tommygirl | Fandom Snowflake Challenge: Day 11 & Day 12

Half hour left to my work day. And then I'll get to sit in traffic, but I've got my podcasts ready to go and that tends to make the commute much easier. I'm a pretty easy-going person most of the time, but I get into a car and my anger goes on high. I've been trying to work on it. Even when people are idiots, especially when people are idiots, because they remain oblivious and I'm the one that gets tense.

So let's continue Fandom Snowflake catch-up

Day 11 - In your own space, talk about a creator. Show us why you think they are amazing. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

This is really hard because there are so many great creators in fandom. I've been around for a long while and there are some that aren't as prolific anymore, but who really affected me with their works. There are others that have been around and still post a lot. And there are always new people that I discover as I go.

I'll say someone I admire and always read is

musesfool/

musesfool - she writes amazing stories in a number of fandoms and they're always so good.

I'm currently obsessed with Life of Bucky Barnes by Petite-Madame. The art is amazing and I'm constantly in awe of it. And the accompanying story by

stephrc79 is my go-to read of the moment. I love their takes on Bucky and Steve.

There are a lot of other creators I continue to admire and adore, too many to name or rec here. Though I feel I'd be a terrible partner in crime if I wasn't thankful for

steph /

iamtheenemy - we go back to Nsync fandom days, a mutual love of Lance Bass and continue over the years to get the other obsessed with all sorts of fandom things. Neither of us are as involved as we once were, but we had a fun reccing journal and she still writes some stuff that I always love.

Day 12 - In your own space, post a rec for fannish spaces and resources - comms, challenges, twitters, tumblrs, etc. Tell us about where you hang out. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I haven't been as up on fandom in recent years as I was before. I always take part in Yuletide no matter what, so that's something I always stay aware of.
