snowflake challenge day 1

[green]

From today's snowflake_challenge: In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you have created. It can be your favorite fanworks that you've created, or fanworks you feel no one ever saw, or fanworks you say would define you as a creator.

Okay, so I picked three works. One is a vid, one is art, and one is fic. I will tell you why I picked them!

Title: Rebel Girl
Fandom: Whip It
Medium: Vid
Summary: A love letter to Bliss.
Why I chose this: I think it's my best vid to date. It has its problems, but it's fun and makes me want to dance and I think I got my point across well. (that point being BLISS IS AWESOME) The download link doesn't work and I lost the file on my old computer, but you can still watch it on YouTube.

Title: TBP-era Mikey
Fandom: My Chemical Romance
Medium: Art
Summary: Mikey Way rocking out.
Why I chose this: It's the best vector (fan)art I've done. I hope I can make Inkscape work for me this well. (I did this one in Illustrator)

Title: Choose Your Own (a Mikeyway Adventure)
Fandom: My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Cobra Starship, The Young Veins/PATD/whatever Ryan Ross is doing these days
Medium: Fic (explicit and underage)
Summary: A high school AU choose your own adventure fic revolving around Mikey Way. :D
Why I chose this: This isn't the best writing I've ever done, nor is it representative of my usual stuff. But it was FUN, dammit. I had so much fun writing it and putting it together, and I'm very proud of it.

As always, feedback is love. ♥ HAPPY NEW YEAR, everyone!

I still do love that Mikeyway art that you did. Will have to check out the vid, 'cause I loved Whip It. *hugs you* Happy new year, bb.

This is probably going to be my favorite challenge. I'm systematically going through everyone's posts and I love seeing people being proud of their own works. That said, that Mikey Way art is GORGEOUS. Also, heyo, I thought I was the only one that loved Whip It that much.

I've been trying to go through all the posts, too, but OMG SO MANY TABS. I've gotten through maybe 10 of them? And now it's time for the next challenge already!

Thank you so much for the feedback on the Mikey art. And Whip It is so wonderful. :D

I'm secretly a big fan of works that make use of the internet, be it by hyperlinking (like this did), through creative use of fonts or via embedded media*. I had a lot of fun trying out the various storylines.
also: MIKEYWAY!! :DD

*obvious downside is not being able to put it on my kindle (which I use to do the majority of my fic reading these days, thanks to AO3).

Thank you so much for reading and commenting! It means a lot that it's enjoyed. I wish I could figure out a way to put it up on Ao3 (I guess I could do it chapter by chapter and then edit it with links to particular chapters?) sorry about the kindle thing.

don't know how you feel about the classics, but have you seen this? It's been funded and will be coming out eventually. I know I'm getting a digital copy but I don't know how that'll work. if I figure out how to do it, I'll make a e-reader-compliant version of mine. :D

Doing it by chapter might work, but sounds like a lot of work. *checks multichaptered work on kindle* Hmm, apart from the chapter headings, there seems to be little to no separation from one chapter to another. Meaning especially with the shorter parts you might get more than one "chapter" showing on the display at the same time. Could probably work around that by adding a bunch of empty lines at the end of each segment? An Ao3 / e-reader-compliant version would be rad, for sure. :D
Looks like some people have given this a try, already, right here on Ao3. Too late for me in the day to check how they did it, but maybe something there helps.


NO! I had not seen that, but it is totally relevant to my interests, awesome, thanks! :D Ryan North, man. I still remember that name from the Dinosaur Comics. Totally fell off the webcomic bandwagon a couple years ago, tho. (hey, more time for fandom, whatever ^^)

Thank you for finding that for me! :D
