Instead of reading bandom_holidays stories I got stuck in a few snowflake_challenge -entries, and ended up WRITING!

The double-drabble Another Roadside Attraction byturps inspired me to write my own double-drabble which adds a part to her story but can also be read as a standalone.

[edited because I hadn't been ready! *blushes because of premature e-postation*]

I'm late, but that's what happens when I spend New Years Eve at friends and then time at my parents. I had great fun there but no time for memes. But I don't want to miss this year, so here we go:

snowflake_challenge  - Day 1



I always liked to rec fics from the last year, but when I look back at 2016, there are actually only three works that I posted over the last 12 months, starting only in September.

But I do like them, so they will be my recs:

1) 100 Ways To Say “I Love You” (not really 100, actually)
It's a collection of drabbles in the Killjoys-universe (bandom) inspired by 100 prompts. I only used 17 in the end, but I quite like how those drabbles turned out to paint a bigger picture of the Killjoys' lives in the desert.

2) Speaking of pictures - for Bandom Big Bang I created Art for "No Future In Our Dreaming" by Prophetic. I was very inspired by the story and my love for London, so I made some art from photographs I had actually taken myself in London over the years.

3) Last, but definitely not least, I took part in Drabble Day 2016 where I wrote drabbles for 10 different fandoms (The Lord of the Rings, Sherlock, Bandom, Star Wars, Fear the Walking Dead, Please Like Me, My Mad Fat Diary, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Alles was zählt) in 12 hours. That was great fun and an inspiring end to the year.

snowflake_challenge - Day 1



1)  Artwork and icons
Today also is the reveal of the creators for the bandom_holidays fanwork exchange, so I can link to what I created for this challenge:

Artwork and Icons for were_duck

I had written some Killjoys Haikus before and was inspired by them to make the artwork and add two more haikus just for were_duck.


2)  Drabbles
I seem to have the best ideas but cannot write long storylines for them. That's why I like drabbles so much. They're only 100 words, not too many possibilities for grammar-mistakes, but they still tell a story. That's what I try to accomplish.
I found out about this through two Drabble Days, organized by dear friends. Those challenges were great fun and I'm still happy about what I created:

My Drabble Days


3)  Fic
I have written longer pieces. If "longer" means about 1000 words. One fic, actually.
It's for the first fandom I actually participated in, "Alles Was Zählt", a German soap with a gay storyline.
It's revealing or defining as it's explicit and about a threesome, and I like explicit fics about threesomes.

Wait

Happy Holidays!

My holidays really have been great so far. I took part in the bandom_holidays fanwork-exchange and had a lot of fun creating for my recipient in November.

Today (i.e. 25.12.) I woke up to the reveals and got a wonderful moving story by a still anonymous author:

Slow Burn

So if you like reading about Frank/Gerard, touring, angst, anal sex, break up, pining and a hopeful ending, go there immediately.

You can check out the other gifts at AO3, like I will do over the next days.

Happy holidays, indeed.

Title: untitled rimming ficlet
Author: winterlover
Fandom: Bandom, Killjoys AU
Characters: Party Poison/Gerard
Word Count: 164
Rating: explicit
Summary: (see notes below)
Warnings/Spoilers: none
Author's Notes: I don’t own any of those characters. They belong to themselves or to their original creators.
Again I didn’t remember a prompt correctly in an internet-less hour, so this is NOT for a bandom_meme prompt but for a different one: “Party Poison doesn't like rimming because it makes him come super!fast”.
But still thanks to akamine_chan. ;-)

untitled because I didn't want to spend more time on thinking about a title than writing this ficlet

snowflake_challenge 2014 - Day 13

In your own space, talk about setting yourself a fannish goal. Big or small, it doesn't matter. Some great examples include: complete a bingo, sign-up for a Big Bang, write that fic you've been thinking about for years, podfic that story that you love, make a fanmix for your fandom, post that bit of meta or reclist you keep postponing. Maybe resolve to be better at leaving feedback, or answering comments.

My goal is to continue creating. Icons, art, drabbles were fun to do last year, so I'd like to do more in 2014.
Maybe I'll even try to write something longer.

But until then - something short:

Title: Your Songs Know What You Do In The Dark
Author: winterlover
Fandom/Characters: Bandom Spencer, Ryan
Word Count: 100
Rating: none
Summary: Brendon’s on stage and Spencer’s at home.
Warnings/Spoilers: none
Author's Notes: I don’t own any of those characters. They belong to themselves. Nothing I write about has actually happened. Except when it has. But I wouldn’t know.
Not betaed. 100 words can only mean about 99 mistakes, so I’ve risked it.
Title based on the Fall Out Boy-song, of course.
