Day 9
In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you have created. It can be your favorite fanworks that you've created, or fanworks you feel no one ever saw, or fanworks you say would define you as a creator.Ahhhh self-rec day. It's weird because it used to be that i would say "I don't know that I have three things that I am extraordinarily proud of, but like...this year I created content on a larger scale than years past so I actually HAVE three things.
To be fair, though, one of them ends up as a simultaneous self-rec and rec of a related work because I see the two as inextricably linked at this point.
Also, I was telling myself I should talk about something that WASN'T football RPF, but you know what, ehhhhhh I like what i like and I do the work I do. I made a lot of podfic this year in a lot of fandoms I don't usually record in and they are lovely and had I not done all this work writing my own fics for football rpf I would probably be exceedingly proud of them, but they were just sort of.....a thing I did and have no real sentimental attachment to, which is unusual when it comes to my fanworks. It's a bit of a mentality shift. I could also talk about ALL my football rpf fics this year because I'm proud of all of them. I might. I might not. Is it gauche to just say READ EVERYTHING I EVER DID? Maybe, but it's my journal, so...
So, here are the works and then I'll elaborate under the cut:
- Loose Ends [Podfic] - football rpf (Dele/Eric Dier)
- We're Less Than Half as Close as I Want to Be - football rpf (Christian Eriksen/Vincent Janssen)
- Merry Christmas, Here's to Many More - football rpf (Christian Eriksen/Vincent Janssen)
- Five Times Christian Eriksen Helped his Teammates with Their Problems - football rpf
Yes, yes. Lack of diversity. I know what I like and I like what I do. It's also all from this year. I have quite a few older podfics that I like, but this year was all about me getting back into writing and I'm pretty comfortable with where I am as a podficcer, but where I am as a writer has grown by leaps and bounds this year and still has so far to go, so I'm going to talk about all these things
( In which I fail to sell you on why my work is great and mostly talk too much... )
