I’m sad to say that the thirty-eighth round of Small Fandoms Fest has come to an end, but we’ve had so many great submissions, and now we get to look forward to next round!

For those of you wondering we had 53 submissions this round in 32 different fandoms, as well as 3 fandom pimps. Thank you so much to those of you who made the move to DW with us and to those of you who are just finding us. I appreciate that you chose to play in this sandbox despite all the other holiday challenges and exchanges you have to choose from.

Thanks so much to everyone who participated in this round, whether you submitted prompts, wrote fanfic, created fanart, or pimped your fandom, your involvement helped make this round a huge success! ♥

Participation buttons will be available shortly, and the call for prompts for the thirty-NINTH round will go out on May 1st, so mark your calendar! *g

It's challenge time!

Comment with Just One Thing you've accomplished in the last 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing that you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling particularly accomplished!

Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!

Nothing is too big, too small, too strange or too cryptic. And in case you'd rather do this in private, anonymous comments are screened. I will only unscreen if you ask me to.

Go!

Sunday. Again sunny and rather comfortable day, not too cold! :) In the morning I went to the meeting of our neighborhood association. In the afternoon did some tribal houseworks, wrote 2 letters, and painted the wooden verandah with waterproof paint etc. Rather a busy day and no proper tea time XD Though I rather overate at supper so now (in the evening) I'm quite full X(

Anyway, at least I didn't waste time on this weekend :)

I went a few days of January without taking videos, apart from when it was snowing or I was on travel, which wasn't very frequently. Consequently there are a lot of cats as well as a few of Humuhumu's drawings.

I got excellent mail yesterday, thank you, [personal profile] spikedluv, for the Valentine's card. It's always lovely to get stuff that isn't a bill ♥

Yesterday I also went to see Kangaroo at the cinema. It's such a feel good, easy watch film and I enjoyed it so much.

We'd gone to Subway for dinner beforehand, and also picked up a Subway cookie and bread Too Good to Go bag afterwards -- four empty but still warm and soft, foot longs and a big bag of cookies for £3.50 -- so that meant a sandwich for tea, and also some things needed for James' bait for work partially sorted.

Feb 1st today, and for the month [personal profile] dreamersdare is hosting Stuff I Love: Top Ten Edition. More details are at the post, but generally the aim is simple, each week in Feb you'll be challenged to write a themed top ten list with a focus on different aspects of media. It sounds fun, and very low pressured. If you want to see more, you can do so here

I'm going to give it a go, and am looking forward to seeing what other people love, too.

Festivids!

Here is my card for the Valentines Bingo over in [community profile] allbingo. The fest runs from February 1-28. (See all my 2026 bingo cards.)

If you'd like to sponsor a particular square, especially if you have an idea for what character, series, or situation it would fit -- talk to me and we'll work something out. I've had a few requests for this and the results have been awesome so far. This is a good opportunity for those of you with favorites that don't always mesh well with the themes of my monthly projects. I may still post some of the fills for free, because I'm using this to attract new readers; but if it brings in money, that means I can do more of it. That's part of why I'm crossing some of the bingo prompts with other projects, such as the Poetry Fishbowl.

Underlined prompts have been filled.

Rabbit, rabbit! January really came apart toward the end, but we are catching just enough of the nor'easter to snow February in and I have just learned of the existence of the cobalt crust fungus, which looks like scales of lapis on dead wood. Hestia has been dealing with the sub-zero wind chill temperatures by means of aggressive basking.

[community profile] allbingo is running a Valentines Fest this month, accompanied by a Valentines Meet and Greet. These are good activities for folks with goals relating to art, writing, blogging, making friends, and so on.

I've been participating in [community profile] snowflake_challenge, where lots of folks want to see more activity on Dreamwidth. While researching community activities, I came across the idea of thematic meet and greet events. That seemed like something which might work here, given a membership of several hundred people and a new theme each month. So I made one for this month's theme. It gives people a place to meet folks with similar interests, and to squee about the current theme.

Here is the basic outline. Fill in as much or as little of it as you wish, depending on your interests as they relate to the Valentines Fest.

1. What’s your favourite hot beverage? How do you make it?

I love hot cocoa but I also love hot tea. I brew up a cup of black tea and add a tablespoon of mango nectar. It’s really good. I love mango anything. Try it you might find out it’s good. You can also use peach nectar. But I’ve I have to choose I think I would. Choose hot cocoa. I crave chocolate all the time. I’m a little allergic to it. It get nausea but does that stop me, hell no. I eat chocolate every chance I get.

Now, a question for you? What is your favorite hot drink? And if you had problems with eating chocolate would you you still eat it like I do. Inquiring minds want to know.

As I said I wanted to, I went to see Hamnet and it lived up to my expectations – Read more... ) And yeah, I know there's been a backlash subsequently, and some valid criticisms have been made too.

I knew less about Song Sung Blue going in, Read more... ) Sometimes it’s too broad, but it is warm hearted.

I posted about it more fully here, but I went to see the extended edition of The Fellowship of the Ring on a big screen, and it was well worth it, even though there was no break, and it required planning and having to put up with some people’s smartphone addiction. The ticket was cheaper than it normally is for films at that cinema at that time. Is this what cinema has to do to keep going – hark back to the glory days of a quarter of a century ago? If the other two have been released, they weren't in my neck of the woods, I think.

I don't know if I'll be doing this monthly, we'll see what the year brings. I'm glad it's February, personally.
