30 Days of Fan Fiction Meme, Day 22
Jul. 20th, 2011 08:17 pm22 – Have you ever participated in a fest or a Big Bang? If so, write about your favorite experience in relation to one. If not, are there any you've thought about doing? And if not, why not?
Rarely. When I was new to LJ (around '04), one of my first activities was a Blake's 7 ficathon, which introduced me to a lot of my early LJ friends. I subsequently did a Farscape ficathon and a couple of smaller ones. I enjoy these, but given all the irons in my fire, they almost always get cut from consideration. Often, the fan fic I'm personally inspired to do--when I have time to write at all--takes time from my original fic to the point that my original output is almost nil. I enjoy doing challenges and writing to prompts, but the fic and original writing closest to my heart comes first, and there's rarely additional writing time.
My favorite experience is probably the B7 ficathon because it was new and exciting, and I got to meet lots of new B7 fans.
( Rest of Questions )
