The Snowflake Challenge, Day 5, 6, 7 and 8

I’ve been away over the weekend, so here are several snowflakes in one post.

Day 5

Recommend a fannish or creative resource. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I’m not a native speaker of English, and sadly I don’t have a regular beta, so one of my most useful tools is ProWritingAid, an online editing tool. Not perfect, but far better than nothing. You can use it free, but then you can only edit 500 words at the time, so you have to have a little patience.

Day 6

Leave feedback for a fanwork. Or multiple fanworks. It can be as simple as I liked this to a detailed list of all the things you loved about the fanwork. The key is to leave some sort of feedback.

If you've already left feedback in the course of a previous challenge, it totally counts. But you're free to leave more feedback.

Afterwards, leave a comment in this post with the equivalent of "I did it!" If you feel so inclined, leave a link to the fanwork you left feedback for so others can check it out.

I did it! Well, I always leave comments on the fics I read, and I will try to comment as much as possible on other snowflakes.

Day 7:

In your own space, create a love meme for yourself. Let people tell you how amazing and awesome and loveable you really are. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so. Surf the comments and find people to give love to.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who find this scary. Mostly, i think, because it’s way too easy to wonder if anyone will commnet at all… But here goes. If you can think of something nice to say to me, please say it. Or post a gif of something I like.

Day 8

In your own space, share a favorite piece of original canon (a TV episode, a song, a favorite interview, a book, a scene from a movie, etc) and explain why you love it so much. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

This is a scene from a little known movie titled either At Sachem Farm or Uncorked or Trade Winds with Rufus Sewell and Minnie Driver. It’s a movie which never fails to make me feel happy, but sadly I don’t have it anymore. Rufus Sewell is complete adorable in this movie, and I love this particular scene so much. My father plays acoustic guitar, and one of my earliest memories are falling asleep with him playing in the living room. Acoustic guitar-music always makes me feel safe and loved.
