Fortress Of Good Fortune

Hi, luvs!

If you haven't voted yet on the 2015 Halloween Challenge Poll, please do so in the next few days. I'd like to get more feedback! :)

The stories are up for artist claiming at the DCU_Bang. Mine is one of the offerings. :)

I've sketched out a rough outline for Book III of The Raven And The Nightingale. It'll be my ultimate relaxation project as I've got plenty of time. I haven't even finished posting Book II yet! :)

I've got a handful of fanfics in the queue that will gradually see posting. They're in various stages but should be coming close to finished, whether in first draft form or revision stage. Most is DC stuff but there's some Marvel in there, too. And some Jurassic Park! :)

Hi, luvs!

I closed the poll asking about whether or not you would be interested in a 2015 Dick Grayson Fic/Art Challenge, and there was enough interest to convince me to go ahead. :) I'll be posting the Challenge this weekend. I'm thinking of officially kicking things off on April 1st. Usually I do it on the first day of spring, but it didn't work out this year. Besides, the King of Puns would appreciate the date, wouldn't he? ;)

We're going to celebrate our Dickie-bird's 75th anniversary, so save those Grayson-centric fanworks 'til you see my post! Coming Soon!!!

Hi, luvs!

I just realized that it's the 75th anniversary of our original Robin and delicious Dick Grayson this year. Yum! :) I'd had no plans to host a Dick Grayson Challenge (sadly, so many people leaving LJ have left my Challenges not very viable) but since it is a special anniversary, I re-considered and thought I might host a final Dick Grayson Challenge, but only if you indicate your interest. Please take a moment and answer the polls and allow me to gauge the level of interest. I would very much appreciate it. Thank you! :)

As always, the Challenge would cover all aspects of Dick's life: his career as Robin, Nightwing, Batman, etc., and would encourage works that feature him as a child, in gen works, or slash or het pairings.

Hi, luvs! I'm taking a short break from profic and want to work on some fanfic for the rest of the week. What story should I work on later today and tomorrow? Note that the winner will not necessarily be posted next, but will be worked on the most this week. :) If you're feeling chatty, tell me why you voted as you did. Thanks! :)

Hi, luvs! I'm riding my Avengers Muses and the fandom while they're hot! ;) Who out there is just as obsessed as I am? *waves at flist*

Which pairings/threesomes intrigue you? Fill out the poll and you can also put down whatever pairings/threesomes/anysomes not listed. :)

Hi, luvs! I've been mulling over ideas for Steve/Diana fics and I just felt like throwing this question out there: what genres do you enjoy reading most when this couple stars in a story?

I included Horror because according to DC, Diana's book is now a horror comic!

Historical can be any era but Classical Greece is always a winner! ;)

Certain genres seem well-suited to certain characters, don't they?

[Poll #1792777]

Darn it, I forgot to add 'Fish' as a choice in the 2011 LJ Fifth Anniversary Fic Request Build-A-Fic Poll. So, if you're a fish lover like me, comment here with your faves! I might be able to fit the top fishes into the fics (say that five times fast!). Maybe if the characters are at a banquet or restaurant, LOL! Anyway, fish must not be neglected! ;)

For Public Enemies fans, your poll is here. And there's fish! ;)

Hi, luvs! Even though I've cut back on Challenges this year, I still enjoy hosting them! And may I say a big THANK YOU! to all the people who contribute their fanworks and make these Challenges a success. :)

A few notes on the poll: the choices are a mix of Challenge themes I've hosted in the past and may host in the future. Clark/Bruce gets a lot of love through other fests, challenges, and gift exchanges, but I figured if I offered one with a specific theme, it could work. :)

Valentine's Day and Halloween are not part of this poll because they are the two Challenges I will always host. I'm an incurable romantic, and love Halloween, so there you go! ;) Also, romance as a genre generally fits with Valentine's Day, so I didn't put that in as a choice.

Winter Holidays offers two things: just a general theme, or more specific.

Dark themes can be horror, torture, assault (psychological and physical), war, violence, death, etc.

Historical genre can be canon (Earth-2 heroes in the 1930s, etc.) or AU.

The Smallville theme means fanworks set in Clark's hometown (or somehow connected to it) in all 'verses while the second option is for fanworks strictly in the SV 'verse (though if you want to bring in Christian Bale's Bruce, I'm cool with that). ;)

As always, all Challenges (unless otherwise specified) are ALL fanworks: fic, art, icons, manips, story covers, wallpapers, vids, fanmixes, etc.

Please feel free to add comments! Challenges are hosted by me because they're fun to do and with themes I enjoy, but I also love to consider YOUR preferences, too! :)

[Poll #1780622]

[Poll #1776771]

The results are in! The genre for Bruce/Dick will be hurt/comfort and the genre for Steve/Diana will be slice-of-life! Thanks for voting. :)
