Fandom Snowflake Challenge Day 12

Day 12


In your own space, talk about what you bring to fandom. It can be something tangible, or not. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.


I think what I bring to fandom is support and cheer-leading. I don't know about the rest of you, but I personally get excited when I see that someone has commented on my work. Because of this, I try to do the same and I also try to say something that goes beyond "Nice job!" I want to let that author know that I like their characterizations or their plot development. Admittedly, I fall back on "gorgeous" and "beautiful" when I see an icon or artwork post, but my intent is still genuine. Another thing I like to do is nominate stories for awards.

One awards site in particular that I'd like to pimp today is Willowy Goodness Awards. Read through the great list of nominees and make sure to nominate your favorites from 2014!

You are one of the true mainstays of fandom, believe me! Your support means the world to lots of people... including me!
