"Create a list of at least three fannish things you'd love to receive, something you've wanted but were afraid to ask for - a fannish wish-list of sorts."
• translation of anything I've written – especially into German or a Scandinavian language
If you know me, you know translations are a sure way to this translator/language nerd's heart! I've been lucky and delighted to have quite a few of my fics translated, but so far it's been mostly into Chinese (which I don't speak at all), plus French and Russian (which I can puzzle out a bit, but don't really speak). Seeing something I wrote in German (which I speak fluently) or a Scandinavian language (which I can kind of halfway guesswork my way through, cobbling together my English and my German and the tiny bit I've studied of both Swedish and Icelandic) would be THE COOLEST.
• beta-reading friends, or just friends who enjoy bouncing writing ideas back and forth
I know this is not exactly something one can just request off a list, but I do some of my best brainstorming for stories by talking (/writing) it out in conversation with friends, so I really enjoy those kinds of writing brainstorming conversations where you toss a lot of ideas into the mix and see what sticks. Basically: I like to chatter on about ideas, but only to someone who also enjoys that and definitely won't be bored or annoyed by it. :-)
• podfic of any of my fics!
In fact, I have an open policy about all transformative works – if you translate/podfic/fanart/etc. anything I've written, I will love it! Just let me know about it, so I can see it and be fittingly excited!
• Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries recs
I'm new to this fandom, but as usual I've discovered it later than almost everyone else... If anyone has recs of well-written, in character Miss Fisher fics, I want 'em! Especially Phryne/Jack, of course, but also anything featuring Mac being awesome. Or Jane. Or Dot. Or, well, all of them really.
Day 7
"Create a fanwork."
I'm currently madly at work on a multi-chapter fic for a too-soon deadline, so I'm going to count that!
