Snowflake Challenge #3: Communities, Fests, and Challenges

[akk]

Sadly, I can't really answer this one. Aside from the snowflake_challenge (and promoting itself kind of doesn't make sense, neh?) I didn't participate in any challenges or fan fests in recent years. My writing style and speed doesn't mix well with prompts and deadlines. I did a couple of them on LJ (comm's gone) and on the Emperor's Edge forum (also gone).

Regarding communities... ditto. I'm still searching for communities on DW that cover my fannish interests. Of all that list at least a few of them, fancake is the most active, but the overwhelming majority of posts is not about anything I care about. The most active fandoms in my friends' circle are currently Guardian and The Untamed, both of which don't really ring with me.

I don't know of any active CLAMP communities - aside from a certain Discord server.
Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers still has its mailing list Ranger-L (think two mails per year at most) and its nicely revived homepage www.betamountain.org, but it was never really a part of the blogosphere.

I'd love getting recommendations for comms, though. Maybe I'm just not good at searching for them. :)

Ooo, I feel your pain wrt style/speed and deadlines; it makes participating in comms hard even when you can find them. I wish I had some CLAMP recs for you, but everyone I know in those fandoms are cosplayers

edit: Oh! ruuger mentioned some Babylon 5 comms, though!

Thank you. I'll check them out. :)
