wait to start promoting this year's round.

I've never been a big threesomes person, but if they ran an exchange again this year, I might be tempted!

I loved having the opportunity, with hp3, to explore the love one can have for more than one person. And I'd never really written Next Gen like that. I had a blast writing H/D as background. ;-) And I pinch hit (pinched hit? pinch hitted? LOL) there, too, and wrote something I never would have otherwise and loved it!

Tropes is just plain awesome. I can't wait! :-)

[tropes-mod.livejournal.com]

LOL! I actually love pinch hitting.

I'm gonna go stalk the com to find your fics, hahaha. If I were to do hp3, I'd definitely ask for.write next gen.

ACK D:

LOL! Hello, 'tropes_mod'! You're looking very official today.

Why am I not watching hp_3somes? I've been really into threesomes this past year.

[traintracks.livejournal.com]

The comm itself is not very active at all. Not sure why. I know Kitty is really busy with other things, so that's probably a lot of it. But the exchange was a blast!

[0idontknow0]

Hopefully it sees some more action this year.

[kitty_fic]

Yay! hp_3somes! ♥

I know you mod about a million things, so I'm not expecting it -- just saying that if you did another one, that would be awesome. :-D
