Challenge #1
Update your fandom information. Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
I updated my profile on AO3 quite recently (over the summer, I think--I added a clause about do not use my works to train any AI or machine learning engine), and I happen to have reread it just a couple days ago. It's all still good.
As usual I had to edit down some of the other text to make room because my profile bio is Right At the limit of character length. FYI if you didn't know, all the html tags, both those you enter yourself and the ones AO3 adds for you when you click 'save', are counted in the total. So even if the character counter says you have a few characters to spare, you don't.
I should do something with my bios on DW and Tumblr. Note to self: revisit those.
Challenge #2
In your own space, set yourself some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
Fannish goals:
- At least 50 hours of podfic
I'd like to surpass 2022 when I made over 60, but 2023 just scraped past 50 so I'll keep that goal
- Finish With Such Impossible Conveyance multivoice started in 2020
This is dependent on getting remaining lines from other people
- Join another fic exchange
I did my first non-podfic exchanges in 2023, writing short pieces for each of the relationshipping exchange and the Folgers Flash exchange.
- Add chapters to WIP fics
In particular, frostflowers (jadecest drabble series) and the flames the sword (jgy/xy juvenile delinquent bonnie&clyde fic)
Non-fannish goals:
- Pass (or at least attempt) JLPT N2
- Ditto HSK2
